Men, Children & Dogs
Wintergreen
Men get almost equal time. The Northwoods Wool Jacket ($249) is 23 oz. 100% Melton Wool and lined in thinsulate. The charcoal-and-black plaid is the big seller, but as a New Yorker, my vote will always be for solid black.

Finally, Wintergreen has a solid collection of extreme-weather clothes for children and dogs.
Want to try these things on?
Think: online. But if you insist on visiting the Wintergreen store, start in Minneapolis, then head north. Four hours and 200 miles later, you’ll arrive in Ely.
Small? The permanent population of Ely is under 4,000. Ely is, literally, the end of the line --- as far North as you can go and still be in the United States. Beyond it are the Boundary Waters, a 1.1 million acre wilderness that straddles Minnesota and Canada.
