I bought for £40 as new Wolf 69 racing leather jacket - the best ever jacket, actually better then all of the new ones I have.
There is a company that makes made to measure wolf leathers:

The new Wolf textile range also looks very nice.
Wolf is quality gear IMO.
The only negative is for textiles they do not do laminated waterproof layer. Means if you plan to wear it during monsoon season the outer layer will get soaked with water. Still will be waterproof, but very heavy and will take ages to dry.
For cold and dry weather will be fine. Outlast has excellent insulation properties.
My favorite gloves are textile with Outlast and I wear them in the summer and now in the winter. Outlast keeps you cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather. ____________________ Adrian Monk: Unless I'm wrong, which, you know, I'm not...

Can't say too much about them beside during my last visit to J&S trying gloves on the "Wolf tech tour glove" is the only one that I made a note in my list and returned home thinking wasn't half bad and I haven't purchased anything but RST for a while.
edit: Jacket couldn't look more like the RST Pro Series Adventure 2 and or RST Paragon 5 textile jacket if it tried, hmm.  ____________________ The do it all, T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶k̶e̶n̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶,̶ ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶i̶g̶ ̶l̶u̶m̶p̶,̶ ̶C̶h̶o̶n̶g̶ ̶N̶o̶o̶d̶l̶e̶ |

Couldn't say, fooled me into thinking they where a stand alone brand as I assume: Alpinestar, Dainese etc are. Well, there pops my bubble.
If they really are the same then just go with the RST stuff as it's cheaper.
Pro series adventure 2 has better vents but Paragaon 5 is the new-er out of the two and cheaper. Vents on the pro series are good but the main two front pockets are fiddly beyond description, I'd say better suited to touring rather than commuting since they add about a year and a half trying to get them open, zipped up, closed, valcro'd etc etc and that's coming from a faffer. Try em on and compare see what you think.
All the cold weather thus far and I've no need for the thermal layer as would be overkill. Wind collar is a nice addition. ____________________ The do it all, T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶k̶e̶n̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶,̶ ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶i̶g̶ ̶l̶u̶m̶p̶,̶ ̶C̶h̶o̶n̶g̶ ̶N̶o̶o̶d̶l̶e̶ |
