𝟚 𝕐𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕀 π”Έπ•˜π• ... I joined the drop for this jacket, because I was in the market for a sub-$120 Parka that could be dependable & withstand sub-0 temps. Now, when I saw this $200 Parka throwing blows in the sub-$100 Parka bracket, I caught myself feeling ashamed that I had considered buying any other sub-$120 parka. Since I've owned Alpha Industries jackets before - and agree with many users on /r/malefashionadvice & styleforum.com that praise Alpha Industries for their reputation of making tough, good-looking, & warm jackets - I jumped into the drop. Since then it's been my go-to winter jacket, so I'll give you a couple different angles & source of feedback on why I think you would enjoy this as a daily-driver Winter Parka. --- π”½π•šπ•₯ π•’π•Ÿπ•• π•Šπ•₯π•ͺ𝕝𝕖... Personally I find that all the Alpha jacket sizes I've ordered were larger than the expected fit, so do some homework & consider sizing down when picking a size for this jacket. Thankfully when I sized down to small on this one, I didn't lose length of sleeves or length of jacket - the length of the jacket drops to my thighs, and the sleeves don't go past my wrists when stretching around.

I made some tables with the info on comparisons, but cannot include the tables as text in this message. To sum up the data I've collected below, H&M's Padded Parka looks like it's the same, but is $12 more expensive with less materials used in it's construction, less overall quality of materials used, and overall not as great a value. The only thing bad I could say about the Alpha is that it's so bulky & hefty that it's overkill in the Spring & obviously the summer.

--- 𝕋𝕃;𝔻ℝ... The N-3B Parka punches well above it's weight in the sub $120 range & is unmatched in comfort & utility at it’s $88.99 price-point. Although it’s a perfect jacket during the sub-0 Alaskan chilly winters, come spring time it will be overkill for the warmer seasons. You’ll likely want to put it in storage until Autumn, as it can get too toasty above cold temps & also gets soaked during heavy rainfall. I'd really like to know if this was helpful or not - feedback is always appreciated!
