BG Jacket Cotton/Nylon Front Zipper

This is one of the better cotton jackets, especially for the money. The nylon panel in the back adds much-needed ventilation. Overall it is fairly heavy - this is both a plus (protection against bruises) and a minus (hot). The zipper closure is much better than the velcro on other lower-priced jackets, and is quite durable. For the price it is an excellent value.
