I wouldn't normally make a thread like this, but I want to give a recommendation for the Royal Insulated Jacket the Bomber Store sells right now.  I bought one to wear to the ESF in MTL.  It's probably the best piece of gear I've ever bought at the store.

High quality item and super crazy warm.  I'd say it's good enough for as cold as a -10C game (more with thermals underneath).  And it looks awesome with the W on the front and the Blue Bombers writing on the left sleeve.  My only complaint is the zipper is a bit sticky when unzipped if you don't move the bottom zipper up to meet it.

Oh ya, and it fits "small".  I take a LG normally, but for this one a M fit best.  Try it on before buying.

What's your favorite Bomber Store purchase this season?  I'm always looking to buy more!

Nice coat. I like the white polar fleece that the coaches and players are wearing. Saw several Riders in them at the Delta. Not on the Bomber website but available in the convention center pop up store. I attach pic.


Mitts were really nice too.

Isn't this how letters to a certain kind of magazine also start?
Money is no object...especially when you have none.

Wasn't released this year but a few years backs they dropped the starter pullover jackets which are deadly for anyone who grew up in the 90s

Ah, that must be Grey Cup-themed gear, eh?  Ya, I need to check out one of the popup stores at the festival(s).

To be unambiguous, the coat I referenced is pure Blue Bombers gear and not GC (which has to be a bit team-agnostic in order to sell).

From what I saw on the Bomber store online and in the airport 2 weeks ago, WPG has done a great job with the GC gear design.  Hope it makes the WFC another few hundred thou!!
