    Getting a jacket

    Hello all,
    I am currently in the looking to buy a new jacket because the one I use now is pretty cheap and not good quality. I don't really want to spend $250+ on an FIE jacket, rather something slightly less. I found the Leon Paul full-stretch competition jacket, which they say is the best non-FIE jacket.

    I was wondering what your thoughts on this is. I was thinking this jacket gets hot, but there is a wicking layer though. What other jackets would you reccomend around this price and quality range?

    Thanks

    I like my Leon Paul Competition jacket, and do not get too hot in it.

    I recently bought a Leon Paul USFA series jacket for $79. It is really nice quality and very comfortable and cool. My only complaint was that I ordered a 42 and the jacket fits like a 44 -a bit too loose. Otherwise, its was a very good deal.
