Random question, but does anyone have recommendations for a WARM wintercoat? I'm talking ready for the arctic type warm. 🐻‍❄️

I'm so sick of getting scammed by these flimsy polyester napkins cosplaying as winter coats.

@Gina Decathlon is SO cheap compared to competitors, while offering the warmth you desire.

If style matters more than money, I recommend you check out Patagonia.

@fbecart at this point I don't care about money or style, I just want warmth 😭

@Gina My current polyester napkin has a Primaloft filling and it's pretty good in the winter. For more active needs I'd just go with a windproof shell jacket and plenty of merino wool layers.

@Gina I sympathize, I hope you find a coat that will make you comfortable for all of winter 🫶

To be more specific about Decathlon, I recommend you try models SH900 and NH900 from Quechua.

@Gina not sure about the specific models but I have a winter coat from G staw raw which is really warm, a barbour which is not as warm but extremely handy on rainy days, and for cold (sunny) days when I need a lighter option I use one from napapijri of the type that is filled with feathers or whatever the alternative is nowadays.

These three cover my winters from 15 to -5ºC aprox
