Default Warm Jacket

I am in the market for a new winter coat. Trying to find something that does not crinkle in the cold for hunting and keeps me warm and dry ice fishing.

Needs to be washable.

Any one try one of those "ice armour" coats?

Looked around Edmonton on the weekend and didnt find anything.
Hopefully not breaking the bank but would like to get a couple of years out of it.

try a filson wool coat. warmest you can get, very quiet, and you'd be surprised how dry a wool coat will keep you. not sure about washability tho.

I've bought a lot of stuff from Cabela's and really like it. With the exchange rate these days, it might be better to shop in Canada though.
