_faaaDoes anybody have recommendations for a nice looking and affordable (up to 150) winter jacket?
Requirements: I dont wanna look like I m going on a 2 weeks backcountry expedition. Means: No Patagonia, TNF and so on. Black or beige. I am not a traffic light. Not too puffy cause looking like a popsicle isn t my thing, but still warm and a slimmer fit. Does a jacket like this even exist?

.MASSHOLE.Look at European brands then. They'll be more expensive but if you can find them on sale, go for it.
These brands include Norrona, Haglofs, Millet, Mammut, Fjallraven, Rab, and Bergans of Norway.
There are some North American options but I've never put one on. They are Outdoor Research or Arc'Teryx.
.MASSHOLE.Pissed we have to wait until 2018. That ending...
To be honest, if they really wanted to they could end the show with that episode and I'd be 90% OK with it. There'd be a few loose ends, but on the whole it'd be pretty complete.
RparrWhere is this? Fent has been absolutely annihilating northeast Ohio. Out of a graduating class of 220, I know 20 kids who are dead 4 years later from that shit.
RparrDamn, didn't know it had gotten bad out west too.
Many of them were junkies, some of them were new users. None of them were in real pain/had a condition. The common theme was they were all using heroin laced to hell with Fent
DeebieSkeebiesbecause of school shootings. didn't make me feel safe, though. just felt weird that we live in a time where kids cant even go to school safely anymore without the actual possibility of some kid gunning down their whole school.
.Rybak.I have a few friends with fjallraven jackets and I've been very tempted to get one. They are extremely comfortable and warm whenever I've had borrow them.
Eddie Bauer makes some pretty nice jackets that you can get for cheap if you buy them at the right time.
Some north face jackets don't make you look like you're going on a backcountry expedition but they can get pretty spendy.
_faaaThanks you both.
After a little research I ve found some Eddie Bauer stuff here. The Skyliner jacket looks pretty sweet but not sure how warm it will be on a -10F day :/
beetlejuiceon the west coast news you always hear about ppl taking some drug laced with Fent, and it's as if the people taking drugs with Fent laced in it are the victims?
if this the case on the east coast?
like im jw do you think ppl who are taking heroin or whatever drug that is laced with Fent are somehow victims? and they dont know that Fent is in the product? Like in the west coast new they are making it out like these ppl doing drugs are victims and unknowling are taking heroine and end up dying bcuz Fent is in it
the way i see it is that if your doing those type of drugs, that those drugs are always usually laced and you are always taking a risk and that just kind of comes with the territory
.Rybak.are you just looking at down jackets or shells as well? For a -10F day i would recommend getting some sort of shell jacket along with some sort of down jacket/vest that you can wear under that. It might be a little bit more spendy but you also need to look at how comfortable do you want to be on those days.
RparrEven further, there is carfentanil. Carfentanil is like fent's fent. It is so potent that people putting it on blotters in very tiny dosages and selling it as lsd. Now that rustles my jimmies, as psychedelics are the only drugs I even use these days.
_faaaI am looking for a warm but still elegant jacket during winter time for walking around in town or uni. Slimmer fit, no flashy colours preferable black/beige and warm enough on a -10 day. I heard down jackets do a good job in keeping you warm while not being too puffy or am I wrong? I dont wanna look like a weekend warrior going for a 2 day BC trip in his flashy blue Patagonia Nano Puff hoodie nor like a grandpa in his brown parka.
I already own a shell and proper layering, but I want something elegant for going out and so on.
.MASSHOLE.Well, down jackets are going to be puffy, especially if you want it to be warm in -10 (Fahrenheit). If you want a casual jacket look at those companies casual lines, like these options from Norrona click, click or this from Haglofs, click, .
But the warmer you want the coat to be, the more expensive it is likely to be.
FYI, Nano-Puffs aren't that bulky, but at the expense of warmth.
Chubz.I broke up with my girlfriend today and it was the hardest thing I've ever done. I didn't want to but everything in me was telling me it had to be done.
Shit fucking blows man she made my life so much better.
safarisamFUCK MONTANA STATE. It should not be this hard to get my PIN and get into my classes. JFC you'd think I was pursuing a PhD with how hard this is.
.lenconThen why'd you do it?
Chubz.Because I knew it wasn't going to last. We both want different things in life. We both have similar interests but I knew what we had was gonna fade out and figured I do myself a favor and end things now and take the pain and move on rather than wait and watch what we have fade away in front of me.
Idk if that even made sense I have a lot of emotions going through my head right now.
Fuck. Why is there no snow in NY
_faaa^Thanks a lot!
Yeah I kinda dig the style but 450 bucks seem a pretty pricey. Fjallraven is pricey too. My max budget is around 200. I surprisingly found some solid products from Patagonia that are acutally affordable for a college student:
first
another one
I d look a little bit around here in town if I can find a store that carries Patagonia. Not too common in euroland tbh.
No.QuarterLol, all I had to do was make an appointment with my adviser and she told me what classes I had to take and gave me my pin, took like 10 minutes.
unless we aren't talking about the same thing
RparrI don't think it's so black and white. Obviously, nobody should be shooting opiates. It is inherently fucked. I think people are alarmed because of how things have changed. When I was in high school, heroin was huge. I even snorted the shit a handful of times. Only 1 kid died in the entirety of my 4 years there. At least 20% of my grade did heroin back then. Now, fent is cheaper to synthesize than heroin. I have no idea why dealers would rather kill their customers than earn repeat customers.
Most of the kids who I know who have died lately were straight up junkies, and I don't feel bad for them. Continuously being an opiate addict for years will kill you eventually, fent or not. You've got to quit. But there were a couple who actually got hit with fent laced molly, and some opiate niave users who unknowingly got some fent. I feel bad when somebody who is an occasional user gets fucked by this shit, because I used to be a responsibly occasional user as well. Fent is showing up in all street drugs now. Coke, pressed pills that are made entirely out of fent. I think that's half the reason it gets so much blame.
Even further, there is carfentanil. Carfentanil is like fent's fent. It is so potent that people putting it on blotters in very tiny dosages and selling it as lsd. Now that rustles my jimmies, as psychedelics are the only drugs I even use these days.
No.QuarterThis shit definitely spooks me. I've been getting in to psychs recently and you always hear about people gettin fucked up by some shit laced in it, but you never think it will happen to you because people base decisions more on experience than warnings. So say you have had a few great trips so you now trust the drug more than you trust the dealer imo. Even when your buying from friends you never know where their shit came from. I know how important it is to test your stash, but even so I never have just because i'm lazy/forgot/overly trusting, and how many actual junkies do you think are gonna drop a 20 on a test kit rather than spend that 20 on the drug
