As a Canadian who lives and grew up in the northernmost city over a million in North America (actually one of the places Errolson Hugh went to school) to parents who were always really into hiking and camping, I can say with certainty that the trinity of Columbia, The Northface and Arcteryx are all brands that you will find in like 99% of outdoorsy people's wardrobes here and for good reason. In fact they were all largely considered 'dad brands' here up until pretty recently for their ubiquity in the camping world. Anyways my favourite jacket and most of my favourite pieces I own are actually And Wander so I'm glad you mentioned them! Great looking and high quality stuff, and there's a store within walking distance of me that annually blows it out at like -60% off so I've acquired a few nice bags and such that way as well.

I almost never do these bits of engagement bait…but what the hell…my favourite jackets right now are; 1. Chester Perry Metropolis series Co-Ted Explorer 2. Chester Perry Metropolis Tracery PRILFT. (Both have really interesting GD processes and the way they catch the light is sublime.) 3. Left Hand Elvo anorak 4. ST-95 Drogue smock 2.0 5. RÆBURN air brake anorak 6. SS23 Stone Island taupe/rust ice jacket. The thing is absolutely beautiful if not particularly wearable day to day. 7. The Vollebak Full Metal Jacket is amazing aesthetically. I feel like an astronaut every time I put it on. 8. The RÆBURN x Timberland puffer parka, it’s a stone cold banger and I wore it almost the entire winter. Notable mention goes to the SS23 Nike Tech-Pack Gore-Tex field jacket. Been wearing it almost a year now and it’s incredible for everyday use.

I picked up a Haven bellum (basically M65 style) jacket in white goretex pro and it looks sharp as hell. And its for some reason half price of the black version. It got marked down like $100 like a week after I bought it and I emailed haven and they gave me an in store credit for the price difference. Shout out to Haven!

4:30 I’m glad you’re putting this info out there. I do some copywriting for a small eco-friendly technical womens outerwear brand in Seoul, and I’ve since learned that fake YKK zips are indeed a thing. Not only are they worse in quality, they aren’t tested for dangerous heavy metals. Same thing with snaps and other metal hardware.

re: Ideal zips they’re good quality, at least on the same level of mid-high end YKK zips in my experience (i wouldn’t say i’ve owned any that feel as nice as an excella). i think they started as a military grade hardware manufacturer (my memory could be completely off base, though) and i’d say comparatively the zips i’ve seen from them are beefier/heavier overall, especially with how the action feels.

I have a really cool noragi-inspired collarless blazer from them and their button-up shirts are a traditional cut but use more comfortable fabric and include technical features like hidden vents to regulate temperature and hidden zippers to keep pockets closed.
