    North Face softshell jacket Men's Cut as it's longer and covers more, in my opinion. Chrome Stock Cobra underneath. Balaclava. Good gloves. I have a pair of thick Craft brand gloves that are amazing. Adidas Samba soccer shoes (stiff indoor soccer insole makes them nice for short bike rides). Then whatever else you're wearing.

    Just a regular softshell style jacket (many generic brands are available. Or, I used to ride in my old M65 Army surplus Field Jacket before I got all snooty. LOL!) Those work well because they are like wind-repellant and water repellant with an insulating layer inside.

    I have a different problem. Where I live its chilly on the ride in, 40s, but warm on the ride home (60s-70s). So I started using the cannondale morpheus jacket. What I like about it is that the sleeves come off with magnets for the commute home, and it is screaming yellow which is good for visibility and its waterproof too. But its just a shell, although you could layer it over an ibex sweater in a colder climate.
