The Alter Ego's are VERY handy. Although, I'm a little pissed about the normal Joe Rocket zipper issues. One on my pants just f'd up the other day. Zero problems on my jacket (older generation alter ego), new pants are the suck.
I wore them on the trip to new york last summer and they did great. Even when it was 118 out.
I never used the inner pants liner for the rain storms, because it was so hot out. But back here on the central coast, I use the pant liner a lot for cold morning commutes.
The jacket, not used so much anymore. I have a warmer tourmaster since my commute time it's normally in the 50's-60's out.
And yah, I'm the red ranger.
