puffy canada goose jakker with the iconic logo is from Canada Goose, a canada goose parka that has been manufacturing its down-filled canada goose coat in Toronto since 1946. The company sold more than 250,000 jackets worldwide last year, and judging by the growing number of these canada goose outlet seen on our city streets, it looks like the unofficial uniform for winter in Toronto.
I see so many of those badges, says Donnell Enns, owner of http://www.bestparkas.com/Wholesale-mens-yorkville-parka_c1272"canada goose yorkville parka boutique Uncle Otis, where the canada goose down jackets sold out this winter and had to be reordered several times. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this phenomenon.
At the Queen St. W. boutique Due West, it's the same extraordinary story. Sales associate Anthony Iammarino says that in the five years since stocking canada goose expedition, the store has sold more coats this winter than any other year.
These coats retail from $350 to $885 or more for special canadian goose jackets. So, why are they so popular?
It's the warmest canada goose trillium parka in the world, says Dani Reiss, president and CEO of Canada Goose and the third generation of this family-owned company.
What puts canada goose retailers in an elite league may be a technical marvel developed by the company. But asking Reiss to divulge it is like asking how you get the caramel in the Caramilk bar.
We have our own proprietary blend of down – all canadian goose. It's a combination of the canada goose down, the kind of down, the blend of down, the fabrics that work together with the down, the properties of the fabric – there is a lot of technology behind it.
There has been no mass marketing campaign to explain the explosion of these canada goose coats. Reiss cites the company's reputation and word-of-mouth. One canada goose expedition jacket slogan is, Ask anyone who knows.
So that's what we did canada goose jakker, at last weekend's Interior Design Show at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
It's beautiful in the functional sense and warm as hell, says Alex Gardner, who was wearing the Japanese-style canada goose jackets he bought from Uncle Otis.
Best money I've spent, says Maria Raco about the bomber-style canada goose jacket she wears every day.
The brand's popularity won't fade, Enns says. There is no competition with that price point, functionality and with that quality.
