no there all used by me......the leather bomber jacket i wore about 6 times, the yellow north face jacket i wore about 24 times, and the blue north face jacket i wore a bunch
i have pictures and there all in good shape but the blue north face jacket is the most worn of the three.
i bought another north face jacket but in a bigger size ---these are all way to small for me

That was my intiial response too, except I figured they were the cheap Chinese knockoffs that are all over E-bay these days. My co-worker bought a couple of North Face knockoffs the last time we went to China for work for like $25 per jacket, and they look pretty good but I am sure they will fall apart quickly and I sure wouldn't want to do any serious winter outdoor activities in them.

the blue and black north face jacket is a 700 down fill--warm as crap thats why i wore it tons. i always used to wear a t-shirt under this thats how damn warm it was. except when skiing--- i paid $120 for it new
the yellow and black one is for rock climbing and back country skiing---steep tech is only reasonably warm, i always had to wear a sweater underneath. its got 8 pockets though, and 5 vents for overheating.---i paid $400 for it new, but its a medium so only fits short men and chicks. the black part is faded a little that was only from washing it.
the bomber jacket is warm as hell too but you have to wear a scarf because you cant cover up your neck. i always wore a t-shirt unerneath this jacket. the biggest problem with this jacket is you can only dry clean it, and everyone tries to steal it. i waterproofed it not from rain but snow. i would only wear this jacket in the winter. its way to damn warm to wear in any other weather. i paid $275 for it new, and i only wore it like 6 times. like i said it looks cool but dry cleaning a leather jacket costs $20 bucks
in wisconsin we have a north face outlet up in oshkosh, so i went up and bought two more. i paid $75 bucks each for 700 down fill north face jackets in the size i need durning the summer. so if your paying $25 bucks in china for imitations, you need a find a outlet----there all over the usa. that extra $50 bucks will keep you warmer than you have ever been durning the winter. i will only wear north face jackets for winter and skiing there honestly that toasty warm.
by the way i have pictues of them, but i have no idea how to post them here.
