Nomex Flyer jacket
Been looking at nomex prices on e-bay to see where we're at and 45/P jackets can be had really cheap. However, 36/P jackets are typically priced 3 or 4 times higher. I didn't expect that!- Doctor Damage

Nomex Flyer jacket
Pulled out all my nomex this morning and tried it on and took a few photos. I've decided to move on my two Valley 36P jackets and my Valley 45P and Greenbrier 45P as none of these feel all that comfy anymore when wearing. I'll keep three 36P jackets which feel pretty good, and one 36P which was...- Doctor Damage

That's fine and practical, but if you're ever at a pop-up store for some hipster brand of moustache wax someplace in Brooklyn the Wrangler's just won't cut it and you'll be laughed out of the place.- Doctor Damage

What other things do jacket junkies feel it's not ok to go for the cheapest option
Men shouldn't wear jewellry and I consider watches part of that. Also, who needs to know the exact time at any given moment? Thor is probably the only member here who needs to know the time instantly but even he probably has a huge clock in his wheelhouse, and he's often bundled up so can't just...- Doctor Damage

What other things do jacket junkies feel it's not ok to go for the cheapest option
ha ha ha, I'm with you 100% on this! Goodyear welting is worshipped on other forums, but it's b.s. to claim that a pair of Aldens will last indefinitely. After all, if a re-soling requires you to strip off the soles, cork, and welts and then is re-lasted then you've removed half the shoe already...- Doctor Damage

Greenbrier 'Vintage' MA1 Jacket
Sounds you did well, and it's a good looking jacket. Glad the fit is good, I know you've had trouble with that in the past (well documented in this forum). It's getting hard to find affordable repro jackets these days!!- Doctor Damage

So exactly is a Car Coat?
Car coats were a big thing in North America in the 1960s and 1970s and everyone in the older generations had one - all of the men in my family had one. They were basically a normal overcoat or raincoat, usually single breasted, and cut extra short (longer than 3/4 but barely touching the knees...- Doctor Damage

Coldest Weather I've been in
Buffalo contains an extraordinary amount of amazing architecture, from civic stuff like you posted right down to individual homes. Plus they have one of America's best men's clothing stores, O'Connells. The city is worth a visit... just not in winter!- Doctor Damage

This is a good example of why it's best to wait to clean your driveway until after the city plow has gone by, otherwise you'll be doing it twice.- Doctor Damage

Coldest Weather I've been in
We're now getting the snow that Toronto got yesterday and it's slowly piling up. But, nobody needs to go anywhere, so that's fine. To riff on ton312's point, we had pancakes, sausages, and maple syrup for dinner tonight - perfect for a cold, snowy night!- Doctor Damage
