I have been wanting the Fleece 5.0 since before Christmas. I was going to get it for my Birthday but then it was sold out in my size. I still want one to help endure the Michigan winters.
I want it for 2 reasons:
1) To easily get through security at the airport by having everything in a removable vest.
2) To put all those heavy electronics in my pockets to avoid paying for weight overages in my checked luggage. And it seems like it would distribute the weight more evenly than a backpack!
I'm partial to the Quantum Jacket but it looks like it's been discontinued
Oh well I guess the Evolution Travel Jacket would make a nice alternative. Not sure how convenient having an iPad in a pocket on your back would be but at least it wouldn't dig into my gut. Would work well for the Vespa though.
It is so hard to narrow down. I would like the Cotton Hoodie, Soft Shell Jacket, and Fleece 5.0 Jacket. I would get the most use out of the Hoodie but the Fleece would be great when I visit the family in MN.
