Hey,
I'm looking for a nice jacket to take with me to Japan.
Under $100 would be nice, but I don't mind spending more for a nice jacket.
What stores are the best for jackets?
Thanks
Nice Jackets for Reasonable Prices

Try Asos.
Also try uniqlo in Japan.
You could try your luck at your local TK Maxx.
They have a range of decent (and awful) clothing at reduced prices.
I picked up one from amazon. Just waiting for it to be delivered.

Uniqlo Ultra Light Down Jacket. It even folds into a pillow, perfect for those smooth Japanese train rides.
That's a pretty good price, I think it was 6,000 yen + tax in Japan
Buy from a Uniqlo store in Japan - cheaper than Uniqlo in Australia.
Best jacket I ever bought was a Kathmandu one with ngx. And one from Zara.
Kathmandu is amazing, everything proof, great for travel, constant compliments, but amazingly expensive too.
$$$
That's pretty much the only reason I never go into Myers or Kathmandu, even when there is a sale on.
That said, I've been using a windproof outer shell jacket from Kathmandu that I purchased in 2004.
It has endured some pretty rubbish weather and 14 years later, it just got me through a very chilly stint European stint in February this year.
Aldi had a 3-in-1 jacket (rain jacket and polar fleece which can zip together) for $60 in their camping sale which started last saturday, so may still have some stock. I don't have one so not able to comment on the quality.
Nice Jacket for your budget. :)
