A Winter jacket is probably the most important thing you can have in your life. Even more important than water (kidding!!! haha kidding!!). However it is really important (to me). So today in this incredibly convoluted video I will tell you what winter jacket I will be getting:

The Iron Snail is a men’s fashion vlog starring a young man named Michael and featuring a snail no bigger than a quarter. The two are set on taking over the world of fashion by creating a clothing line to end all clothing lines. Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jacket to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered. (written by Taylor, though Michael is sometimes known to talk about himself in the third person… xoxo)

Come over and explain insulation properties to me while I eat oatmeal.
deal
He'll be explaining it while he eats a banana with a fork and knife.
Dude this is so sick. That windshield scene is very beautiful. I love how personal and genuine this video is. Full of emotion. All the best to the both of ya.
thank you!
Best line so far this season on the iron snail, "If you know someone who has selvedge jeans and leather boots that can be re-soled, but will never be re-soled, then chances are, they will have a deck jacket."
The denim-head stereotype cookie cutter sheep induced following trend of being different and individualistic as possible…like the comment about the boots. Traditionalistic conformity of the stereotype that seeks the selvage addiction is, to myself, a bit like getting on the sheep train…i love the style, but i also love the scene in i-robot with the army if identical droids all lined-up for the next order. Btw i enjoy the episodes, a smile always feels good🐌
Bahaha!
Literally, I'm invested in this season of the Mike and Taylor show, I just wish it was on demand.
It is for me!
You are the Wes Anderson of mens fashion. Love it.
I'm almost certain that is where he draws a lot of his inspiration from... however I would need him to confirm.
Got the same vibe haha, love the channel Michael 💛
It's the symmetry in that first shot, it's so VERY Wes Anderson...
THANK YOU!
Never heard of the guy! (Jk, of course!)
Leather boots that can be resoled but never will be resoled is such a call out and you got me so directly
Every Thursday boot owner ever
hahahaha ZING
@@plusgood15 Thursdays are too cheap to get resoled. By if you got some high end boots its definetly worth it.
@@TheFrontyer I agree
This is me boring my wife to tears over jackets. So, so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
hahahaha and of course!
fun fact, Manifattura used to be Filson's manufacturer for the European and Japanese market. So whenever you come across a Filson that is "made in Italy", it's made by them
this actually answers so much!
Wait so does that mean that it's made by Filson or Manifttur Iam comfused
I'm not sure who said it but in the 1970s and with regards to Lester Bangs, they posed the question: what if the best writer in America is writing music journalism? So basically what I'm trying to say is and with a sense of self aware hyperbole: what if one of the best independent film-makers in the US is currently making jacket reviews on RUclips?
I'm pretty sure he is.
this is perhaps the nicest comment ive ever received in any facet of my life
Thank you!
He is.
I said it for a year or two ago, this young gem of a man will for sure become successful within his passions.
Its not the topics who is most entertaining, its the rest of it.
He could present paint drying and make it interesting.
I miss taylor being in the vlogs!!! glad you two got to see each other and get some more time before she went back. Have really been enjoying the videos lately and can’t wait for more to come!
thanks so much!
Love your content Michael. Silly, personable, informative and expertly edited.
thank you!!!
Stressful all over the place and emotional yet somehow still informative. I loved it
A B-3 is my perfect winter jacket. They’re so expensive, but damn they look cool as shit. Been eyeing the all black version on Overland for a minute now. The only decently priced one I’ve seen so far.
SHEESH i fully endorse that!
Safe travels, Taylor! And best wishes to you Michael, may all the coat nerds be warm today.
TY!
This is a very nice genuine vlog-clothing video. I'll always be a fan of filson cruisers for casual and outdoor pursuits-- but I think I want a peacoat now. GAH! choices, choices.
Ugh the constant choice is horrible
The scene at the table is me speaking to my wife about watches.
Also, you should do a “how to” video on how you come up / script your videos. I don’t even make videos but am so impressed at the mindset. I have said it once and will say it again - Wes Anderson.
Blundstones look great. I’ll have to do the same soon so thanks for letting me know what they hopefully will look like afterwards 👍🏻
Of course!
Looking forward to the video when you travel to Demark to visit Taylor and make videos about the clothing scene in Denmark at the same time! Right?
