I'm a firm believer that all-weather gear is a godsend to folks like me who ride in all weather. While I don't really care for thermal wear—as the temps where I'm from hardly ever dip below the 70s—I certainly have a strong appreciation for waterproof gear that can quickly be convertible to breathable gear in hot weather.
T.UR, the adventurous spinoff of the Italian gear maker Tucano Urbano, has a new adventure jacket called the Roadbook that fits that description, and then some. Made out of Polystrong 600D Pro, the T.UR Roadbook jacket features inserts made out of a Profiber stretch fabric, making the jacket incredibly adaptable to base-layers and other clothing depending on the climate. Reinforcements are also provided by the high tenacity Xtr-M mesh and leather on the forearms.
