Does anyone know where can I find a web site for these jackets? Where are the best prices? ----------------- Hey Jim, I have a Kilimanjaro and I've been very happy with it. Totally waterproof, lots of pockets, zip out liner, etc. Check out www.intersportfashions.com. Shop around before you buy. I found prices for the First Gear stuff really varied among retailers. I'm pretty sure fellow lister Fred Hink sells them. Service from him is great.

While on the subject of jackets.......... Does anyone know of a rand or material that would be good for my needs? (i.e. I'm in a desert that gets hot as blazes, but I want protection while on the roads) he leather I wear normally is great for protection going to and from work, and about town, but I really would like something that ain't so hot! New Mexico is a killer with it's heat ("At least it's a dry heat!", someone opined. My reply, "So's a freaking oven!") If anyone has good ideas, please send them this way...... Chris Astier
