Brand history
Canada Goose is one of the world's leading luxury apparel manufacturers based in a small warehouse in Toronto. In 1957, Sam Thicke founded Metro Sportswear, which specialized in wool vests, raincoats and snowmobile suits.

In the 1970s, a new stage in the development of Metro Sportswear begins. Sam Thicke's son-in-law brings innovative production ideas and also founds the Snow Goose brand, which would later be renamed Canada Goose.

In the 1980s, the founders of Canada Goose, inspired by the harsh conditions of the coldest place on earth, developed the Expedition Parka clothing line. This clothing was designed for the scientists of the expedition to the station in Antarctica.

In 1997, Sam Thicke's grandson Danny Reiss joined the family business, and in 2001 he became President of Canada Goose. Danny is working on the development of the company and strives to maintain the motto of clothing production: "Made in Canada".

In 2000, the company partnered with a dog sled dog competition to develop equipment for the dog sleds.
In 2007, Canada Goose joined Polar Bears International (PBI), which supports the conservation of Canada's polar bear population. The company has released a special PBI collection of apparel and is donating $ 25 per unit to support the conservation of polar bear habitats.

In 2010, Canada Goose bought a manufacturing facility in Winnipeg to meet the growing demand for products and further reinforced its commitment to the belief that all products should be manufactured exclusively in Canada.

In 2011, Canada Goose continues to innovate in manufacturing with lighter materials that are suitable for a wide variety of climates and activities. This, for example, the HyBridge Lite jacket, which was voted "Best Backcountry Jacket" in the prestigious Gear of the Year nomination by Outside magazine.

Natural fur is used for tailoring, but the production of products is based on the responsible use of animal products.

Exclusively coyote fur is used for the external decoration of the products. The fillers for winter jackets and vests are the fluff of northern birds.
The company implements comprehensive material traceability programs (Goose Down Transparency Standard and Canada Transparency Standard) to ensure bird fluff and fur is sourced from creatures that have not been mistreated. Canada Transparency Standard confirms that the company never buys materials from fur farms or uses fur from endangered animals.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2017/06/canada-goose-47.jpg)
Fur raw materials are purchased from licensed North American hunters, strictly regulated by state, provincial and federal standards. All fur used in new Canada Goose products includes country of origin labeling (as of April 2017).

For sewing clothes, high-quality accessories are used from manufacturers with the same long history and impeccable reputation as that of Yoshida Kogyosho. Since 1934, this company began its work on the production of fasteners. Now it is a world famous company that produces zippers, buttons and other accessories with recognizable letters on their products (YKK).

How to distinguish a fake from an original?
Quality control is carried out from the farms of the down producers to the final stage of production. The worldwide popularity and quality of Canada Goose clothing explains the growing interest in counterfeiting these products.

In order not to get a substandard item or a fake, you should pay attention to the following details:
- Fur on the hood - coyote fur is used in natural colors, uniform length and density, soft to the touch. The use of fur from other animals for original brand products is unacceptable.
- The composition of the material is polyester and cotton (in a ratio of 85% to 15%). The fabric is dense, with textured weave of threads, soft and pleasant to the touch, does not wrinkle.
- Cut and decorative elements. Cutting out clothes is quite simple, without unnecessary details and seams. The most common Canada Goose winter jackets, mid-thigh length, are devoid of excessive volume. All clothes are designed for everyday wear, casual style and fit perfectly to the figure.
- Emblem. On the original, the Canada Goose badge is sewn onto the sleeve with neat uniform stitching and the obligatory maple leaf graphic.
- Inner side of the product. Mandatory presence of the company logo on the sewn triangular cut, a loop-hanger indicating the model of the product, sewn-in side tags with the company's hologram and recommendations for caring for the product, as well as the composition of the filler.
- Correctness of spelling - all names on tags, corporate logos must be of high quality and easy to read, without typos.
- Price range - the cost of original brand products is in a high price range, the average price of a winter jacket is $ 750-1000.

Buyers especially appreciate the functionality of the coyote fur trimmed hood. The original product has a metal structure that allows you to simulate the shape of the hood and more reliably protect your face and neck from bad weather.
There are numerous reviews about the functionality of the vests. They can be used both in the slightest cold weather and in severe frosts. These clothes are worn over ski suits or lightweight jackets.

Buyers believe that the choice of children's clothing from this brand is also justified.Children grow up quickly, and therefore the designers have provided special elements that are on zippers. They allow you to lengthen the product as the baby grows. That is why the purchase costs are fully justified by more than one season of socks.

Among the disadvantages of Canada Goose clothing, one can note a large number of fakes and a high price. Counterfeits are sold everywhere, they are made in China. Upon closer examination, they can be clearly distinguished from the original. Of course, if you really want to buy an original product, you shouldn't save.
