If it works for you then great. But how is two jackets less to carry around than one set of well performing top layers that you don't need to take off / put back on?
@youramericanlover It wasn't a hardman statement. Just seems uncomfortable and bulky.

Because the top jacket (flyweight wind jacket) is amazingly small, and the insulated jacket I'm wearing anyway. Flyweight jacket + insulated jacket is the set of well performing top layers. For a day with variable weather, or at least where you're cycling day time and into cold evening, is there an 'outfit' you just wear and don't have to take off/ put back on?

Hey this is #jackettalk which is a wonderful place where all are welcome! Personally the Pro Team Jacket 2015(ish) is what I ride in everything below like 7 degrees long and it's perfect, nearly undefeated. All I meant was for example I've had to add an extra layer underneath it now. But there are other interesting layering options out there. One jacket to rule them all doesnt have it be it?

What an odd thing to say
2 jackets is more flexible, cheaper, and less to carry around. On a long ride in british or irish weather, esp in winter, that's valuable.
