Canada Goose Outlet Makes Spring Apparel? Yeah, We Were Surprised Too
If you're familiar with Canada Goose, it's probably due to the brand's parkas, which can be seen on the shoulders of celebrities, news anchors and practically half the population of any Northeastern city. But, don't write the heritage brand off as "just a winter clothing company." With its new spring / summer 2022 collection, "Live in the Open," Canada Goose proves its apparel can be worn year-round — in the right conditions.
The brand's newest collection centers around lightweight comfort and transitional weather, as evidenced by the variety of apparel options, including a cozy down vest and an expansion of the brand's footwear, which was launched late last year. Below are three of our favorites picks from the season's offerings.
Designed for the crisp and cool evenings of spring, the Crofton Down Hoody is made with recycled ripstop, and is wind-resistant, water repellant and ultra lightweight. The midlayer works nicely under a rain jacket, or on its own, and features details like removable interior backpack straps for on-the-go carry, the ability to be packed into its front left pocket and 750 white duck down for supreme coziness. Like all of Canada Goose’s core products, the Crofton is made in Canada.
I wore the jacket during a trip to Joshua Tree, and found that it insulated me nicely from the winds that picked up in the evening, al fresco dinners and the chilly nights spent stargazing outdoors. If you run cold and think you'll need to layer, however, consider sizing up for a roomier fit.
On my desert trip, the vest version of the Crofton was my go-to choice for layering on days when the weather was finicky — it features the same down, weather resistance and packability as the Hoody, but is more suited to travel days, casual hikes or layered on top of a sweater for evening hangs. The Crofton Down Vest sits at the lowest end of the brand's proprietary Thermal Experience Index, so don't wear it on any winter expeditions.
I wore the vest rock climbing and scrambling on the boulders in Joshua Tree National Park, and found myself taking the jacket off for fear of ripping it on abrasive boulders. Canada Goose's pieces are certainly an investment, so consider your activity before wearing.
Brand-new for spring 22, the Crofton Puffer Boot is an insulated, futuristic-looking slip-on boot that zips up the front for easy wearing. While it's not going to be the most technical boot in your lineup (and I certainly wouldn't recommend taking it for a hike) the Crofton Puffer is great for travel, chilly mornings at home and for wearing around camp after the day's adventures. The boot's insulated upper is packable and crushable, so I could stuff it in my bag without worry. Available in three colorways, it's the ideal casual boot for spring and summer.
If you're a half-size like me, size down rather than up — the boot is roomy. And consider wearing thick socks; the strap that runs down the back of the heel can be a little irritating.
Canada Goose's spring collection is also available in women's styles as well.
