let me reiterate - everyone's definition of cold is not the same. I was born in Sask, spent a big chunk of my childhood in Calgary, before moving here - so actual harsh winters were very much the norm for most of my childhood in otherwords. today, I wore a beater, an underarmour thermal, my dress shirt + tie, as well as the "winter" jacket supplied by work (fleece lined), as well as thermal underwear underneath my dress pants. today, on october 13th. didn't sweat, was a rather good temperature all day actually. are you going to continue to tell me that i'm only wearing my Goose jacket at this time of year for show?

for the record, i have yet to pull it out of the closet, but there are nights sitting on the patio that i've been tempted to. by november it'll be out, that i can almost guarantee
100% I'm stereotyping, they exist for a reason haha. Will there always be those to prove the stereotypes wrong, yes. For what it's worth i'm agreeing with you. I should've said that "most" people who wear a CG in Van are doing it for show.
