You cant really expect to get The Best Quality cold weather gear in a country that doesnt have the meanest cold weather. You cant even get the best coats in the South. A guy from Chicago gave me a Pea Jacket he had shipped down from Chicago ( the year After I gave him a coat, because he had come to West Texas thinking he wouldnt need one. I saw this guy from my algebra class walking , in a Tee shirt, so, I gave him a ride, took him to the house, tossed him a fleece lined blue jean jacket & Suddenly, was wuz Friends! He thot Texans were a/holes till then) , anyway, that jacket is Warm,, much better than the coats Ive bought in Texas. A guy I knew was being sent to Siberia for an oilfield job. His company sent him to Houston, where he was measured & they had clothes made for him to go to Siberia in,,they were Awesome, fur lined hoods & everything was leather & lined with fur & filled with fluffy stuff to keep him from freezing. Whats available to people in the South for cold weather just isnt really great, IMO.
