I know this post is a little stale but I had a McMurdo parka when I lived in Edmonton, AB, Canada. It was my go-to parka for anything colder than -20 centigrade but anything warmer than -15 and it was too much. It was very durable and looked pretty much brand new after 5-seasons before I donated it. I didn’t like wearing it very often however because of it’s bulk and low end finishing. For just shear warmth and durability it’s excellent though.

I am also a bit afraid that the McMurdo is far too warm for our rather mild German winters. It gets barely below -5 centigrade, -10 is already an exception where I life.

I also had the impression that the McMurdo has a very good quality. I often read the opossite online but it felt very high-grade with a lot of functions.

Sadly I had to send it back as Medium was far too big even though I usually wear Large on jackets. Currently waiting on a Small one and then deciding if I will keep it :)

Cool, hope it works out. I feel like either jacket will definitely last you a long time when you find out which you like more.
