Not a huge customer but I too have bought parkas from Eddie Bauer that held up well.

And yes, I've worn it for about 20 of those years (I pull it out on occasion.) It has not been a premium brand for years, though. It turned into cheap made in china stuff you could get anywhere.


Me too. Still wearing the parka I bought there 15 years ago. I'm not sure I have bought anything else there except duffel bags years ago.

This. They've really gone downhill. I tried a handful of items over the past few years and sent all back. But I have 100% wool sweaters from many years ago and they've all held up great.


Same here. Eddie Baure used to be good like 20 years ago. For the last 8 years or so- going downhill in quality. Last time I went there was probably 2 years ago and never looked back.

Around 1990 or 1991 I got a full-length (mid-calf) black leather coat with detachable quilted lining. After I got mine, I saw Hillary Clinton photographed in one during the New Hampshire primary campaign, lol.
It was my go to work coat in the 90s and 2000s.
It is still beautiful and I still wear it when a parka is too casual, eg dinner downtown.

I remember carrying their backpacks in middle school in the early 90s. Those backpacks lasted!
