Grizzly Questions

Howdy all,

I’m pondering buying a Grizzly jacket.
I wanted to ask if you all have experience with them?

How warm are they? Are we talking deep winter B-3 level warm or A-2 with a sweater underneath warm?

Are they easy to wear, or cumbersome and get in the way?

Do you get a lot of use out of them or do this sit in the closet for 11 months of the year?

Thanks all,
Any info and photos help

All my thoughts are in there:


They are really cool jackets, my favourite way to wear sheepskin.
They are waterproof, block the windchill a lot better than regular leather, are far more breathable than a B-3.
IMO they are a lot easier to wear than a B-3, but not as warm.
With a good lining you are good to slightly below freezing, wheras a B-3 is designed for -30c.
