Looking at a couple of Hein Gericke textile jackets...i like the first one more;

https://www.hein-gericke.co.uk/shop/product_info.php/cPath/1_15_7/products_id/3144

but it says 'Get in a mesh this summer'. Excusing the poor wordplay for a moment, does it mean that this is just a summer jacket, or would it be suitable for winter use too...?

And the second is this one;

https://www.hein-gericke.co.uk/shop/product_info.php/cPath/1_15_7/products_id/3163

which i don't like as much as the first, but it seems to be a proper winter one...?

Other than these, is there any other textile jackets for around £60 that are as good or better?

Cheers!

Those two you linked are both 100% summer jackets and wouldn't be pleasant in the cold Smile

Would be a better starting point

Yep, Louise will come along and tell you they're both summer ones, which is why they're on sale. The HG winter jackets with CE start from £70..
HG Boost
HG PS
HG PS-HP

I can't decide between which three to get for me

Very Happy

Seems like more and more things are getting added to the sale... Dunno whether I should wait it out or not.

How can i tell which ones are winter and which are summer? I can't see any indication of what's what, other than price.

That one's not bad, and might well be the one i'll go for, but i'd like to see what the blue version is like first, not keen on the silver.

As far as I know whats on sale is all we have lol
Air 2 is way to summery for now.
Boost I think is fine - its longer down the back where as the others are too short for my liking unles you want cold Kidneys Wink
There is soon a sheltex Jacket comming out with Day glow (Like the Cruise 2) But half the price - looks pretty decent and warm - unsure of dates ATM.
