Great Parka

Ranked #433 - Men's 3-in-1 Jackets
October 30, 2008
Bought this last year before a ski trip to replace my old North Face Parka. Held up great for the trip and have been wearing it ever since. Windproof shell makes it great for cold windy days in Kansas. Fleece liner looks great as a standalone and keeps me plenty warm when I'm not in full-on bundle up mode. Removable hood is a nice feature (I always thought rolling it up in the collar looked kinda dorky) and was a great improvement over my old North Face. Plenty of pocket space means there's no reason why you can't carry the hood somewhere else, too. For the price, it's hard to beat.
