If your coming down this way. I would hit Madsens for sure they have a good selection. And Sunbirds has quite a bit also.

The stores I told you about also sell a coat made by Codet that is WARM, and really inexpensive. But well made.

Post by: sako223 on November 15, 2009, 11:09:42 AM: Yes I agree, I always wait for sale or use a coupon. I think that some of the cabelas wool is washable and less prone to shrinkage. With less expensive pants I buy long. If you get them the correct length then each year they get shorter. By the third year it looks like you have grown. The cold and snow gets in under the high water legs.

Post by: swanny on November 16, 2009, 05:39:39 AM: There's a military surplus in Seattle right after your cross over the Duwamish on 1st ave. I think it's called Nate's Surplus?

We used to get them there all the time when I was younger, haven't been in a few years though.
