I need a new winter coat. https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/men-warm-tech-down-coat-172994.html is $50 off right now. I can't decide between the black and green. I usually wear dark wash jeans and a t-shirt/button down. Also I know last years model needed to sized down but am not sure about this year's model.
I am also looking at the Alpha Industries Slim Parka on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005BXEQ3I/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&th=1&psc=1. It is a little cheaper at checkout today on Cyber Monday. Torn between Sage and Replica grey for that one.
EDIT:
Ordered them both. Uniqlo has free returns through PayPal and Amazon had free returns on Prime.
Alpha Industries makes a parka that fits your description. You can get it cheaper on [Amazon.] (https://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Slim-Fit-Removable-Faux-Fur/dp/B00DVGRHTW/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1525189536&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=alpha%2Bindustries%2Bn-3b%2Bparka&dpPl=1&dpID=51qo-kzwfGL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1)
However, it really is heavyweight, so if your average winter temp is above 0 Celsius you'll probably end up leaving it open most of the time to not overheat. I have one, and have worn it in -18C weather with just a t-shirt under and not been cold.
Would this be a good substitute for the jacket?
I just got [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Parka-Black-Small/dp/B0058YZQE8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1408413206&sr=8-1&keywords=alpha+industries+parka) jacket for winter in Michigan. It's really warm and the quality seems really nice. And it's the brand the U.S. air force uses, so it's probably pretty good, plus I've seen it recommended on here a number of times before.
https://www.amazon.com/Tanming-Mens-Winter-Lined-Detachable/dp/B01NCDT44S same coat. If you want to read the reviews, but essential it says order 1 size up.
Another option would be this Woolrich parka, probably better quality than the Penfield and slightly less expensive: Amazon link
Heads up, Slim Fit Parkas on sale
I grew up in Indiana, now in college in Michigan. If you're looking for a full winter jacket, I wouldn't go with this because it's likely too lightweight. Another frugal option is Eddie Bauer; they have constant sales so their MSRP is misleading, but they do make good clothes with a lifetime warranty. This is a good option for about $140 on sale. You can also find Alpha Industries N-3B jackets on Amazon for decent prices as well.
I'd expect to spend about $100-$120 on a jacket that will be warm enough for full Indiana winters and last a while.
Here it is lil homie
http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Fishtail-Parka-X-Small/dp/B005AE5D3K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1457999761&sr=8-2&keywords=fishtail+parka
Amazon Essential has a Packable Down Jacket for $50, and a Packable Puffer Jacket for $40.
The only difference seems to be that the Puffer Jacket uses a synthetic filling.
I have the Puffer Jacket and can confirm that it's very warm, water resistant, and feels at least as good as the Uniqlo Ultra Light Down Jacket. I live in San Francisco, where it's perpetually kind-of-cold, and this has quickly become my go-to everyday jacket.
Currently own this, works like a charm!

just buy a parka
Alpha industries n3b slim is pretty popular and cheap: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056QPH9C/
wear that and you won't care if it's -20 degrees outside. Sure they don't look as stylish as a leather jacket but at least you'll be warm
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058YZQE8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Also, amazon has a 20% off deal until tomorrow.
Don't know if the size fits you, but here are some XS:

I'm looking for a stylish winter jacket, do you think I should just go with this cheap H&M parka, or shell out the extra cash for this alpha industries parka. I'm also more willing to spend the money on the alpha industries parka since I have a $100 amazon gift card.
Stolen from another recent thread, but I think this is approximately what you're looking for. Affordable too!

Some sizes/colors qualify for 20% off when purchased through Amazon.
Alpha industries N3b parka is a great alternative for the cost.
https://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Mens-N-3B-Parka/dp/B002VWK5UU
More or less. The most common colors are olive and black, so you can still rock the monochrome look if you want. And it looks like are lined fishtail parkas.

An Alpha Industries N-3B parka?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0058YZQE8
Would this get me through the depths of a Chicago winter? Would it work over a daily wardrobe that is mostly biz caz?
^^^^^ THIS and Amazon is having a lightning sale at 6:30 am PST, should be a good deal
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056QPH9C/
If money is not an issue buy yourself a leather jacket (preferably insulated) and you'll be good for new york weather with layering. You could also use that in Texas, so it's a solid investment. Or you can go with a parka (I'd recommend http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Parka-Orange-Medium/dp/B0058YZQW0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419707543&sr=8-1&keywords=alpha+n-3b)
Alpha makes ones in a similar color
http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-Industries-Fishtail-Parka-X-Small/dp/B005AE5D3K/ Still way cheaper on Amazon as compared to the Alpha Ind. website.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00W3YIX9G/ref=sxts2?ie=UTF8&qid=1480006818&sr=2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65
I have this jacket. Looks just like that one.
The alpha industries slim fit parka is great for the price. You can find them in sale occasionally for a little over $100, but I'd pay the $140 they are on Amazon and still be happy with it. I had to size down to a medium to get the fit right. Link
I'm deciding between these two jackets. Which do you think is best?
Black
[Brown]
(http://www.amazon.co.uk/VEDONEIRE-Jacket-pockets-brushed-lining/dp/B00EVT1M6C/ref=sr_1_1?s=clothing&ie=UTF8&qid=1422320827&sr=1-1)
I don't own a black jacket so that's what I'm leaning towards, although my current brown one is not really similar at all; I'd just like some variation in colour even if I prefer the look of the brown one.
I just bought this one off amazon because i was looking for a new lighter summer jacket and because it sort of reminded me of nate's jacket...

