You are an american? Canada ain't revolving around Toronto.
This winter, the entire SK, AB and BC had amazing weather. Only 6 days where temps dropped bellow -30 in SK/AB and most of the winter was -10 with even occasional above 0. The past 2 months temperatures have been hovering around 10-20, and this week there will be +30 in all 3 provinces. Crazy amount of sunshine too

I think mitts been hitting the sauce a bit too hard over there at Bain capital. Over $1k for an expedition that's probably about 50% as good (quality wise) than the ones that were coming off of the manufacturing lines 6-7 years ago at 60-70% of the price. Lol yeah ok m8.

I grabbed one this past winter and it kept me pretty warm. Think I need something with a fur hood though....and frankly don't care about the brand. I'm leaning towards CMFR since they tend to have good sales from time to time (sample sale, 50% off boxing day) and basically run with my Acteryx and that one. Very happy with the quality, breathability and weight.aznnorth wrote: ↑I'm leaning more towards arcteryx. Their down models are just as warm as TEI 5 in CG... AND they go on sale at seasons end whether in-store, altitude sports, the last hunt, etc. I mentioned in another thread I got 2 arcteryx for 50% at SL just a month ago... CG is craptastic these days.
I simply cant shell out $10000 for a winter coat that a) does not breathe, b) not waterproof, c) a clear regression in quality. I don't knock those who do.... I just can't do it.

I bought a North Face jacket that I probably wouldn't have normally gone for based on the OP's claim that winter jackets will "surge" next season. I guess we'll see if he's right about the increase or not.

Price hikes have hit Arcteryx. Argh!! Was looking for a beta AR goretex pro... selling at 25% at SL for $450. Thought to look around and at the end of the day the Arcteryx came out the winner. Went back to SL and now the same jacket is $700. A hundred bucks above retail the week before at $600. Pathetic. At least Arcteryx goes on sale a few times a year... Nuts!

I just picked it up last week during friends and family and then had a bunch of gift cards from staples and eBay, ended up paying $404 out of pocket

Thats weird, it looks exactly the same as the one listed on Arcteryx current website. If that Beta AR / Theta AR are indeed the 2015 models, I would wait till they release the Theta SVX replacement / 2016 Alpha SV and they should clear the old shells out.aznnorth wrote: ↑Price hikes have hit Arcteryx.

Arcteryx will go on sale and sometimes the discounts are steep. The problem is with these brands that charge through the roof while the quality falls off and the item never goes on sale. Those companies (Canada Goose) will not see my money.
