These days I bought some new clothes and shoes. Now I need to buy winter shoes and winter jacket. Before I usually used sky jackets, mostly Colmar... last 10-15 years. Now I need some dark and more serious... I saw this jackets... Alpha N3B Barricade with Fox Fur  But I like more this N2B Barricade. But it's hard to find Black...  Someone have these jackets maybe. On site they say for Extreme cold weathers. What you think N2B is nicer than N3B. Fur could be removed before dry cleaning. And Boots Magnum Strike 6.0 WP  At the moment I have these shoes NIKE Air Max 90 Essentials...

We come from different places with different climates and different cultures. I don't think you will find our input very valuable. Clothing is part of your identity. Don't let us decide for you. But, if you must have my opinion, I personally like the N3B jacket more than the N2B jacket.

+1 Vlada, because it covers more. That's a very good point ty_ger. :)

I would take N3B for extreme cold weathers over N2B.

Yes, I understand, that N-3B is better... But I mostly wear shorter jackets similar as N-2B. Maybe even tighter. Both are nices... These are Men jackets... Women have own collection. Problem is because this color-Black N-3B no any more on Alpha site. Only N-2B. But other shops sell as well, price is similar. N3B is 450$ N2B is 425$ But there is a models without real fur and they are 165$ and 180$. http://www.alphaindustries.com/mens-parkas/alpha-industries-n-2b-parka.htm http://www.alphaindustries.com/mens-parkas/mens-parkas.htm I don't know, I'm most for shorter N2B Barricade with real fox fur removable before dry cleaning. But for her I could buy both and N-2B and N-3B Parka. I think these jackets are very cool. There is and others on their site for Spring but I don't need them at the moment. Anyway one thing is sure, N-3B I could wear longer time, because that jacket could be wear and in 40 years. But I never had so long jackets.

Looking at the climate of Belgrade Serbia it looks to be about 32F or 0C for the winters. In that kind of a climate I would say the N-2B would be fine as long as you don't work outside and need a coat to keep you warm for long amounts of time. If it was something like going to the store or to work N-2B is the one I would pick. If I was camping out overnight to see Star Wars Episode VIII the N-3B.

In Belgrade could be -20 or more... January and February... Every year is at least -15 and about -10 at least 30-35 days.
Coldest wether I experience was in Moscow, -32 on Red Square.
But I didn't felt... I felt like -10-15C in Belgrade.
N-2B Barricade Black look GREAT.
I have store in Belgrade, but because no such model and prices are very similar I will check number to confirm and buy from their site same size.

I wear before such similar colorful jackets Colmar, Descente. Now I look for something more classic jacket. This Nike shoes I will buy in Monday, on discounts, they are 65 euro, from 110 euro. Nike Hoodland Suede Triple Black. Than I have Magnum Shoes for Winter/Snow, Nike for Rain and Autum and Nike for Dry weather.  Always is possible to find on discounts in Nike Shop some nice shoes. I wear Nike whole life, Reebok, Adidas, Puma no... Only Nike.  I almost decide about jacket N-2B Alpha Black.

Yeah but where has Vlada011 been? He hasn’t signed on in a long time. Hope he is alright. Just looked it’s been one year.

It's spam. Look at their profile. It is a jacket salesman spammer account. Probably they tried to post a link to their product as well.
