It's crazy how prices of things have gone up.
My woolrich barn jacket cost me like $38 a year ago and now you can't find them for under $90.
Maybe people are realizing new woolrich is worthless so they're willing to pony up for the better American made examples ?
I can't imagine that " Elmer fudd looking " hunting coat with that kind of ugly looking collar being very fashionable, but then most fashion trends never make any sense to me.
I don't get fashion and could never correctly guess what's gonna be popular next.
For all I know the next cool think will be wearing old celluloid toilet seats around your neck.
Don't know about Woolrich, but the Filson jackets/coats are a lightweight version of the old stuff. If I remember correctly, their Mackinaws are in 24 oz. and 26 oz. That's as heavy as they get. By comparison, my old Woolrich is about 30 oz. It is a warm jacket. I can't say the same for my 24 oz. Filson. More fashion wear than cold weather wear.
