Hi
I was wondering if any of you have any other Tilley products other then a Tilley hat? I was thinking about getting a Tilley jacket. Just wanting to know your thoughts?
Thanks

Although not nearly as stylish, I really like Carhartt canvas "chore jackets" with the brass "buttons" on them that are blanket lined, not the quilted liners. I have three. One is the really old dog from the 1990's that is well worn. Next up is a brown one that looks better and is not as worn, but it has a lot of character. The newest is my "dress" jacket, which is not that faded. I think the most that I have paid is around $75.

I use them all winter in the Chicago area to blow snow, go skating on the pond, split wood, take the dog out for a walk, etc. Workingman.com in Indiana has a good selection and decent prices. I also love Key brand overalls. Wearing a pair right now, after having blown leaves all day and moved about 1,000 lbs of free mulch from our township "free to residents" pile. I'm tired.

I know a lot of people in Wisconsin that wear them all winter long too. Since moving to Oklahoma I haven't given it any thought to buy one. Maybe I'll look into it
Thanks
