What do you mean reliable? Lol it’s a fucking jacket. It’s not like it doesn’t start sometimes...

Solid option. I have bought some vests from there. But remember, it's all about the fit and quality. Not about the logo/brand/money spent on the item.

They are awesome! Every time I wear mine I get a ton of compliments. The quality and style are excellent. I have a quilted blazer style coat.

Very east coast preppy

Wearing one right now. Slightly pretentious and not warm. But dead reliable

I have a couple of their jackets and always get compliments. Not a bad choice.

It's not gonna rip, it's not gonna get you wet, you can throw it around wherever.

Way cheaper than Canada goose and just as warm. Love mine. Fair price for a excellent coat.

@EY1 have both... pound for pound better jacket but definitely not “just as warm” as CG.

Found out today my toxic manager bad mouthed me to an HR rep in a different division. This correlated with his bad management and abusive behavior. Luckily the new manager I’ll soon be working with dismissed it. Her words of wisdom “reflect on what you could have done differently, you can only control your actions”. How does that resonate for you? Have you had similar experiences?
