I’ve had it for 5 years and it’s still in perfect condition. I also love my Soia&Kyo and Pajar down coats but Canada Goose beats then out any super chilly day hands down. I had doubts buying it but seems like it’s good enough for someone like me who can’t afford goose coat Canada Goose, Nobis, Pajar, Moose Knuckles or similar. I have been living in Toronto for a year and half but am a native of a tropical country. My body has a very low tolerance for cold temperatures. The lifetime guarantee was a definite selling feature.
The Canada Goose vest has also become a pillar of high-end style, like the Men’s Crofton Vest or the Women’s Freestyle Vest. Through it all, the company maintains a Made in Canada commitment, manufacturing apparel in Toronto and Winnipeg. They’re also partners of Polar Bears International, and advocates for ethical down and fur.
We can care about more than one issue at a time. There are PLENTY of jackets made without cruelty made in Canada, US, UK etc. I’m amazed at how every other person is wearing s CG coat. It reminds me of the young girls obsession with those dreadful looking UGG boots. When you ski the highest peaks of Colorado and the ski patrol dudes tell you “nice jacket”, you know you’ve made the right choice.
Plus, I really did not want to spend over $900 on a coat, and I did not want to buy one with fur on the hood. What’s best for you might be different from what was best for me. The Canada Goose women’s collection has been handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail and precision to withstand the most extreme weather conditions with timeless elegance. In our selection of parkas are the Shelburne and Gabriola models in black and khaki that will protect you from the cold in the freezing urban jungle or the polar wilderness. Ultra-light and versatile hooded jackets will accompany you in your outdoor activities and Berkley jackets cut from stretchy Tri-Durance fabric will shelter you from the rain.
In addition to trying on jackets from other brands before making my decision, I tried on a variety of other Canada Goose coats, too. While I ended up deeming the Gabriola my favorite, they were all insanely warm and high quality. The Gabriola was just the best fit for me.
With a stand collar for added warmth and a down and feather fill insulation, you’re sure to stay cozy even in the coldest temps. This parka also features backpack straps that allow the coat to be worn on the back when not being worn as a coat. This eliminates the need to carry it when shopping, etc. which is one of the most popular features of Canada Goose coats.
Is it because you didn’t have time to accept my comment? My comment was polite, did not insult or use offensive language. It was a testimonial on topic, based on real life experience and hard facts. How and why would you block my comment then?
Canadian outerwear breathes lightness, performance and comfort. These, the brand’s classic winter parkas for men and women, have a simple silhouette and come in every muted color you could want . I first spotted the coats on a couple while waiting at the vet; the duo arrived on bikes and the jackets’ above-knee length makes them easy to pedal in, I’d imagine. The woman’s version has goose coat a borrowed-from-the-boys feel and looks nearly identical save for its shaping around the waist. The parkas — which the brand says will keep you warm in temps as low as minus 13 degrees Fahrenheit — have synthetic insulation that holds up well to frequent washing. In September, the luxury outerwear company Canada Goose opened its fourth store in the US, in Short Hills, New Jersey.
Unfortunately there isnt a comparable option. If you think Northface, Patagonia, and Fjal Raven equivilants are nearly as warm or well made – you are mistaken. I cant even wear my Patagonia Tres below 35 degrees without layering.
