About this blog
Livin' the green life isn't easy--especially when you're like me, Supriya Doshi, living in the city without a lot of money, space or time. But that doesn't mean it's impossible. Practically Green chronicles my adventures, trials and tribulations as I try to lead an eco-friendly existence in Chicago. And, hopefully you'll pick up a few tips and tricks along the way, too, that will green up your life without cramping your style.

That's what I call an eco-jacket

Thursday, November 6, 2008 -- 1:24 p.m.

Looking for an eco-friendly way to stay warm this winter? Then this jacket's for you!

Jacket

A friend of mine tipped me off to the Merrell Gatherer Jacket, which comes as just a shell. You decide what you want to stuff it with.

The jacket has zippers everywhere that allow you to put in various forms of insulation, depending on what you have around. It's perfect for camping, or lugging it around, when you don't want to be weighed down.

Plastic bags, leaves, old pillows, shredded paper and old shirts make perfect stuffings--and you'd be making one heck of a fashion statement.
