<p>I have a few questions about winter clothings:</p>
<li><p>I heard that Boston is wet and cold in the winter. So, down jacket/parka is not a good solution (the “down” inside can get wet). Is that true?</p></li>
<li><p>Any suggesting of winter jacket/parka that I should buy? Some stores rank jacket from -15, zero degree …</p></li>
<li><p>Any favorite store/online website that you will recommend?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Columbia jackets are awesomely warm! They are made for skiers and have some pretty cool colors. Check out their website <a href="http://www.columbia.com/%5B/url%5D">http://www.columbia.com/</a></p>
<p>Getting a ski jacket is a good idea, since they're pretty rugged with regard to weather.</p>
<p>I can usually get through the winter with just a wool peacoat, a scarf, earmuffs, and gloves, although when the wind gets whipping for a few days in January, the ski jacket gets busted out.</p>
<p>I got by most of the winter with only a hat and a sweatshirt. I would pull out my ski coat and wear tennis shoes rather than flip flops if I was going to spend a long time outside though.</p>