(YES)
Fun video, as always! I found a funky raw denim jacket that I thought you might like! It's the Levi's Upside-Downable Trucker Jacket (I tried to link to it in a previous comment, but I think I got automatically spam filtered, and now the jacket is sold out), and its like two jackets in one. It was created by Gary Graham, an American fashion designer and a Vogue Fashion Fund Finalist who now focuses on small batch collections that give vintage textiles new life. Keep up the awesome videos! : )
Well done 👍 I’ve seen this Italian brand carried by Standard and Strange btw.
I like to wear Woolpower mid layer jackets and sometimes an Arpenteur rain jacket over that.
I just saw that they carry them and im amped!
That Manifattura Ceccarelli jacket is so choice. Was not familiar with this brand until this video. Pumped.
SAME!
Awesome video, man. The unstructured peek into your day & life is what draws the viewer in.
Had to comment again, how is it that a review/clothing video can feel like a movie, very good work bro, thanks for these videos.
Thank you!!
Great video. My winter rotation is peacoat, dufflecoat, B3 Bomber and praying it’s not raining.
Hahahaha a good prayer!
Very enjoyable video thank you for the smiles and for distracting me to look at your jacket pictures as I was driving down the freeway.
oh dear god
Thanks for the video :) Have you researched ventile cotton and down combos for jackets? They work similar to the waxed variety but ventile usually has a DWR instead and has the additional quality of the fibres swelling.
i don't think you'll regret the filson pick. love my double mack for the versatility and the roomy cut.
im super excited to snag one!
God are your videos really confy, fun and cute. The whole oatmeal explination scene is awesome. Hope she has a good trip. Thx for the videos
thank you x2!
I have the Manifattura Ceccarelli Mountain jacket and I love it, great choice! It ages like a dream
Can’t wait!
I have the fisherman down parka since last year. It's exactly what I'm looking for. It has a bit of polyester trimming but otherwise it's all natural fabric and I love it. Also bought it on sale but it is still pricey. But compared to the popular Canada Goose polyester coat, it's way way better and more breathable. I'm simply a fan of natural clothing.
@@dwargonedragon794 I am about to buy this one since it has almost no plastics. How does it fair below freezing?
@@sorenjunkers3834 For the down filled version, it can handle -30C with just a T underneath, as long as you don't do heavy physical activity and sweat bec the cotton liner simply soaks sweat and weaken the insulation.
I don't have the wool padded version but I'm guessing it is less warm but can handle a bit of moisture.
@@dwargonedragon794 aight thinking of going for the wool version. is it long enough to keep your ass warm?=
Got a one of those jackets, the short version in black but no down. Super good, would recommend
Sold!
Another great video Michael!
Ty my friends!!!
I know your channel is doing pretty well. However, I’m shocked you don’t have 5-10x the views. Your tempo and storytelling is absolutely brilliant.
Imagine camping in front of the woods waiting for it to be opened. Sounds like something I'd do with the boys when we're hammered 😅 congrats for 14k btw!!
hahahaha and ty!
Dude seriously love you’re channel! Don’t do a straight vid ever ! There is enough of those on here and my opinion are stale these are fresh .I think you and Taylor are Ace !.
I found you yesterday googling denim fades ….today binging all the others in between shoots.
I have been in the TV game for 20 years as a camera operator have seen a lot of on air personalities…. You are awesome man you’re story telling is sick the humour is a crack up 😂 I literally LOL ed in a lobby watching this vid and may have scared an old lady walking past as I had my headphones on .
The info in you’re vids is great
Clearly a heap of work goes in to these . Just wanted to give to props bro the music the editing the research the script writing the locations
Well done !!
Can’t wait to see this channel subs rocket 🚀
Mark my words by the end of the year I’m guessing you will have over 50K probs closer to 100 k
Not blowing smoke up ya just want to give cred when cred is due RESPECT
You need the filson cruiser and then layer a duffle coat over, followed by your wind/ water resistant down layer over the top of both of them lol. The you can comfortably sleep in central park if necessary at -20c.
Michael, I wonder if you’ve explored the topic of Cashball? It’s basically cashmere scraps that are shredded up and used as a down alternative, and is apparently better at insulating than down especially in wet conditions. I’ve only really seen Noah NYC utilizing cashball but I thought it might interest you/your viewers
I know Aime Leon Dore also uses cashball on some puffers too!
OH THIS IS FASCINATING
I’m glad this video wasn’t direct or too centered around the jackets. Loved it.
Thank you!
So which Manifattura Ceccarelli jacket did you settle on? I'm keen on one of them as well but hard to translate the page. Great vid!
