Let's get back to the previous conversation we had a while back regarding Parka's and winter jacket's! What is everybody rocking these days for warmth ??

I bought a few down filled vests from Uniqlo from their clearance/sales sections for $30 before the holidays. Just as warm as a Canada Goose vest. I used to have heavyweight parkas but I'm trending toward ultra-light and comfortable for winter. I'm going the way that a lot of climbers are toward lightweight but high-tech. Layering all these together makes a massive difference and adds flexibility compared to one heavy parka. The warmest thing I have in my layering is actually this North Face future-fleece.
