Olympic Switchback 2 or Klim Induction?

[wjduke]

Please help me decide. Looking for a jacket with as much protection as possible but great airflow with hi viz features.

If I ride in the rain, it is by accident.

I have narrowed it down to two. Here are my thoughts:

Olympic seems like the better value:
-more hi viz material
-Cordura 500 mesh material
-CE approved elbow, shoulder and back (though I cannot find what level of CE approval it offers)
-Has a rain liner option
$199 on RevZilla with RevZilla cash I have; can get another $10 RevZilla cash with purchase

However, the Klim:
-has D3O protection at elbows and shoulders - I really like this feature
-Not Cordura, but high strength mesh
-no rain liner
-Klim has great reputation for durability, but also their name recognition is built into the price below
-very popular mid-priced jacket
$349 on RevZilla and everywhere else with no discounts

You sure Klim doesn't have the rain liner? I bought one from a member here and got a liner with it. One other thing...I'm not convinced hi-viz is all that. I'm still not seen. My horn got a workout this week on my PA ride. Good thing I pay attention, because cagers don't. I had two close calls....within feet of me.