I bought the uniqlo x White mountaineering parka in olive as my Winter jacket :) its a Great jacket in my Opinion 👍🏻
I hear great things about it!
In Germany and Austria they make coats out of a wool mix called Loden. Basically all old school hunting garments were made out of it. Nowadays it is less prominent and went a bit out of style. The LL Bean founder on the picture you showed was basically wearing one.
Personally I like the Wolverine Jacket from Icefox.
yeah but if the weather gets really shitty and you move around a lot it is always too heavy and thats why nowadays only hunters really use Loden jackets. I still have a lighter one because I love wool but the real weather resistant stuff is way too heavy for me and id rather wear a down parka
@@sorenjunkers3834 true but even when wet it keeps you warm. I think it’s actually an underrated material.
@@TomKraus Most people prefer not to get wet. Have you ever been soaking wet in lode? It is not nice. A fisherman would never wear Loden. If you want to protect yourself from the water it really is not a good material.
@@sorenjunkers3834 different use case. 80% of the time in the winter you don’t need waterproof clothing. Not even in winter. Even in skiing some start rethinking using full weather proof clothing. Especially in backcountry skiing breathability and keeping warm is more favourable. See Morino Wool base layers or pants and jackets with limited water repellent properties for the majority of days.
Nobody in the outdoor sports would wear rubber boots and fishermen bibs for their activity.
Loden will not become the materiel for these neither but I think the full waterproof craze will mellow down.
@@TomKraus Yeah but Loden also is not good for wind proofing because again it will result in quiet a bit of weight to be effectiv
This is art. Titles the video about an Italian made Best Winter Jacket. Mentions the manufacturer in the last minute and never shows the jacket in question, instead talks about EVERY other type of winter jacket. Finally mentions the one Italian jacket that meets all your criteria, and show us pictures of THREE different jackets. No names. No help. WOT? Still a great review of different jacket types. Highly entertaining. Two thumbs up!
so he basically wasted everyones time
For some reason this reminded me of the video for Death Cab's 'A Movie Script Ending'.
You just made me go down a rabbit hole of DCFC songs. I just got back... I don't regret it 😭
going to watch that rn!
Did you ever get that Manifattura Ceccarelli jacket? Very interested in a review.
Another great video! Actually got the Best Made full zip down jacket after watching one of your previous videos (and on sale) and it is unbelievably warm and decently well made, only hang up is the proportions of the jacket are on the longer side. Also what’s the sizing like on that 3SxSchott coat ?
Also forgot to mention, I have the Universal Works deck jacket. Really cool details (herringbone pattern through out) and warm but big downside is no hand warmer pockets AND most importantly no throat latch.
no handwarmer pockets?! That’s so weird on a winter jacket
Also the sizing on the 3Sixteen x Schott coat is TTS!
Great video! Fun and educational. Can't get over the fact that you are not wearing gloves, a scarf or a hat in winter
I have selvedge jeans and boots that can be resoled but probably won't be. Can confirm I do own a dehen n1.
BOOM!
Weather varies too much in new england to have an "ultimate" winter jacket. So instead I have like 15, most of which you mentioned in this video lol.
Bahahaha
Found your channel by luck and have watched tons of your previous videos. If Maxx Chewning had a younger brother, you'd be him - literally the same sense of humor etc. keep up the great work :)
I got a lil emotional. Great jackets and ideas!
ty!
i hope u do the winter essentials accessories video (leather gloves, scarf etc)
GREAT IDEA!
That's the most romantic going away breakfast ever. I cried
Your channel is full of little works of art
I loved the idea of peacoats and owned a few but... the classic 4x2 with only two handwarmer pockets are just not enough pockets for a phone a wallet and two hands
Ugh this is so sadly true
At 11:37 after the rant (which I do) about jackets. You want a down jacket that looks cool, is not a one off purchase and can shed water. Substance and style. I am now going to visit the website. OMG I love tiefr logo!
Sorry if I missed it. Who makes that sweater/hoodie you're wearing under the vest in the SP?
What jeans are you wearing in the woods? At approx minute 3:16 in the vid? They look comfy
Manifattura Ceccarelli used to make jackets for Filson actually! Amazing choice
I LOVE this fact
The guy co-hosts a watch channel and he asks siri the time. Priceless
LOL
I actually wanted to buy a Ceccarelli winter jacket last year but the sleeves were sadly too short for me. Otherwise the materials and construction is really nice
Thankfully for me i have tiny arms!
if you're into Italian jackets, check out Putin's favourite Loro Piana jacket. It's $14k , but dressing up like a murderous dictator is priceless and fashionable.
