If you go this route, make sure you get the faux-fur zip-in liner. Mine keeps me warm in negative temperatures, and with the liner out I can wear it year round. They sell the hood separately (storm hood), and they offer alteration and rewaxing services. They will indefinitely service the coat and fix whatever is needed. Some people have been wearing the same coat for 20 years with only a few original panels remaining.

I think it’s kind of expensive though, even considering the build quality, which has been criticized by some as not being as durable expected. Specifically, the seams on the hand warmer pockets tend to rip (I had this problem and attributed it to my longer arms hanging on the seams, but others have reported this problem too). I have used their alteration and rewaxing service, so let me know if you have any questions.
