Also, because they can. There is better out there, but thats not to say they are not nice. Yeah well I think it's the new North Face. Joined Sep 4, Messages Reaction score 0. I've had a Moncler coat for several years. I love it - it's absolutely impermeable to cold. I tried on many other coats when I bought it.
That was , so perhaps the quality has changed as they've moved more into the mass market. I had certainly never heard of the label when I bought it - made the decision based on look and feel alone. I can't speak to the many shiny, "prada-ish" looking ones I see everywhere now. LawrenceMD Distinguished Member.

This material also makes the jackets extremely durable, unlike other jacket brands. In addition , the jacket uses the best quality of yarn and raw materials.
Besides the jackets, the company also makes the best quality down coats using the highest quality of materials. They also use down sourced from white geese to insulate their down coats. Goose down is famous for its unique insulation ability.
In addition , goose down is the best quality down in terms of performance and composition. The company also makes its winter coats using fur trims gotten from coyotes. However , as a price-influencing factor, it is easy to understand why their fur coat is so expensive. Product Manufacturing.
Moncler makes its clothes in Europe. Manufacturing in Europe is a lot more expensive than if they were being made in other countries like China, where manufacturing costs are generally lower. Beware of jackets claiming to be Moncler and made in Italy or France since they are likely to be counterfeit. Despite being an Italian brand, the company does not make its products in Italy or France, except for a few limited collections made in Italy.
Target Demographic. Moncler jackets are not made for everyone. Ideally , the luxury brand designs jackets and attire for individuals who can afford their high-quality, uniquely designed products. So what makes it so expensive? But Moncler products would seem to be well made too. A Moncler coat, like Burberry or Chanel, is a status symbol. Still, it takes a special kind of person to drop that kind of cash and Prabhakar says the U.
But record sales and a solid stock were not the case for Moncler just a few years ago. The global recession caused a significant dip in profits for luxury companies like them. With economic data showing all-time highs in household wealth many consumers who may have shied away from the Monclers of the world just two years ago are dipping their toes back in the luxury market today.
That may be true for some but there are still over 10 million unemployed Americans in this country and plenty more under-employed. Buffett is betting big on his favorite company.
It might be time to follow suit. Inflation is at a year high. But these Mad Money megatrends could help you fight back. There was no company-specific news or developments, so why did the fuel-cell stock gain so much in value? The down and other materials are also responsibly sourced and meet the required standards necessary, such as the DIST standard for down insulation.
All of these come at a financial price however, which must be accounted for in the retail prices of their finished products. We will cut to the chase here, Moncler does not design clothes for everyone. Their luxury jackets are made for those that can afford to pay for a unique design of high quality.
Their jackets are well-made in both design and comfort, and if you have the money and are keen on looking chic, a Moncler jacket is worth a shot. Their jackets are undoubtedly very stylish, yes, even the puffy down jackets, and they are exceptional at providing insulation. A good thing about their jackets is that they are made for functionality, therefore they can be used for different activities and not solely worn as a fashion piece.
Moncler jackets are quite well-made and their down coats are a great choice for harsh winters as they come with both weather-protection and the amazing insulation provided by goose down.
The number of styles and designs is considerable and not limited to the standard looks we are used to seeing everywhere, even from other major brands of the same caliber. The answer to that question would be that it depends on what you are looking for.
If you want functionality and style this might not be the brand to go for. In our opinion, there are several other brands out there with much more affordable jackets that are high-performance and fit perfectly. On the other hand, if it is cold where you live and you are in need of a very well-insulated jacket that is also shiny, stylish and lightweight, then a Moncler down jacket will do the job perfectly and it will also last quite a while.
In that regard, they are worth the price.
