      Mftr's have been making good/better/best many yrs. You drive your Suburban and I will drive my VW. We both arrive to slopes same time. Both are usually equally happy. History proves there are sufficient amount of jacket buyers to maintain production. Some w choose to spend $1,000 while many of us wont (while we secretly roll our eyes). But....I love me some pretty women. If I can struggle to pay for this jacket, an expensive car, I can lead the pretty woman to my short term trap. Once she learns I spent a lot for these two items but don't have the money to wine and dine like she expected, she will be gone fairly quick. Next.....

      Nonsense. It's not worth the money at all. These coats now cost over one thousand five hundred pounds. If you don't really appreciate the value of money, and you can splash out on expensive clothes willy nilly, then it's up to you. They are worth a quarter of that- four hundred pounds at the most. I talk from my experience. My Langford Parker started fraying and discolouring after only a few months of urban use in Moscow. I never used it for more than commuting and walking on those rough roads and paths. They are not guaranteed for material defects or wear and tear. That's not a proper guarantee! The coat was warm, but I needed a jumper underneath to keep me warm when it was below minus ten degrees and below. Unfortunately, there is no alternative to this coat.

      Because those ratings are not independently veryfied they don't mean anything. What actually matters in terms of insulation is the total down volume which is calculated by mutiplying the fillpower of the down contained with the total amount of down contained (total down weight). And if you look at the price of down, the down in a Moncler jacket alone is worth more than 3 times as much as the total cost of your jacket. Therefore it is mathematically impossible that your jacket is even remotely close to the insulation power of a Moncler or Canada Goose jacket.

    I own 2, one Expedition, and one Snow Mantra. I live in Minnesota, and there is no other coat I would wear if the temperature is going to go below -20 F or more. The Snow Mantra is bulky but if you have to plow snow you are not worrying too much about your image. People worried about their good looks are not going to venture out much when the temperature will freeze your skin in mere minutes.
    All of that said, I never experienced a problem with my zipper on either coat. In fact the only problem I had with either, was the placement of a velcro tab on the storm flap on the Snow Mantra. It rubs the nylon cuff while fastening the zipper, and eventually it pulls loops off thread out of the cuff. Canada Goose did replace the cuffs free of charge, but the same is starting to happen again. If I again return the coat I will recommend moving the velcro tabs where this is not an issue.

      That's four thousand pounds spent on two coats that wear out after a few years of use out in the freezing cold. What are you going to do when you need another warm coat, and there are no better alternatives? You can buy an old goose down coat for sixty-five pounds which will last longer and will stand up to rough use. When I say old, I mean very old. Old and hardly used. New stuff just doesn't cut the mustard.

I bought another one since then, another Snow Manta, vintage Snow Goose for about $800 usd. The Expedition was $950, and the other snow Mantra was about $600. I'll let you do the math on what that converts to pounds. I have bought a couple of jackets from Noize at about $90 each and have worn one of them. It will keep your coffee core warm below 0F but your face will freeze unless you wear a mask. It wasn't long after I wrote this originally that I got a new personal record, -37F. I plowed snow.

It's definitely warm when it's -30 °C outside, but there are cheaper jackets that are just as warm for sure. I find that my $150 boxing day special Tommy Hilfiger down jacket is pretty well just as warm, and for a fraction of the cost. And the zipper does such for sure!!!!!

    Greetings from Finland; great video as always, thanks! I recently bought a black TEI4 rated Canada Goose jacket and have been loving it. I wear it over my suit and it looks good, unlike a Moncler which is way more casual. Today it was -20c during the day and it kept me warm; way better than my old North Face Summit series jacket.

    Just two weeks ago I bought Canada Goose Jacket. I am not rich person by any means I am student at the moment, but for years I’ve been wanted good quality winter jacket. I looked around to spent up to 300 or 400£ for good jacket I still couldn’t find anything that would keep me warm and look stylish at the same time. I bought cheap one three years ago just to wear it in cold days so I don’t freeze but never really got the job done. When I bought the Canada Goose I thought I’m gonna regret spending 895£ for a bloody jacket is way to expansive, (we spent over 1000£ for iPhones every 2 years), but let me tell you after wearing those days which has been cold here in London I absolutely did not regret it one bit. I had to work some extra hours to pay for it but is worth it, is not something that you buy every year or even every two years. I have lifetime warranty for it if any manufacturing defect come up and they will fix it for free, it keep you so warm but it doesn’t make you sweat, it’s water proof and I will keep it for good few years. If you have the money buy it you not gonna regret it. So looking forward to the winter this year and staying warm. Each one for themselves, in the end of the day we spending our own money, I like products that is worth paying for, even if you pay 2-3 or 4 times more than you expected sometimes.

    I live in an amazingly cold Canadian province, and I bought my Canada Goose jacket back in the mid-2000s, when it was a little less expensive. My jacket is far more simple, sleek, and stylish than the style in this video. As others have mentioned in the comments, the zipper also functions really well as long as you keep the line relatively straight. I bought CG jackets for my parents a few years ago. My mother never struggles with the zipper. My dad struggles immensely, but he also makes the same mistake as done in this video, where he tries to curl the bottom end up, towards him. Personally, I still consider this to be one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. The only other items that even come close are my Canada Goose gloves and my navy Thom Browne seafarer jacket.

    It seems far too expensive to me. There is a UK based company near me (Tog24) that sells a 600 fill power parka that I could currently get for under $200

      The down alone contained in a Moncler jacket is almost worth as much as your 200$ jacket. So it is a mathematical impossibility that that jacket can even come close to the insulation of a Moncler or Canada Goose.

      I got a SCHOTT N3-B Extreme Cold Weather Parka back in about 2002 for £120 - passed it onto my Dad, who lives out in the countryside, a few years ago and he only uses it when it's really really cold. Still going strong to this day.

      @@sergenubret8341 nope 700 full power down is €25 per 100gms a monclair jacket would have less than €100 retail worth of down so around €50 tops wholesale monclair is way overpriced just like a canada goose jacket many better truly top performance gear out there

  • @RevJamesCostello
    @RevJamesCostello 5 лет назад +9

    That’s actually a nice looking coat. Many times better looking than the Monclair. I have a navy parka made my Canali that is more elegant and better quality. I have no regrets about that purchase. Though I had to get rid of the fur. I don’t like that at all. I’ll consider reattaching if I ever make a trip to the north pole or Antarctica. I would say it’s a fairly stylish coat for the colder days. There’s a time and a place for an overcoat. It’s more suited to smart dress. Most style conscious people, most of the time, are going to be dressed more casually. A coat of this style, especially in winter, is perfectly appropriate.

    Even my Karrimor Sub Zero down jacket has 90/10 Goose down 800 fill power, which was £50 in a sale a couple of years ago.

    You can’t critique the jackets for having plastic zippers because they are made for cold weather. Metal zippers freeze up really easily and are harder to use when cold in general

    I am based in England and also have a disability of the spine which means I feel the cold really badly. A friend recommended this brand to me and sent me a discount site link so I paid much less for mine than retail (yes it’s legit I bought out of season). Mine has literally kept me comfortable in some very cold days and harsh frosts. I have the longer parka and I wouldn’t have paid full price for it simply because I can’t justify spending the regular $900 price tag. Although I am so happy I got it because it is so warm and comfortable.
