    the altura is great for both summer and winter..in the summer when its a bit wet i use it with just a baselayer under it..in the winter its warm and waterproof and you light up like a christmas tree when any car lights shine on it..thumbs up for the altura from me

    I have one.Very good cut, and fit,well made too.Highly visible,especially in low light dawn dusk scenarios aswell as reflecting car headlights.
    Nowhere near as breathable,as my Gill Pro speed,but a good jacket for the money,noonetheless.
