Didn't see much posts about parkas that we are wearing. So please post them here and share your experience.
I will start with my few parkas for Canadian winter.
Love this coat from Descente, wearing it mostly to my office. Pretty warm, great water and wing proofing.
Woolrich Laminated Parka. Unlike their famous Arctic parka this one is covering your neck much better. Very warm, although I would wish for more wind proofing. When windy it gets easy underneath so you need to wear some warm pants. Suppose to be waterproof but didn't test it much in wet conditions.
And this crazy warm waxed parka from Company of Adventures, this kinds of their parkas were only produced for one or two years. Bought it about 7-6 years ago still wear it occasionally for some winter walks with kids.
Thinking of getting parka from Arcteryx: Therme or Thorsen haven't decide yet.
