Eddie Bauer 90th Anniversary – Sat Oct. 16

do you need it right now … there will likely be massive sales post xmas ….

Someone wrote that they are still putting stock up early in the morning. I have seen more down sweaters a couple times over the last week– at $40 and change.

I want one of those fleece hoodies they have– gridded stuff like an R1.

Looks like they had a similar sale to celebrate in Feb. Are you sure they're having another?

oh … as to the other part of the question

i guarantee youll get more use out of the downlight … i have both and im afraid to wear the ex without a shell … it feels that fragile

the EB ill wear anywhere … around town, in the woods on its own, etc…

ex is great … but its a specialized piece of gear that you need be careful with …

I went to try one on this Monday to see what fit so I knew what size to order if I saw one on the clearance site. I'm between a M/L in Eddie Bauer sizing so I probably won't snag one at clearance pricing. The shop clerk told me that I should come back this weekend for their 90th anniversary sale for big discounts. Several mall websites show the event as a 30% off sale.

The store clerk also said I could return it if it ever started showing feather loss. Maybe he was just trying to make a sale, but that seems like a pretty good return policy.

Google "eddie bauer 30% october 16 2010" for results.

30% off everything including sale and clearance items…code CELEBRATE

I went to the nearby EB store today thinking the sale lasted through the weekend – turns out if was Saturday, 16th, only. Oh well…I'll wait til the next sale.

I curious if anyone has weighed the new style downlight sweater? The nylon shell changed from the earlier version and seems a bit heavier although the drop-in pockets (inside jacket) are gone now which is a shame but might offset a weight increase with the new fabric.

I've got a Blue one size small for sell that is new with tags. It is one of last years that I got a month ago but it doesn't fit me. I will ship it CONUS for $65 to break even.

The new down jackets are discounted down to the $120's this week for their down event.
