I'm looking for a cold weather textile replacement for my leather jacket and have narrowed the choice down to either a Tourmaster Transition Series 3 or their Epic jacket, both in hi-viz yellow. I have the Tourmaster Intake Air 3 mesh and have been very pleased with it's performance during the summer, but it's just not suited for the early commutes when the temperatures drop into the 30's. I'm wanting to stick with Tourmaster since I wear their Flex pants and the back zipper will match up. Everything I have read describes these two jackets as being almost identical, so without being able to try them both on, I wanted to get an opinion from someone who has worn both and can tell me the difference. From all the reviews I've read, the Epic may be a little heavier. I'd really like to find a shop that had them in stock where I could try them on and then sit on the bike to see how they feel, but can't seem to find them in stock at any local shops. Any help will be truly appreciated. Looks like for now, it's time to pull out the leather an go for a ride up the Trace this morning. Ride safe.
