Anyone order this long sleeve fleece jersey?

[Lister Farrar]

Has anyone has ordered this? Just wondering about the weight. Looking for lighter than neoprene or winter jackets.

Hi Lister,

If this is the jacket I think it is, it is more of a fleece jersey. No good for keeping the wind out and not really great for any kind of rain. It would be good for an outer layer over Jersey when the temperature is in the 50s. Weight wise it is quite light.

I got one way back in the baby blue days, and it what I wear every day (in the winter). I haven't worn a jacket yet this winter. I wear a very thin merino wool long sleeve and then the fleece. I start most rides with a vest, and sometimes, like today, a third layer of arm warmers pulled over top. The vest and AW's can be removed while riding. I find jackets too warm and/or sweaty. I would wear a rain jacket if I could find one that breathed and was waterproof.

when the temperature is in the 50s

Seems a little heavy for those temps...

Geoff,

Your right, I should have put in a clause - I'm a complete wimp when it comes to the cold and likely need one more layer then everyone else.
