Cop the Armada Fur Ball and wear it under a shell, then you're paying $50 for the fur hood and not whatever extra the jacket company will charge just for the novelty of fur. Or go to TJ Maxx and look for Def Jam University shit. Thats what I did last year.

I found this jacket and it is decently cheap but it looks like it has no snow skirt and water proof cuffs ect. is it just howit looks or is this jacket made more for wearing around town rather then skiing.
