    This reads as you don't want to spend extra.

    Buy the most comfortable jacket for your application and don't care where it's made. A lot of name brand stuff will be made overseas. Steiner has one of their jackets made in USA.

    Up in Smoke apparel has some good stuff but they're fellow Canadians, not American. They do claim to use all North American products tho. They're also no cheap

    I think you were just typing too quickly and left out a few words

    I know you meant: " I don't care if I HAVE to spend more money "

    Grainger has about the best price, on a quick search, for the Steiner 1215 jacket. I'm not sure what K'kins paid for mine.........was a Xmas present quite a few years ago, and I'm not sure what model it was, or even if it was a Steiner.
