There are some great options for textile, and I think textile has a place, but I really want leather.

Do people mostly wear textile? Has textile jacket technology made advances that I'm not aware of? Can I/should I paint/dye a jacket yellow? Is my desire for bright yellow not as important as I thought?
There are so many local and other brands in the market that make good quality riding jackets. Not experienced them all but still, using two of the local brands and they are really good in their products especially in leather jackets (LeatherUp Viking Cycle).
For textile and mesh ones yeah both are good for in city riding style. You can also use them causally. For bright yellow don't have any idea about what exactly yellow tone you are talking about right now. Upload the shade example!
