Overview

Canada Goose was founded in Toronto, Canada, in 1957 by Sam Tick (then Metro Sportswear). With functionality shaped by the demands of extreme cold at its core, the brand offers outerwear centered on down parkas, as well as rainwear, knitwear, accessories, and footwear. It is committed to manufacturing its core products in Canada and states its purpose as “keep the planet cold and the people on it warm.”

It operates as seasonal capsules under creative director Haider Ackermann, who was appointed in 2024, and proposes apparel and accessories that place fashion more prominently while centering craftsmanship and functionality based on the brand’s archives. Running alongside the regular Canada Goose mainline, it is positioned as a “new entry point” with a separate logo.
