Discovered this jacket for night time riding - I saw a guy riding with one last week, stopped and asked what it was. Bought one for myself! http://www.provizsports.com/en-us/proviz-reflect360-cycling-jacket-mens.html

they seem to have multiple colors, but if you get the grey on Amazon/ other online stores, they are a lot cheaper. They also make reflective backpacks/ helmet covers etc

I wouldn't use it to actively cycle, through - unless you want a sauna workout. There is not a lot of ventilation.

Nice jacket, hard to miss seeing that in headlights!
Bought something similar this winter, but in eye-popping green with reflective stripes.
Thumbs up, really happy with it.
Paid about $70 at local safety gear store.
Wear it cycling, in rain, and walking dog at night.
Kind of rain jacket worn by local power line and highway crews.
If anyone wants one of these, know they are cut huge... I got my normal size and can easily wear a heavy jacket underneath it for warmth.

They are available on eBay for about $60
