Canada Goose manufactures a wide range of jackets, vests, hats, gloves and other cold-weather apparel designed for extreme cold-weather conditions. Canada Goose fills all of its coats with a blend of goose or duck down, as well as some Hutterite down to ensure warmth. Some Canada Goose jackets also utilize coyote fur on the hoods. The jackets are known to be highly coveted garments and are only sold at select high-end retailers.
The garments have been popular in Scandinavia since 1998, and became popular in Canada in about 2008. Many celebrities have been seen wearing the jackets, though the company does not pay them. These celebrities include Drake, Matt Damon, Hilary Duff, Hayden Christiensen and Maggie Gyllenhaal. In addition, the jackets have appeared in some Hollywood movies, with actor Nicolas Cage (in National Treasure) and actresses Jessica Alba (in Good Luck Chuck) and Kate Beckinsale (in Whiteout) wearing the jackets. In the movie The Day After Tomorrow, which chronicles the Earth entering a modern-day ice age, Canada Goose jackets are worn by research scientists representing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The Expedition Parka™ is also standard issue for participants in the United States Antarctic Program.

“Good is a product of the ethical and spiritual artistry of individuals; it cannot be mass-produced.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“The end product of child raising is not only the child but the parents, who get to go through each stage of human development from the other side, and get to relive the experiences that shaped them, and get to rethink everything their parents taught them. The get, in effect, to reraise themselves and become their own person.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
