Q7: Are your products of good quality and brand new?

A: All the products are with good quality and they are brand new. Not second hand ones. The shoes will come with authentic packing.

Actually it's not. But I sent them a message last night about it.




It maybe just the label people care about but I hate people that buy counterfeit clothing and claim its the real thing.

The other problem with counterfeit goose down jackets is a matter of health and safety. As outlined on their website:


Like many best-in-class products, Canada Goose parkas are copied by counterfeiters who produce non-functional versions of the real thing. This practice is not only illegal, but also dangerous. After analyzing the content of many counterfeit jackets, we now know that in the place of the sanitized, Canadian down that is used by Canada Goose, you will find feather mulch, coated in bacteria, fungus and mildew, a significant health risks. With no real down in a counterfeit jacket, the chances of freezing to death in extreme climate becomes a real possibility.

If your gonna spend $400 on a FAKE jacket, you are wasting your money!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go buy a GOOD Northface or Eddie Bauer or Columbia for less than that. OMG!!!! To have that little patch on your shoulder and be a shooter is definately NOT WORTH IT.

any of those can be had for $200~, or half the price of cg with the right sale :thumbsup

but it doesn't matter since it gets so cold in the gta (sometimes it drops down to -20) you'll freeze to death if you don't have a cg parka.

When items of interest are not on sale, make your own sale. Look around the usual online sources (rfd/kijiji/craigslist/tm3) for people unloading giftcards at 10-15% off. Of course you need to exercise caution and discretion but if done correctly, the savings add up :)

Having had north face and Colombia, and wearing a Canada goose for a short time ( borrowed a friends) if I put on both Colombia and northface coats at the same time it may equal the warmth of a Canada goose. Without the sweat.

No point buying a fake one that don't even keep you warm. I'm sure they are lots of jacket in the 200-300 range that will keep you warm just like the goose

I understand if you work outdoors or take public transit daily, or just out side for extended periods of time on a daily basis - I don't see how ppl can drop $400+ on a winter coat.

I know 4 people with authentic CG jackets. Never are they actually outside other than when they run from their car to the mall/office/house doors.

The cost of being a hipster, I guess

And less weight too. If you wonder why CG parkas as heavy is that they use duck down not goose down. Goose feathers are larger than duck and therefore more duck down is needed to give u the warmth of a goose filled jacket. That's why companies such as North Face, Arcteryx use goose. Heavier does not necessarily mean warmer.

worth every dollar spent.... youre gonna spend 200 on a quality winter jacket anyways, for an extra 250 you get CGs lifetime wty on stuffing and ripping... if you even get 4years out of it worth every penny.

you cant compete wiith a jacket so light and warm enough to wear a tshirt underneath in pretty cold temps. I even take my goose snowboarding sometimes and its seen wear, holds up like a beast.

+1 Most people don't need such a jacket. Given the age group of most people who wear these jackets 17-25, I find it questionable when people try to justify (trend?) it as an investment.

Anyways, just to stir the pot... what about Nobis?

12-04-2011, 07:18 PM
The way I see it is that I spent the money on a CG jacket cause I wanted a coat that was great quality and that I would have for myself for years to come. I'm too old to keep buying the next big trend. Truth be told my wife & I bought ours before it became the must have fashion accessory. My theory was buy one good coat that will last, instead of buying one every two to three years. Canada Goose is very pricy, NorthFace is more then sufficient to keep you warm in the city, & is good quality with out breaking the bank. Just my :.02

I understand those that buy it, wear it, keep it, and use it religiously for years.

It's the "oooh...everyone has one - I need one - mommy/daddy can you buy me one" attitude that I see ridiculous.

For instance - My 12 year old nephew wants a black berry for X-Mas (because of the same mentality) His grandmother is buying one for him so "he doesn't feel left out". So I told her my 5 year old daughter wants an iPhone 4S

You should tell your 12 year old nephew that RIM is a sell right now and that he should know better before getting a blackberry. :pop

That must be a peta video.

( I don't use capitals for organizations I can stand. )

What that video doesn't tell you is the cyotes are over populated in east coast Canada and cause detrimental damage to the other wildlife. No it does not excuse the way these animals are being killed BUT these traps are not placed to catch these animals on hunting property ( private property yes) on legitimate hunting property there is no way these traps could be affective.
Cyotes are being killed in large numbers on the east cost to start with( with reason) why not use the fur rather then burn the entire carcass.

I just wanted to say my point, I hope people excuse my thoughts on all this as well as Eco terrorist organizations, if someone would like to argue with me in any kind of fashion I urge you to do so over pm and not spam this thread. MPS is
Allowed to have his or her beliefs ( sorry I don't know if your a guy or a girl. ) and I do not dispute them. You can't dispute beliefs but everyone( including me and MPS are entitled to their own.

If anyone has a problem with my post please feel free to contact a mod and have it looked at and deleted.

Thank you.

Edit***
I am an animal lover and usually against fur. Personally I would remove the fur from these jackets before wearing one.

Edit 2***
I have my personal reasons for disliking peta. Again if you would like to know my reasons, pm me.