4 min in and I can't stop laughing. The way u explained insulation is so relateble to my girlfriend Only then about fabrics have a nice day :)
bahaha thanks! You too!
Taylor: “For the love of God can we stop talking about wool…I’m leaving for Denmark soon!!!”
This could easily have been the most boring video ever, yet I was oddly riveted and have now subscribed.
This video is just great!. That is all. 👍🏻
THANKS!
Idk what it is about Michael, but these videos are wildly entertaining.
Thank you so much!!
How do these compare to the fjallraven no 1 jacket (waxed canvas + down filling) or fjallraven greenland winter jacket (waxed canvas + sherpa lining)?
Cool video mate
thanks my friend!
Real McCoys makes some high quality repro N1 Deck Jackets like what Lee Marvin wears in a flashback scene in Point Blank - I’ve got one that’s jungle cloth and the color is so gold its almost green. Then there’s a Canada Goose Maitland, a model CG doesn’t make. For daily wear, though a Patagonia Drift Down jacket with an Gen I ECWS Shell with a woodland camo. The shell is loose enough to accommodate the down coat. I have an even roomier Wintergreen Anorak designed for layering. Duffle coats look great but they are really heavy - the reason why I sold mine was only because of the weight.
Hey Michael, RUclips here.
Just wanted to say that you are amazing at producing these videos.
Love you.
-RUclips
It’s like I’m watching a romance play out in clothing reviews. Bellissimo
Haha thank you!
But, do you really need a down coat in your climate? I live in Alaska and a deck jacket got me through this winter just fine. I have a synthetic coat that i wear when it's really cold, layer it with a wool sweater and it's super toasty. But, I'd say a deck jacket or something similar (thick wool sweater with a rain shell, B3, etc) is good down to like 15 degrees.
What is the make of the dark grey zip hoodie you’re wearing? (7m 25s)
Where do you buy manifattura jackets from? They aren't in many stores.
Great video. Your friend seems really cool.
Jeez Louize I love taylors hair and outfits in this
Taylor with the drip check 🔥🔥🔥🔥
this is great.
Thanks!
8:40 The dust on the camera made me blow my screen 🫠
The jackets that Taylor wore, were the best.😎
Good fucking God you're a good visual storyteller. Plus I love the jackets
Thank you so much!
YOU. ARE. NEVER. GETTING. LAID!
theres no way this channel wont explode.
well ty!
You’re my favorite…and this video was also my favorite
Please never stop Michael
okay DEAL!
“Okay so Taylor is finally gone😂😭
Best RUclipsr, dude it’s crazy
well ty!
@theironsnail what model jacket is the Manifattura Ceccarelli
Dude.. loved the intro
ty!
What is the specific manifattura ceccareli jackets he recommends?
Seriously heading down a rabbit's hole here. Why is Taylor going to Denmark? How many videos back do I need to search?
Hahaha! Look at "The Difficulties of Making a Denim Jacket"
Wait, was this a video about insulation and how, with repeated use the insulation efficiency reduces inasmuch as the emotion of saying goodbye repeatedly?
…….you’re a genius
I suggest the artic parka by woolrich, or the one by napapijiri
How long is she staying here In Denmark? Covid restrictions are being lifted on the 31st.
Would be a shame if she left before truly seeing the country come alive.
Either way. New subscriber from Copenhagen. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! And she’ll be there for almost 2 years!
@@TheIronSnail Holy crap. We’ll make sure to return her to ya in one piece. Maybe teach her a few funny words along the way.
Speaking of grizzly jackets, I just became aware of the wolverine by Himel Bros and it might be worth going into debt.
Oh i say totally worth it
"...that old familiar feeling you get every now and again that tells you turn back round and what is happening can easily be fixed if you just turn back around." I hope you don't have to live through or relive too many of those moments in your life.
thank you my friend
I couldn't hear you mention that wool is a self cleaning material..
When hiking in mountains, we hang up our wool underwear in the wind and the smell despair...
What hoodie are you wearing at 6:20?
Nigel Carbourn Everest is a grail piece for me but I live in California so I’ll never use it 😭
Cool video, title doesn't do it justice
well thank you!
6:31 Czech beer everywhere you go
Hahaha
If you live in Canada like me you need something way warmer for the winter months lol
TRUE!
