folks who know me have my #.
leather over wool or leather over down..

a hooded leather greatcoat is $, though, scarf it used, if you can find it..

lots of weight, but super durable.. wax it or spray it, then go through the trenches..

Yep they are popular right now - Old navy is pushing thing for the holidays. Although these coats don't look quite warm at all, colorful, but not really warm. Meh - I don't shop there anyway. :)

I just noticed them for $130 new in US Cavalry military surplus catalogue, what a rip off. They also sell new ecws sleep systems for $444.68 Most local army/ navy stores will sell pea coats for $20 used. I personally have sold used goretex bivy sacks for $20. I like to see how insane the prices are in online retail mega surplus stores. Fuck that.
