I am looking for a warm coat that would be sufficient for the
winter in the Midwest.
Originally I was planning to get a down coat.
However, in one store they tried to sell me this coat
that has a thin sheet of insulating material inside called Thinsulate.
The nice thing about this coat is that it is not as bulky
as down coats.
I would like to hear from people who have worn Thinsulate coats.
Are they really warm enough for a "real" winter ?
Are there any special problems with them ?
