down recs
Where would you look for a down jacket? Thinking vintage is the way to not invest too much money. on my list so far is vintage Eddie Bauer and Woolrich but Eddie Bauer seems to have better designs for down. Also would you prefer a shorter or longer jacket? Thank you!

Liking this vintage Eddie Bauer down jacket. what pants would you wear with it?
Also how would you treat sizing vs a non down coat?
With this blue - Black Denim should work well. On jacket length - depends on how cold it is - prefer longer if its sub zero.
Thank you, I was thinking indigo and mid blue denim could work well too
Yes - indigo as well. I myself won't be confident enough to pull off mid blue, but don't see it not working.
Tan/ Khaki as well - depending on the shade.
This is nice
I want my winter jackets to cover my butt when it comes to length
Keep ya organs toasty
Yeah that was my concern with this one though I do think it looks nice
Could do both if they're cheap enough
How many inches pit to pit allowance would you give for a down coat vs typical?
Depending on how cold you're looking to be in check out EB's old karakoram jackets. They're pretty sweet
Fishtail down parka, so good
Looks great thank you
It gets consistenly below freezing upstate
NYC is warmer but still gets p cold
Just got this All Blues Co one ready for winter, so not had chance to put it to the test. Also London doesn't get as cold as NYC so I'm not so worried about that https://allbluescostore.com/product/all-blues-co-karakoram-parka-red/
