We are polar vortex cold here, and it's not warm enough. Good for late fall maybe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2310240 Sun, 04 Oct 2015 15:22:14 +0000 yin 2310240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my Patagonia down sweater hooded jacket. I bought it on sale last winter for under $200. They often have sales for the regular down sweater jacket without hood for around $120. It's so warm, and I cannot wait to wear it again this winter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2310077 Sun, 04 Oct 2015 08:26:50 +0000 looch 2310077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my Lands End Commuter coats, I much prefer them to puffer style coats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2310049 Sun, 04 Oct 2015 07:51:01 +0000 KissKissBangBang 2310049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently loving an Eddie Bauer parka, but they don't carry them in-store in Canada and ordering online causes the price to jump 2x - $200 --&gt; $400. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2307680 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 13:12:29 +0000 lamariniere 2307680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a Peak Performance (Swedish brand) coat half off at the end of last winter. I haven't been able to test it in really cold temps yet as I got it at the tail end of winter, but the construction and details are really nice and it's supposed to be one of their warmer styles. . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2307510 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 11:19:07 +0000 CakeLady 2307510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@EBSC: Eddie Bauer has some cute options, I wouldn't have thought of it. Thanks!</p> <p>@catlady: I really like the look of the Arctic parka. Good to know it is super warm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2307492 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 11:06:11 +0000 catlady 2307492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My warmest coat is my North Face arctic parka. I can actually only wear it in the coldest temperatures (like 20 or below) otherwise I get too hot. For "normal" winter temps around here (20-40), I wear a North Face metropolis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2307484 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 10:57:33 +0000 EBSC 2307484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've really liked my Eddie Bauer down coat. It's mid-thigh, has a hood, and relatively cute (zips up, trimmed hood, white). I actually got it at the outlet near us for ~$120, so not too crazy expensive, but really warm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-winter-coat#post-2307480 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 10:52:46 +0000 CakeLady 2307480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As the weather gets colder I am starting to think about a new winter coat for me. It gets polar vortex cold where I live, so I am looking for something really warm. I like longer (mid-thigh or more) coats and prefer down. I'd like it to be at least a little stylish. I am willing to invest but don't have Canada Goose money.</p> <p>What winter coats do you love? </p>
