| - I need to tell all of Yelp that I have found the perfect vegan winter coat at Mountain Equipment Co-Op. I have been searching around for forever, for a functional jacket that is not filled with down, that I would feel comfortable wearing on a winter hike, that is a reasonable price as I am sometimes tough on my clothes.
Enter the Mountain Equipment Co-Op Frostbreaker Parka available in women's and men's styles, filled with a down alternative, hyperloft. I spoke with a sales associate regarding this coat, and he was super friendly, informing me that he actually had the men's style and that he has worn it on the cooooldest Calgary days, as I was a little bit wary about whether this jacket would be up for the challenge.
As they didn't have any blacks in a medium in my size, I ended up calling MOUNTAIN EQUIPMENT CO OP SECRET HEADQUARTERS, and they had one shipped for me, to my door, with no additional charges. This jacket was only $140. It showed up this past Friday and I had it by our -20 degrees day on Saturday! Life rules so hard, and I have such a crush on MEC right now for providing me with the warmest things.
MEC seriously has everything one needs for the winter right now in one little stop. My next purchase will be some thick cozy gloves and moisture wicking socks for under winter boots. I've also been advised that I should take my bike into MEC to get it prepared for the winter.
(5/30!)
