The Rugged Ridge Parka is a warm and functional winter coat that many customers find highly satisfactory. It is praised for its exceptional warmth, keeping wearers comfortable even in very cold temperatures. The coat is well-designed, with a great fit, ample storage space, and useful features like the hood and cinching details. While a few customers reported issues with the zipper, the majority found the parka to be well-constructed and durable.
Many years ago, I had a Bean parka with exactly this color scheme. I loved it. I wore it for years. Finally, I wore it out. I was so excited when I saw the color scheme again,

I don't like the Velcro Closures...would definitely prefer snaps! Also, the zipper is very stiff.
The color is fantastic! Unfortunately i haven't had the chance to wear it much as

I wore out the other one of these that I had and I had to get this again because I can depend on it to keep me warm in Michigan winter.
