Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

nvm lol

Jbreen, I might be an outlier here, but I'm going with the Dunderdon. I think you're right about the side zips on the CG, and I'll add that I don't care for the label and patch.

Not mad. I like dark, inky washes like that.

I like the labels and patch. It's a nice change from all the NF stuff you see around. But the side zippers are kind of weird. It would bother me all the time. It's a nice down jacket but for $450 i don't want some weird feature to piss me off. But the dunderdon is a nice jacket, just not as warm.

Jbreen, I would not be surprised if the side zips did serve some function. Maybe if you unzip them, the coat expands a bit to give you more room for layers, and if you zip them, the coat gives you a snugger, warmer fit. Maybe they're vent zips.

Try emailing Context or contacting CG to find out why they have them.

Context says the side zips allow access to pockets. So I'm guessing there are interior pockets that the zips allow you to get to but I'd rather just unzip the front of the jacket. Canada Goose says this jacket is meant for tactical units in cold regions and the side zips allow access to firearms. I'm not going to be carrying any guns around so they still seem dumb.

^ I like the dunderdon better too. The CG is over twice as expensive and I dont think it looks twice as good if at all.

This one seems pretty sick too but it looks even more hardcore and probably too warm.

http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/ADRIAN...D/sts/sr_men80 made by caruso 100% cashmere, its a solid color, but even then, i cant think of any situations when i could wear it, but it seems like at this price i should get it and store it until i can ... http://www.yoox.com/item.asp?sec=1&Y...S&sts=sr_men80 eg toggle coat... btw how does sizing work on eg? if im a 38r should i get s or m in the outerwear? i am just concerned since it is unlined.. will the wool be uncomfortable?

skip that cashmere jacket and don't look back. the EG looks ok (the toggles look out of place to my eye, personally), nothing special; someone else will have to help you on the sizing.
