Re: Learn Me On Down Jackets
I'm from NH and think layering is more important than just a warm coat.
For jackets: Ibex is a good recommend, Swrve makes nice jackets, people like mountain hardware a lot and of course l.l. Bean, filson, etc. There are many more good companies that others here will recommend. With anything you get, make sure it comes with a hood.
Consider flannel. Pendleton's from the thrift are great and purposeful. Beans and Eddie Bauer have great selections for warm button downs. If that's not your style, maybe sweaters.
Wool or polyester base layers / undershirts + wool socks are bliss. Wool stinks less, polyester is stronger. blends are cool.
Mittens are warmer than gloves, hats should cover your ears. I know that's more than just jackets, but that's where I'd start for it all.
Cottage cheese for dinner, Greek yogurt for dessert, eat that everyday an' it will make your butt hurt.
