• Warmth level: Fundamental warmth
• Sizes: XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “I was looking for a trim urban jacket, with some warmth. I am 5’ 10” 135 lbs. I own several light puffers, but most are boxy. I checked all the major medium/high end brands. The price point and quality/fit for this CG jacket was perfect. This jacket fits like a glove. The stretch panels are key.” – Canada Goose Customer

The Lawrence Puffer, which clocks in at a measurement of “fundamental warmth,” meaning that it can withstand temperatures of less than 20 degrees celsius. Featuring a quilted body, the jacket boasts a slim fit complete with a longer back hem that’s topped off with an adjustable down-filled hood. While not a “long” jacket per se, the Lawrence is one of CG’s longer offerings as it sits at the mid-thigh area, which itself accompanied by a longer hem in the back that per the brand is built-in for added protection.

Adding to that protection are the tricot chin guards which provides an added softness and comfort to the neck and chin area of the coat. Additional features like the two exterior fleece-lined pockets (which you can stuff your hands into or use for storage) and ribbed cuffs also serve with giving you a functional jacket that will keep more than warm in cold temps.

• Pros: Water repellent, wind-resistant, durable, offers multiple colors, is versatile
• Cons: Could run too big/loose according to some buyers
• Warmth level: Enduring warmth
• Sizes: 2XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “This Langford is my 4th Canada Goose jacket. I have Banff, Bomber, PBI Lodge Hoody. Banff doesn’t cover my neck well in a snowy day, Bomber doesn’t cover my hip/thigh, Lodge Hoody is great for normal winter but not for extreme cold & snow storm. Now finally I got the Langford which is long enough to cover my hip/thigh, the non-removable hood design allows the zipper to go all the way up to cover my neck, mouth and nose during snow storm, the fur allows extra wind/snow protection (stylish too), the large lower pockets with Velcro allow me to safely store my two cell phones, wallet, car & home keys, the upper pockets keep my hands warm while walking or waiting.” – Canada Goose Customer

The Langford Parka is a jacket built for prime endurance at it clocks in on Canada Goose’s “enduring level” on the warmth meter. Seeing as though CG jackets made specifically at this level were inspired by the Arctic, it’s safe to say that you’ll be kept warm and cozy at pretty much all cold weather temps. That means, should you happen to reside in a place like Salt Lake City where the temperature can easily reach the negatives and you’re surrounded by mountains, you won’t have to worry about turning into a frost statue. The jacket is made with removable fur ruff, and boasts plenty of helpful features including a 2-way adjustable down-filled hood for extra warmth, four outside pockets (two of which are fleece-lined) and an interior drawcord on the waist line.

• Pros: Able to withstand light to medium activity, has a two-way zipper, has an interior pocket, comes in multiple colors, is versatile
• Cons: Doesn’t keep you warm in extreme temps
• Warmth level: Lightweight warmth
• Sizes: XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “It is a great light weight down hoody! I am 5’7 150LB and XS fits quite well, I tried both XS and S, S size was way more loose around mid section plus slight longer arm and overall length. I wish XS has slightly more room in chest area but I don’t layer often so not that much of a problem. Please release this hoody in “Sepia” color.” – Canada Goose Customer

Since its release, customers have raved about the Crofton Jacket, praising its lightweight nature, versatility and comfort. “It protects from the wind very well. At a temperature of about 2 degrees celsius, a light jumper is sufficient in addition,” says one Canada Goose customer, while another adds: “Really happy with my Crofton Hoody, I love the really deep shiny blue colour (Atlantic Navy), which goes well with jeans. I wore it in the Wicklow Mountains near Dublin, Ireland when I drove up there and it was just right for a cool spring day. A couple of feathers have come through but were easy to pull back from the inside without leaving a mark.”

As you can see by the reviews, while not the type of jacket that’s going to keep you bundled up while skiing in negative degree weather, it does get the job done should you want to do an activity along the lines of hiking/hitting the trails when it’s cold.

• Pros: Functional, water-repellent, offers great durability, keeps you warm, has layering ability, easy to maneuver
• Cons: Doesn’t reach extreme warmth level
• Warmth level: Lightweight warmth
• Sizes: XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “A bit better looking in real life than here on photos. It is a delicate jacket for sure, but great for dry, cold weather (autumn or so – mind temperature recommendations). Sleeves are great for stoping wind, can be used as a layer under the hardshell or similar jacket to prevent rain.” – Canada Goose Reviewer

If you want a jacket that meets right in the middle between late fall and early winter, the HyBridge Lite Tech Hoody is your guy. The name says it all, so this isn’t the type of jacket you can expect to keep you warm should you happen to be caught in the middle of a blizzard, but it will definitely suffice for those cold early mornings when you need to shovel and warm up your car. The durable nature combined with standout features such as CG’s Thermal Mapping technology (which puts performance fabrics on different parts of the jacket to achieve more warmth, breathability, and movement), is what makes the HyBridge a top seller.

Should you need to wear at night, the jacket also has you covered with their double-stripe reflective detailing. Oh, and there are also two mesh-lined exterior pockets and two lower drop-in interior pockets for smaller storage.

• Pros: Protects against harsh and heavy rain, runs longer, has an adjustable hood, is durable, offers great comfort
• Cons: May run big according to some customers
• Warmth level: Lightweight warmth
• Sizes: XS – 2XL
• A Promising Review: “Of the numerous CG jackets I own, this one might be the coolest. It has a number of features that make you appreciate its functionality. Beyond the fact that it always keeps you dry and comfortable, this jacket just feels so stylish when you’re wearing it, which isn’t always the case with rain jackets.” – Canada Goose customer

Have you ever been caught in a massive rainstorm and kicked yourself for failing to own a reliable rain jacket despite having had similar unfortunate situations in the past? Now is the time to stop procrastinating and pick up that reliable rain jacket you’ve been needing for a hot minute. Canada Goose customers love this Killarney Jacket due to its functionality, breathability, and convenience. Not only does it keep you super stylish, you also won’t have to worry about being drenched when those icky winter and spring rainstorms come along.

