Fall weather is among us and that means winter is right around the corner. If you're looking to replace your old winter coat, now is the time to start shopping. To support Canadian designers, look no further than Mix Mix, a Quebec women's store that carries only local designers. You can shop online or from one of their three locations: Montreal, Joliette, and Saint-Hyacinthe.
Mix Mix carries winter coats from Mackage, Ookpik, Pajar, Point Zero, and Rudsak to name a few brands. There are some pros and cons from shopping at Mix Mix:
PROS
You can try coats from different brand in a single location. Since these jackets are an investment, you can try various styles and see how they fit before you make your purchase.
Some of the prices at Mix Mix are better than shopping at the actual store. Mix Mix has deals on some of their jackets and if you have your heart set on a certain style I would check this store first.
CONS
They only carry a few styles for each of these brands so you may not see all the different styles that are available to you.
Since their store carries multiple brands, you might not have many sizes to choose from. Therefore you may end up going to the actual store to get the coat you want.
When shopping for a new winter coat, my tip would be to do your research before you make your purchase. If you want one store that's a great start to your coat quest, check out Mix Mix.
