The EB puffer is sold out, but here is the Danier one. I like the look of the moose jaw style best here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/parkapuffercomparisons#post-1588556 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 11:57:16 +0000 Style Fan 1588556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting.&nbsp; I have been looking at parkas in Montreal.&nbsp; It is only 0 degrees and I am cold.&nbsp; What will I do when it is -30?&nbsp; And then there are boots to consider.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/parkapuffercomparisons#post-1588456 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 01:52:01 +0000 Anonymous 1588456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that reddit forum /site. &nbsp;Looks like it might be interesting.

The geek in me loves the summaries.<br /> I need to research "fill power" power. I think it's related to the feather:down ratio, but I'm not certain. (&lt;- thinking to myself there.)<br /> Oh gosh, waiting for the bus in the windy prairies sounds like a situation for a very very puffy coat </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/parkapuffercomparisons#post-1588348 Sun, 29 Nov 2015 14:06:45 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1588348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The reprieve from the Canadian winter seems to be over now and some of us &nbsp;who were in denial are shopping for parkas and puffers. &nbsp;I started taking the bus to work on November 1st after our office relocated to an area with poorer access to good parking. &nbsp;The downside is waiting for an unreliable bus home. &nbsp;</p> <p>Suz's posts on puffers got me looking and I did a bit of research as well. &nbsp;I came across this article which rated a few of the more popular brands and styles and thought it might be of use to others as well.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.reddit.com/r/femalefashionadvice/comments/2rbbrk/getting_started_with_winter_parkas/">https://www.reddit.com/r/femal.....er_parkas/</a></p> <p>I am considering the Marmot Chelsea. &nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Marmot-Women-s-Chelsea-Coat_10252483_10208_10000001_-1_"><a href="http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Marmot-Women-s-Chelsea-Coat_10252483_10208_10000001_-1" rel="nofollow">http://www.moosejaw.com/moosej.....0000001_-1</a>...</a></p> <p>If the Danier Sylvia parka was a bit longer, I think I would get one since the fill power is comparable to the Canada Goose. &nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.danier.com/silvia-performance-fabric-parka/d/2922">http://www.danier.com/silvia-p.....rka/d/2922</a></p> <p>Eddie Bauer Stadium parka looks similar in style to the Chelsea as well so that is an options.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/product/women--39-s-superior-down-stadium-parka/20612307/_/A-ebSku_0064074100000060__20612307_catalog10002_en__US?showProducts=&amp;backToCat=Outerwear&amp;previousPage=FNAV&amp;tab=women&amp;color=100"><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/product/women--39-s-superior-down-stadium-parka/20612307/_/A-ebSku_0064074" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/prod.....ku_0064074</a>...</a></p> <p>For some reason, I am losing the YLF collect so can't add the parkas but have added links to a few. </p>
