Canada Goose

And the branta collection is even more expensive. Has anyone seen those in the wild?

What are some thoughts on the Branta collection? http://www.canada-goose.com/collections/travel/

^ the branta "italian luxury" collection is their collaboration with loro piana. i have the como parka from two seasons ago. it actually comes without a cg patch. it had a metal emblem on the front placket instead. yes, it cost a heck of a lot more than other cg coats, but i wanted something dressier and the wool exterior makes it look more like a dress coat than a ski jacket. the storm system treatment actually makes the wool waterproof too so when i wear it during colder rainy days, the water beads right off. needless to say, i highly recommend it to anyone. i know harry rosen stocks those each season. i've also seen them at boutiques like toronto's uncle otis. i think my mother purchased a travel collection coat for my father at sporting life, if you want a live look at those. those aren't wool, but the mono-coloured patch doesn't stand out as much as the white and red ones.

I wanted to try Branta but then I was worried if CG's signature "Get wet, get hot" character would be there in a $1X00 jacket.

I bought a CMFR Gormley last week. Too damn cold in AB already and it was on sale.

-59 Windchill. Jacket holds up.

Are the sizing universal across all jackets from Canda Goose?

My chest is 34, waist is 29 and arms are 32 (measuring from the neck).

I'm looking at this jacket, but I'm thinking the S is not small enough for me and would probably need an XS.

This jacket has an XS, but would prefer the above jacket.

Since XS doesn't exist for the first jacket, does it mean the S is equivalent to the XS in link 2?

Unfortunately not. Depending on the jacket they fit quite differently.

The Borden fits TTS from memory, can't remember about the Langford.

Based on my body size, do you think I can fit the Borden?

Even XS might be roomy for you. IIRC Japanese CG has XS model which converts to XXS Canada size.

Are you sure?

I'm basically an XS in mail brands such as in Jcrew, Uniqlo and BR. Comparing these brands to GC, even an XS is still roomy for me? Dang.....

Start eating and get a gym membership, problem solved.

Not solved because my other clothes will not fit....and I would think that is way more expensive to adjust all my other clothing. CG doesn't cater to 29inch waist and 34 inch chest dudes?

Try youth.

 

[endless402]

you could be ok in XS for slim fit models only.

Jumped on board the **** aesthetics/**** popular **** and bought a Chateau. I have a Moncler and Veliance, both of which weren't keeping me warm enough. I think it's total pleb wear, but it's keeping me warm, so I love it.
