5 Canada Goose Jackets to Brave the Season In
Find the right outerwear you need for everything from transitional weather trekking all the way to hardcore arctic exploring
In tough conditions, outerwear is our last line of defense. You can layer all you like but if your jacket is lacking, you never stood a chance to start—and Canada Goose offers some of the best outerwear in the game.
The Toronto-native label got its start specializing in woolen vests, raincoats, and even snowmobile suits in the 1950’s—today, Canada Goose is the global face of performance luxury attire. Weather-conquering reputation aside, the brand is also known for its vast selection of products; there’s a garment to handle any scenario mother nature will throw at you.
Rest assured, we’ve put together a rundown on five Canada Goose jackets to get you through this fall and winter—and each one after that. From the Garson vest to the Crofton puffer jacket to the heavy-duty Chateau parka, read on to find the exact outerwear piece you need.
Garson Down Vest
We’ll start with the lightest of the pack and work our way up. The Garson is a down-filled puffer vest suited for spending the mildest days in comfort; rated at TEI1 (Thermal Experience Index), it’s optimal for temperatures from 5°C down to –5°C. It’s durable, water-repellent, and effortlessly stylish; if you could only have one vest in your collection, the Garson is all you will ever need.
Crofton Down Jacket
If sleeveless isn’t your thing, the Canada Goose Crofton jacket might be. Ideal as a layer under heavier coats or as a shell for blustery days, this will work wonders while you’re building an outerwear wardrobe. Canada Goose’s Feather-Light Ripstop fabric ties this weightless puffer together with its lustrous finish and sheer toughness—with the Crofton, you’ll be shining through light rain and wind. Plus, this jacket packs into its own pocket, making it something you can truly bring any
Paradigm Chilliwack Bomber
This heritage style is synonymous with Canada Goose and was created as a homage to post-war bush pilots working in the harsh Canadian north. Suitable down to –15°C, this is everything you could ask for in a winter jacket. The Paradigm version of the Chilliwack bomber is righteously crafted from the brand’s Recycled Organic Arctic Tech® fabric; a sustainable update to a polyester- and cotton-blend designed to face the world’s most grueling conditions. Your Canada Goose bomber will even patinate over time, building character the more you wear it. This classic style is finished with a ribbed-knit cuff and hem, making for a faultless fit to fight the elements in.
Wyndham Down Parka
The Wyndham is a sleeker alternative to your traditional winter parka and is lauded as one of Canada Goose’s most-loved styles. If you spend most—if not all—of your time in the city, you can surely appreciate outerwear that benefits your urban lifestyle; the Wyndham is fitted slim and cut in a hip-length, offering plenty of mobility as you make your way around town. And not to worry; it’s TEI-rated for the lowest temperatures on this list.
Chateau Down Parka
The Chateau is perhaps the most essential winter parka Canada Goose has to offer. Built for unparalleled cold-weather defense, the TEI4 rating is recommended for temperatures down to –25°C—nothing to scoff at. The Chateau is complete with military-style plackets and a down-filled hood to keep out the bitter weather and is fitted close to the body and cut in a mid-thigh length. It also features the label’s signature shoulder straps, perfect for giving you a thermal break while hiking or strolling around indoors.
