  I love all the talk about technology and then you see employees hitting the jacket bags with badminton rackets 😂

  So expensive that here in the U.K. thieves have been stealing them from people at knifepoint.

  I bought one of these -30 parkas in 1999 for 400$ and it's still in pristine condition. The parka was branded Eddie Bauer and manufactured by this company. I wore it almost every cold day in Canada and I still hang on to it.

  I bought my CG parka in 1995-96. Had to wait 2 months to get it shipped from Canada to Norway. Remember the day I put it on the first time. Still have my parka and use it whenever its cold enough for it :)

  I remember that my Dad had a Snow Goose eider down parka back in the ‘80s that he got from work when he travelled to northern Ontario. He wore it up until he passed away in 2019….now I have it. What a fantastic garment…still looks new.

  Let me summarize this video: There were no changes to cost of production/materials. They just simply charged them more. That's all. Saved you guys 20mins!

  Own one had it over 10 yrs it’s Canadian made version. We have terrible snow squalls off of Lake Huron and very cold polar vortex weather. <br>Fur is the only reason I don’t get frost bite on my face. By far the best piece of clothing I ever owned.

  See that everywhere here in winter NYC, along with Patagonia. Couldn&apos;t care less. Personally, I judge a person by talking to them, not by whatever they are wearing at the time.

  I can say as somebody who lived and worked in the James Bay of northern Canada that the resolute parka is the coat of the north. &nbsp;Go to the airport in Montreal in February, every resolute coat you see is somebody headed north, everybody who is not is headed south. &nbsp;Unfortunately, all their other coats are crap, cheaply made fashion coats. &nbsp;My resolute is 15 yrs old and has been worn for hundreds if not thousands of hours, covered in pike slime, Caribou blood and spruce sap and just keeps on being awesome. &nbsp;I&apos;ve been through three other of their urban models which fell apart within a few years but the resolute is a tank.

  My partner bought me one before he passed away and i remember how happy he was giving me this gift of love. &nbsp;He told me that I will be nice and warm waiting for the bus and that was his main goal of gifting me this Christmas gift. &nbsp;I sometimes wonder whenever I put it on that maybe he knew he would not be around to pick me up from work or from college. &nbsp;He was on a machine cleaning his blood as he had lost both of his kidneys so he wanted to make sure I was not cold. &nbsp;Whenever I now put it on, it brings tears to my eyes for I can still feel his love for me. &nbsp;Putting on my Canada Goose coat brings back a flood of my memories of him and my loss even after year since his passing in 2012. &nbsp;Thank you my love for your heart felt love in gifting me one of these coats. &nbsp;Your love and kindness for me lives on….. &nbsp;I will always cherish this coat….

  Jackets within 500-600 are enough to buy a jacket that functions and lasts for decades. Anything that we pay above this is for the brand name.
