I use a velez paramo jacket in pumpkin when bikepacking as it’s a waterproof and softshell in one. You can vent well too. However, I would not use this for my commute as I ride quick over 8 miles and do some training at the same time. So I wear a more fitted castelli tops. Both are great for their particular uses. 👍🙂
Gore-tex shake dry. Can't beat them for bad weather commuting or longer, wet and cold road rides. Price tag isn't attractive, but functionality is as good as it gets.
