While I have a couple of armored jackets my favorite by far to ride with when the weather is appropriate (cool to cold) is a heavy duty wax bomber I purchased in the UK in the early 90's.
I'll be in Scotland and Ireland in September and have three goals in mind. Buy a British riding jacket (wax...Belstaff etc.) in the traditional style. Visit Glenmorangie distillery (again). Lastly and probably most important, to have a pint in Cohan's Pub (featured in The Quiet Man).
If any of our UK regulars can point me to a good source for the jackets around Edinburgh or Dublin I would really appreciate the assist.
Frulk, welcome to Ireland!

The default bike shop here is bikeworld.ie. They have much more in stock than listed on their site.
LMK know if you need more info
