I can't tell you how happy I am that I'm no longer limited to buying all my unlined jackets from Banana Republic.

If it breaks your heart, you could always have a tailor put in a lining for you. I wonder if the Woolrich Woolen Mills parka will be lined though, the designs are pretty similar.

I already inquired about that, and nobody is wiliing to do it. But wow, where did you find that parka photo and who is going to have it this year? I was hoping they were going to do a non-red plaid version of their mountain/trail parka this year, and that looks like it.

They were sent around a few months ago for a showing they put on, you should be able to find a couple more if you look around online. Bergdorf's is still carrying them, and Sam mentioned that context will be getting it for fall too.

Lord, it's hell trying to get through to Bergdorf, but I'll call again. I talked to Sam and I don't think they're getting that one.

Does anyone know if BG has any Woolrich WM marked down?

There wasn't a wool parka last year. The ripstop cotton ones were lined in wool through.

Yeah, the duffle had a thick thinsulate lining. It made it a very hot coat if you left it on for too long.

Slept last year on the duffle, i hope it comes out again this year. Good for the cold Canadian winters.

Yeah I slept on that one as well. Saw it in Tokyo, but it was crazy expensive. It would have been perfect. I did get the Thinsulate bedford though, and love it. Anyway they are not bringing back the Thinsulate duffel.

. Besides there you can try giving Odin a call to see if they have any left (that's where I got mine), although pickings will be slim to non-existent.
