Penfield invades DC

If you've been to one of DC's streetwear boutiques then you probably have seen Penfeild's coats, vest, and hoodies lining the walls and hangers.

Penfield was established in Massachusetts in 1975 and have built a reputation for making the highest quality down-filled jackets, fleece and outerwear. Most know for their 80/20 goose down (80% down, 20% feather), the American born outdoors clothier has arrived at Major DC and Common Wealth with some stylish pieces to keep you dry and warm throughout the winter.

I'm Deep into this Parka

I found this Sub Rosa parka by 10 Deep on Common Wealth's site. The two-layer bonded nylon jacket is completely waterproof thanks to its taped seams, waterproof main zipper, sleeve and back game pockets. Its also fitted with an adjustable hood. New Yorkers like to be seen, so the Deep crew added an oversized checkerboard print on the lower half of the jacket so you'll stand out in rain, sleet, or snow.

While everybody else breaks their pockets for the newest Face or H/H ($250+) for the same features, you can laugh knowing that you spent half that, look twice as nice, and your jacket is three times as exclusive.
