I would get it for the warmth, not the appendage measuring contest.

*After thinking about it, it’s shocking how many people here think the only value of a product is the brand and not the actual product.

    You’d be destroying half of its value. If you want a warm coat buy one without the label on it in the first place and save a shit ton of money

      Per my text box:

      Value is in the warmth, not the look at me badge.

          Canada Goose is the warmest, high quality, lifetime warranty, and made in Canada. That’s the value. Do you think the antarctic program picked Canada Goose because of brand imaging? No. Because they are the best parkas. Didn’t think I would have had to post to unpopular opinion.

            Antarctic program probably chose Canada Goose because they gave a special discount in exchange for brand recognition.

              Oh yea, decades before they started trying to sell to anything other than hardcore cold weather people. /s
