jackets for the hot weather (nklr)

[Stuart Mumford]

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 Chris check out http://www.brosh.com . I bought one of their summer jackets and I like it just fine. I crash tested it once and it passed. The finished quality of it isn't stellar, but it is durable, very cool and won't overheat you in the HOT weather. I hope I don't need it, but if I do, I would much rather have some Kevlar on my arms than a t-shirt. CA Stu A13
