I want a new winter coat, but can't find anything I like. If anyone knows what the cool empyre black-and-grey kinda cyber-y hoodie I have that S4 gave me for Christmas a year or two ago is like, I really want that except in winter jacket form instead of fall-weather hoodie form. I'd also take a winter ladies motorcycle jacket - I like the lines of a lot of motorcycle jackets- but don't want another leather and wouldn't really want to deal with armor if I'm just using it for daily wear. (It might be handy if I went skiing or get r0ckc4ndy to teach me to snowboard, though!) Anyone have any ideas?

Moto jackets

Most non-leather motorcycle jackets (that are specifically designed for motorcycling) are going to be intended for warm weather, and often are designed for airflow. They'll likely have some armor, too.

There's some textile options in a nice retro-moto kind of cut from Triumph and there's always browsing around on NewEnough.com to get an idea of what's out there.

If you want a 'fashion' jacket that just looks vaguely moto, then standard retail outlets or even Burlington Coat Factory would be your best bet.

I see some reasonably cool looking ones on SierraTradingPost.com right now. Some of the Obermeyer ones, maybe?
