Product Description

Canada Goose takes pride in creating authentic gear to help real people living in extreme conditions battle the elements. Originally developed for scientists working in research facilities at McMurdo station in Antarctica, the Canada Goose Expedition parka allows its wearers to withstand the most frigid temperatures. Not only is it durable and well-insulated, with 625 fill power white duck down, but its iconic design also features a highly functional collection of external pockets, perfect for easy gear storage and hand-warming. When the wind really howls, the tunnel-shaped hood can be pulled tightly around the face, using an adjustable bracing wire, creating a sheltering pocket of air to keep the face warm.

The parka offers a relaxed fit that is designed for maximum comfort and ease of movement. Its mid-thigh length provides exceptional coverage and protection from the elements. The coyote fur ruff surrounding a two-way, adjustable tunnel hood with an adjustable bracing wire is made to reduce wind penetration by allowing you to adjust the size as conditions dictate. A draw-cord waist, a storm flap over the front zipper, and recessed, flexible, heavy-duty rib-knit cuffs help keep the snow and cold wind at bay. Other features include two upper chest pockets and two lower snow pockets, all secured with Velcro flaps, along with four fleece-lined upper and lower pockets with zippered closures.

Made of 85 percent polyester, 15 percent cotton, the Arctic-Tech shell weighs 190 grams per square meter (GSM) and sports a durable water repellent finish. The plain-weave nylon lining weighs 55 GSM and is also treated with a water repellent finish. The insulation is 625 fill power white duck down.

Product Care
When your down-filled parka requires cleaning, it is important that you take it to a dry cleaner and that you do not machine wash it. Machine washing your parka will void the warranty. If your parka has a removable fur option, remove the fur ruff before dry cleaning. If you have a small stain on your parka, another option is to spot-wash the parka with a bleach-free detergent and water.

Manufacturer's Warranty
All Canada Goose products are fully warranted against defects in materials and workmanship. If a product ever fails due to a manufacturing defect, the company will repair the product without charge or replace it at its option. This warranty does not include repairs due to accidents, improper care, negligence, or normal wear and tear. In such cases, Canada Goose will repair the item for a reasonable charge. This warranty is valid exclusively in the country of purchase through the original retailer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Things you might like to know, March 8, 2010

By 

Rick_Mooney (New England) - See all my reviews

Any picture which includes people in Antarctica will show you that these parkas are as plentiful as penguins so you don't need another "How warm it is" comment.

But I think you might like to be aware of some of the cool things about this parka that are not in the description.

There are side accessible zippered hand warmer pockets behind each of the 4 outside front pockets the surprise being that the breast pocket ones are divided into 2 compartments, the one closest to you is at a great height, size, and are fleece lined. The forward compartment is unlined.

The cuffs are recessed about 3 inches up into the sleeve making the fit between mitten cuff and parka sleeve a nice easy fit.

On one shoulder there is a pen/pencil pocket with a small black target/wear patch at the top I think so you can easier tell where to return the pen/pencil to. On the other shoulder is another small pocket w/Velcro.

Inside the parka there is a snow skirt and the sticky side of the Velcro attachment folds back on itself when not in use so that it doesn't stick to you and/or pick up all sorts of lint.

There is another good size open pocket below the snow skirt as well as an inside breast pocket that is zippered and fleece lined.

On the downside- It is a left handed zipper. First one I have ever had and it takes some getting used to.

Also I would think that a company called Canada Goose would use goose down. But given their stellar reputation I am not going to complain about them using duck down in this parka. They do not try and hide it. It is right there in the description.

The back of the absolutely gorgeous hood could use a Velcro tab so you could adjust how far forward the hood falls.

I love this thing. I hope you will to!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to the 1 star review by JP!, December 3, 2011

By 

Butters - See all my reviews

This review is from: Canada Goose Expedition Parka (Apparel)

Canada Goose doesn't sell products from its website,canada-goose.com, which is why JP's review is invalid and irrelevant. I buy from backcountry.com and bloomingdales.com. Don't let JP's review ruin your online purchase of a Canada Goose. Canada Goose products are superior and make me wonder why I ever purchased North Face products. Just be sure to double check that the online retailer is listed on Canada Goose's website. If the deal seems to good to be true, it probably isn't true. I just wanted anyone who was put off by JP's review know that a Canada Goose is worth the price. They offer great products, that are built to last.

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Canada Goose Expedition Parka (Apparel)

I got this parka just prior to starting University of Alaska in Anchorage some ten years ago. In all the time since then, I have yet to feel really cold while wearing it and, despite heavy use in the Chugatch mountain range and way up in Denali, even been to Point Barrow a few times which is as far north as you can go, it has yet to show any signs of wear and tear. This jacket is extremely warm, yet never feels large or bulky and with the thigh length it gives just a very solid warm feeling.

If anything this thing needs a heat warning! My basic rule is to not wear this parka unless it is at least 25F outside, any warmer and you are just asking to be baked. From 25F to 0F, a simple tee shirt and this parka, unzipped, is really all i need. Below 0 is where this coat really starts to come into it's own, all the way to -40 all I wear is a tee shirt, with sweatshirt, this parka zipped and I am left able to enjoy the winter. It is windproof and waterproof so laying down in the snow and making snow angles with the little kids is just plain fun.
