I've had a the Cayenne Pro Jacket for about two years now and it is just not as durable as I had hoped.
My first jacket had the superfabric peel off and had a few seams unravel after 9 months of ownership, commuting 3-5 days a week. The velcro on the cuffs and along the main zipper tended to catch the sleeves and cause a fuzzy mess. It was replaced under warranty and I got another 3 months of coverage for the new jacket.
The new jacket had a few improvements, but the once "waterproof" pockets were no longer marked as such. The superfabric didn't peel, but the velcro still causes a mess and one of the front lower pockets is unraveling at the seam because some seams just aren't overlocked. The hydratex liner for the first jacket was waterproof, but the liner for the second jacket leaked from the start.
So I owned the first jacket for 9 months and the second for 13, and they always required periodic maintenance to deal with these issues. For the retail price they are asking for, I would really hope it shows less wear after a year of use.
(On the positive side, it looks pretty good, is incredibly comfortable, and very warm)

Really amazing what this thin piece of rubber does. If you dig through the Hein Gericke literature, you'll find that a residual force of 24.5kN is transmitted when the pad is subject to the CE test. While by no means the best pads out there, they do a very good job at absorbing energy with very little bulk.
These are great for putting in a tight jacket to get a little more arm room, or behind the stock pads of a loose jacket to give a tighter fit.
