angryjoe Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I don't really like that second one, it looks a bit tacky. Some of the ones that LP posted look pretty nice, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those jackets don't look like they'll hold up at 0C :lol: I've seen that jacket at the Guess outlet. It doesn't look that shiny IRL. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavi Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I wear... A Winter coat... :uhh: I don't care about what I wear as long as it doesn't look really stupid. That's my policy when buying clothes, which I avoid like the plague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooferfish Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have an old worn out North Crest jacket. Its blue with a bit of yellow, and some black "reinforced" material around the shoulders..not the best looking jacket, but its kept me warm in some nasty weather.

pryomancer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I hardly ever wear anything other than a tshirt and jeans, I don't usually feel the cold. If I need to I'll wear a hooded top, I have a nice DC one at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oreocookie987 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have both of these, the top one is usually only for special occasions though.

stevepole Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I'm not sure a gap jacket would hold up to those either. Northface? I'm not asking for fashion advice. I wanna see what ppl wear I don't see northface as a fashion statement, i see it as a quality brand that makes high quality products. That does what they are designed for. My current winter jacket is a Columbia Titanium and its like 6 years old, and this year I'm looking at buying this northface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aeternitatis Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I just go to West49 every year and find something that fits, is decent enough to keep me warm during a Canadian winter (gets to around -50C here sometimes), and looks good. That second one looks horridly ugly, uncomfortable and it doesn't look like it's warm. "Only by going too far can one find out how far one can go." T.S.

Star. Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I usually wear hoodies or jumpers. If I wear a coat, my bag gets bunched up in the fabric. + I don't have a coat. Actually that's a lie. I have a nike air jacket which is horribly 'chavvy'.
