I forget where it is, but look for the tech outerwear threads on here and sufu. the main guy from acronym has stated that veilance is the number one tech brand and has been the main influence on the more fashionable tech brands. I remember reading that the brand had gone through changes in ownership though so ymmv.I guess Arc’teryx Veilance doesn't belong on that list since I've seen them sold at outdoor shops. I'm always a little skeptical when fashion labels tout their garments as somehow technically advanced. I really doubt there would be any significant difference, though I'm still intrigued...
leave the experimenting for someone else. we dont want to find poor snakey frozen atop a mountain in stone island shadow project!!

Please don't.
When you go above Columbia level tech brand, its just the matter of brand name and the "little attention to details" bs. I found my friend's SI jacket poor in construction (not talking about seam tape Appreciation here) and durability compared to regular North Face stuffs.
As for Canada Goose, I am going to call them today because of their cheap zipper that snapped when I was boxing it.

yeah, errolson hughes is also canadian
didn't marginal release a pair of gets like that? or am i making this up?
anyone order from isaac reina directly? can you order from past seasons? asking because the website still lists prices for previous seasons, up to a certain point.
fuuma? hoping you might know the answer to this random question!!
Most fashion brands just focus on the details... the whole point of Arc'teryx Veilance was to use superior construction and an absence of those frivolous details. The focus was just on muted technical perfection. It only caught on in the internet fashion world because of a) the name (seriously, veilance just fits in with the whole tech/goth ninja hybrid aesthetic), and b) the quality/price point of their jackets was the highest of anything not made by gaudy Moncler; it was simply a whole other level (rightfully so, Veilance stuff is unparalleled in the attention to detail and the quality of fabric).
This is also why most outdoor enthusiasts buy Arc'teryx stuff - compared to the Columbia/TNF/whatever else, Arc'teryx is just on a whole other level with fabric technology and construction. My family and I have always been avid outdoors people, and we've sworn by Arc'teryx stuff for decades (so perhaps I am a bit biased), but my dad's Sidewinder ski jacket from the 90's is still in pristine condition, and all the zippers/seams are basically new.
