I have had the jacket only a few weeks now but on the 70° plus days it's been great. Went for a 200 mile ride yesterday in the 90's and I was more comfortable than if I had used my flannel. I wish it came in lighter colors, not just black. It still gets hot in the sun. Also the jacket kind of slides back down my back pulling the zipper into my neck which can be uncomfortable. I have not tested the waterproof liner yet but it seems legit and goes on and off the jacket well enough.
Thank you for the detailed feedback, David! We're glad to hear the Yakima Mesh Jacket has been keeping you comfortable on those warmer rides, and that it performed well even during a 200-mile ride in 90-degree temperatures. That's exactly what a good mesh jacket is designed to do.
We also appreciate your honest observations about the fit and color options. Feedback like yours helps both us and the manufacturer understand what riders are looking for. The zipper contact at the neck and the jacket settling backward are useful notes, and we'll be sure to pass them along. We hope the waterproof liner proves just as impressive when the weather eventually turns.
Thanks again for choosing Eagle Leather, and we wish you many comfortable miles ahead!
