Hi Andrew,
That looks like a good jacket with everything you need — waterproof/breathable, CE-approved protectors and at a great price. First Gear has a good reputation, although I haven’t tried that brand.
I was also recently looking for a good jacket/pants combination for commuting that would keep me safe while also providing good ventilation. I settled on Motoport’s Air Mesh Kevlar jacket and pants and can’t speak highly enough of them. Ventilation/comfort in hot/humid weather is outstanding, and the protection is as good as, if not better than leather.