• Pros: Comfortable, water-repellent, has good layering potential, keeps you warm
• Cons: Could run slightly large according to some buyers
• Warmth level: Lightweight warmth
• Sizes: 2XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “I wanted a quality gilet this winter I already own Canada Goose items so that was the first place I looked. The Carson gilet was exactly what I was looking for so I made the purchase of a Black gilet with the black badge. It looks great and is made to the very high standard of all Canada goose items.” – Canada Goose Reviewer

If you are absolutely opposed to buying anything labeled a coat/jacket, the Garson Vest Wool Jacket is one that has been long preferred by buyers. Boasting water-repellent capabilities and other cool specs like a suede tricot-lined chin guard, exterior fleece-lined hand-warmer pockets, and a flap over center front zipper that protects against storms, the Garson is a quality vest that checks all the boxes. “This vest is very nice quality with great attention to detail throughout. I really like the button clasp design and the Canada Goose logo detail that runs up the inner collar. I feel like this vest will hold up over time,” a longtime Canada Goose customer says. Priced at $795, the Garson comes in five different colors, with sizes ranging between a 2XS and a 3XL.

• Pros: Wind-resistant, water-repellent, functional, durable, flexible, easy to layer, has multiple pockets, offers rib-knit cuffs
• Cons: May run too big/loose for those that are smaller
• Warmth level: Extreme warmth
• Sizes: 2XS – 3XL
• A Promising Review: “I got this a few months ago, and it got put to the test this yr. I read one review saying they got cold in -47C, and I guess for some they may run colder than me, but I would say it holds up even at that temp. If you have seen the weather in Alberta lately, that has been my testing ground. Shoveling in -36C feeling like -45C with wind, and I’m dying unzipping the jacket for relief. And only a t shirt underneath at -47C and I felt fine. ” – Canada Goose Reviewer

If you are looking for a Canada Goose jacket that hits the “extreme” mark on the warmth meter, I present the Men’s Expedition Parka for all of your frigid temperature needs. Made to be able to withstand freezing weather temps to below 30 degrees celsius, this piece is cut with removable fur ruff, filled with 625 down and comes with an adjustable hood for added warmth. Warm and functional in its crafting and construction, I also appreciate the six exterior and two interior pockets, along with the rib-knit cuffs that help with giving you extra heat. Plus, it offers a structured fit that compliments your entire body.

• Pros: Lightweight, wind-resistant, water-repellent, breathable, relaxed fit, has a front and back mesh

If you are looking for a transitional jacket, the Faber Hoody Black Label is the route to go. Sitting at the lightweight mark on the warmth meter, it is propped up by a relaxed fit that has a front and back mesh vent for extra breathability and an adjustable hood with a hidden cord lock, making it perfect for keeping warm when the weather is cool/cold while still being breathable. Two different colorways (silverburch and black) accompany the Faber Hoody, as this one of the brand’s $600 options that are simple, effective, and get the job done.

The popular Paradigm Chilliwack Bomber is loved for its superior warmth and comfort, “Finally a winter jacket that is stylish and will keep me warm despite the soaring gas prices. Could wear this all day because it is so nice and warm and I’m really cold sensitive (like everything below 25 Celsius is torture for me). Now I can finally enjoy fall and winter without shivering all the time,” notes one buyer who recently made the splurge. Also adding to the overall quality of the jacket is the ripstop feature, which is made from 100% recycled nylon. I’ll always give bonus points for sustainable efforts.

You can definitely bundle up for the winter in this hoody, which is offered as a part of CG’s Black Label. The jacket is built to withstand climates that range from 0 degrees celsius to -15 degree celsius, which means it does a pretty darn good job at keeping you toasty when the weather isn’t.

• A Promising Review: “In terms of materials and craftsmanship, it is excellent. The seams are taped-seamed so no water will seep through. Ventilation is excellent, so you will get a lot of air moving and sweat out. Reflective taping is great at night. Super lightweight and can be folded and packed away into itself. The material itself is pretty wrinkle-free. I’ve folded and pack and unpacked several times and it hasn’t really wrinkled. I have shorter arms so i do need to fold the cuff to make it not look too sloppy.” – Canada Goose Reviewer

Cut with the brand’s Tri-Durance fabric which they say protects against downpours and strong winds, the Nanaimo Jacket is a great transitional piece that works well in the spring and fall. It includes helpful features such as mesh venting to help with airflow and breathability, and reflecting paneling on the back of the jacket that allows for people to see you at night. There’s also an adjustable hood should you want to use that in place of an umbrella, and the lightweight nature of the jacket makes it easy to pack should you want to travel with it.

• Pros: Lightweight, protects against strong winds, comes in multiple colors
• Cons: Sells out quickly in certain sizes

One of Canada Goose’s lighter options, the Rosedale jacket is inspired by traditional workwear, and available in a range of sizes (XS – 2XL). Constructed with a lightweight design, it comes in two different versatile hues and is made with recycled polyester blended together with organic cotton. Along with the waterproof element provided, you’ll also be kept cozy by the interior lining. Oh, and I definitely can’t forget about the tricot chin guard that eliminates the need for a scarf!
