If you’re not picky about color, keep an eye out on Altitude Sports and Live Out There. They have good deals especially around Boxing Day with leftover stock. Lucky for me, I personally like the fun crazy colours. Getting bored of black lol

MEC, Mountain Warehouse, and Columbia probably have cheaper similar alternatives, but I’m not too familiar with them. (... because I worked with Arc and know people there.. not because I’m a brand whore.)
I'm definitely not picky about colour, I ordered this https://www.sportinglife.ca/p/246946...lpha-ar-jacket in the Blaze Orange :P Not looking to hide out in the woods, I think a bright colour is better in case you need to be spotted!
