As a year round commuter myself, yes, Weaponzero hit the nail on the head.
I can only comfortably wear my leather jacket on certain days. Not too hot and not too cold and not in the rain (even one with vents and a removable quilted liner). They’re also not very forgiving for those of us who are at an age where we are fighting a constant battle with our waist measurement.
Textile is what I wear most of the time although I do have a lined textile touring jacket for the Winter and a 3 season mesh with wind/waterproof liner jacket for the Spring, Summer and Autumn.
