I just started riding this year and needed a quality jacket for commuting. The Shift Trifecta is equipped for all season riding.
I have been able to make changes on the fly as the weather here in New Mexico can turn on a dime. I have had to get used to the change over in going from cold to wet to muggy and back but i should get better at it as time goes on.
I did have an issue with fitment but i don't blame the jacket for that. I am 5'6" with a 45 inch chest. An XL fits well but the sleeves are long by about an inch and a half. I would have this problem with any jacket i get though.
All in all, I think it was a very worthwhile purchase.
