O/T Who makes a toasty warm parka?

[Sopchoppy]

Check out Raven Wear; made in Canada. My hunting friend has one of the parka length coats and I've tried it on. Unbelievably warm!! It is not made for anything less than COLD!!

I have one almost identical except for the fur trim. Its called golden goose made by coleman in Canada. But 215.00 for a down filled parka sounds like a good deal to me.

I have a layering system made by Swanni Dri in New Zealand. Coat, vest and jackshirt. Made of a very tight weave wool. Have hunted right through Jan 1st for years with it....no complaints.
I am guessing I have about 380.00 into it.

Bob food for thought...Down filled parkas loose there ability to keep you warm if wet and they pile over time..Poly filled jackets can still keep you warm if wet and they last longer,,

This is what you need to wear if you are going to be out in cold conditions.

Great for still hunting, I wear one of these parka's under a very large white terry cloth bath robe and disappear into a snow bank.
Have used mine down as low as -48 on snowmobiling on James Bay 18 or so years ago.

the $610.00 price tag is a hair on the steep side. I'd have to take up being a clergyman in North Carolina in order to afford that.

Awww ... should we take up an offering, Bob?

Will you stop!!!!!!

I still think you should get on ebay.com and do a search on "extreme cold weather". They are US Government army issue for below -zero temps. They may not be camo but you can get a parka, pants, and hood for about $100 bucks. Most are brand new and I have never got cold when I hunted up north regardless of how cold it was. I took some camo spray paint and lightly camoflagued it up a little. These are the best kept secret for cold weather gear.