Si no lo encuestas mas barato como quiero creo q cake la pena. 100-120 es worth it.
I you're still interested I'm 90 percent sure it's this jacket. I own one, and it's awesome. I'm 6 ft 160 lbs and went for the large.
Thinking of trying to find a pair of those yellow North Face Vans to wear with my yellow parka. Would that be too much?
Does a small size of VEDONEIRE Mens Wax Jacket exist? If not, is there another cheaper, similar looking version for smaller guys?
I'm talking about this:

Anything like this under $50? I like the fit on this, it could be just a tad tiny bit slimmer though.
Oh gotcha. I'm finding many different results but maybe this: https://www.spotern.com/en/spot/tv/shameless/9978/the-bomber-jacket-beige-lip-gallagher-in-shameless-us or this might match better: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00W3YIX9G/ref=sxts2?ie=UTF8&qid=1480006818&sr=2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65
Don't know if you were interested in that Khaki one as well but I think I found one like it for a decent price!
This is from amazon.

Alpha Industries Men's N-3B Slim-Fit Parka
Bought a M in the recent Amazon lightning sale, paid $70. Amazon is not letting me exchange for size S without paying regular price now. If anyone wants this jacket I'm willing to pass the deal along plus actual shipping to you and any Paypal fee.
Thinking about grabbing an Alpha Industries bomber or parka. Anyone know if they do any sales for Black Friday or anything like that?
Edit: Amazon currently has the parka on sale for 109.99, found it on FMF just after posting this.
alpha industries makes a good one and at a good price
If you had to pick a real winter coat for Wisconsin winters: Alpha N-3B Parka in Navy or Sage or L.L. Bean Ultralight Down in Gray or Navy. I can't even begin to decide.
Gloves that go well with the Alpha Industries N-3B parka?
Amazon sells what it seems to be a Uniqlo ultra light down knockoff under its Amazon Essential brand: Amazon Essentials Lightweight Water-Resistant Packable Puffer Jacket — https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Essentials-Lightweight-Water-Resistant-Packable/dp/B0738JFRD1
Materials : Nylon, Polyester, YKK Zippers
Here is the Pack Hacker review: https://packhacker.com/travel-gear/amazon-essentials/lightweight-water-resistant-packable-puffer-jacket/
I really like the look of this jacket ( https://www.amazon.com/Tanming-Mens-Winter-Lined-Detachable/dp/B01NCDT44S/7W8NJYG7KF8BJ ) but from the pictures it looks cheaply made. I don't mind spending a few hundred on a "real" jacket.
This jacket also has the "look" I'm interested in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uHNWt4LRZY
I have two jackets that I got for around $150 which I love dearly.
J.Crew Peacoat, 25% off + 15% student student
Alpha Industries N-3B slim fit parka, $163, I had a 30% off, sry
Looking for a nice parka or really any kind of outerwear for winter. I've had my eye on the Alpha Industries Slim Fit N-3B Parka in sage/orange or replica blue/orange. I like it a lot, but I'm insanely skinny(5'8"-5'9" 115lbs.) and I feel like even a small would look huge on me. I guess I'm just looking for a decent coat sub $150, with a preference for parkas because I've never had one.
Waxed cotton. It's this one: http://www.amazon.com/BROWN-Large-chest-41-43-inches/dp/B00EVT1M9O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419900394&sr=8-1&keywords=vedoneire+mens+wax+jacket
FYI- also on sale on Amazon with free Prime, so costs are nearly the same if you need to ship.
Edit - whoops, looks like I got the last of the sale @$126 for slim N3B in replica blue.
Which color should I get this Alpha Industry parka? Navy Blue or Black?

Super late but I don't want to wait for tomorrow haha. A couple questions: does anybody know about Spiewak quality? Also, any opinions on this parka by them? It looks super warm, but I'm not sure how comfortable that fur lining will be. Also, I feel like it might look gaudy with the fur on the hood.
If Price is a factor, the N3-B can be had for ~$130 or less on Amazon, depending on your size and color
