Cycling Jacket

[MaryPoppins]

Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone could recommend a quality hi-viz waterproof cycling jacket for commuting that has particularly long sleeves. I have long arms and can't seem to find a jacket that comes down to the hands when I am stretched out.
Thanks

I would this windproof (will provide some waterproofing) as well he ventilation is really good i.e. pit zips etc (though not Hi Viz):

I bought it from here.

A technical jacket from Paramo, made from a weather-resistant Nikwax® Windproof with a flexible design, reflective details and ventilation zippers.

If you combine it with Paramo enduro fleece you have a waterproof system (though not as good as their dedicated waterproof jacket)
I bought mine here.

Paramo Men's Enduro Fleece

The Enduro Fleece is for mountain activities across the seasons. On the mountains in summer, you want a warm, light layer designed specifically for

Hope this helps, I am unsure if the sleeve length would be long enough for you.

Paramo do a specific cycling jacket. It has armpit/torso ventilation zips, it's breathable and the hood fits well so that it turns with your head. It's also adjustable to fit over a helmet. I assume that, as it's a cycle jacket, the arms are thereby longer.
Thing is, they ain't cheap, but they do last.

I too am long in the arm. 6'4" so in proportion.

I use an Altura Nightvision jacket, which I've found really good for arm length. Outstanding for high vis and has a detachable hood for when the going gets wet.

I agree and use one, but last time I tried to find one online I could not. Maybe they have stopped making them. I would be pleased if you could post a link where they are still available.
