    Default Stylish Warm Winter Jacket Brand

    Looking for a new winter jacket, has to be somewhat stylish and VERY warm. Budget is $1500 or under

    Looked at Canada Goose and MonCler so far. Alot of my friends tells me Canada Goose is not that warm, and they only have 2 styles of MonCler here. Any other suggestions?

    Like any other jacket, it is meant to wear in layers. 99% of Canada Goose people just wear a t-shirt underneath.

    There was a big thread about this a year ago.

    You want very warm? Layer it up.

    $1500 for a winter jacket?! I'm clearly not making enough money.

    Anyways regarding your friends, which CG jackets do you they? They are good albeit overpriced jackets. For someone to say they aren't that warm...just I don't know. The expedition jackets are very rugged. Maybe they need a onesie?

    Look at Rab, Patagonia, Western Mountaineering, Norrona, Marmot, MEC. They might not meet your 'style' quota but who knows, I like them. I'm still confused by the CG jackets not being warm.

    You and me both... Maybe the guy bought a counterfeit. I thought they used these jackets up north for military training.

    Holy man $1500? Lol

    Canada Goose worth it or you paying for the label? Haha

    Why do you need a jacket that warm? Not like you will be waiting for the bus or walking outside in minus 30.

    why not just go to a high end ski shop, get something that is at most $6-700, is very warm and technical, and looks 10 times as nice as the coats you mentioned earlier and save almost $1000?

    if your thinking abominable then i would reccomend against it, one of the worst/lower quality shops in town. Check out Fresh, Ski Cellar, Ski west or Source instead

    I wear a parka to work in the winter, looks good. ski coat with dress pants and shirt/tie clashes too much.

    Is so hard to tell unless if i am actually wearing the jacket during winter, but i will give CG a second thought. Thanks

    Nobis Cartel or other Nobis winter jackets. Super super super warm. Created by an ex-designer of CG. It's down filled, has magnetic flap closure, waterproof exterior, armpit vents for when it gets too warm (which I use all the time like on the ski hill and wearing it inside), machine washable, has the wrist waistband if you want to take it out on the ski hill, removable hood and removable fur on the hood, the fur also has a wire that runs through it making it moldable. And it's around $600 regular price, I got mine 25% off last year making it an amazing deal. Definitely the best bang for your buck for a stylish and super warm winter jacket. Plus not everybody and their aunt is rocking one of these like the CG jackets.

    Hot Gossip. They always have the 25% off sales, I got it last year at their friends and family sale. Paid around $500 incl tax.

    I can vouch for CG. It maybe a douchey or a fad or whatever, i could careless. Shit works, and keeps my ass warm whenever the bus doesn't feel like coming on time. Last year -50, during that cold snap. With just dress pants, snowboard socks and mid high boots, wife beater and dress shirt, i had on the CG chateu parka, i had no problem waiting 30 mins outside.
