Besides the others mentioned here I’ve heard good things about Arctery’x and Triple F.A.T Goose. Both are pricier than TNF, Patagonia, etc but cheaper than Canada Goose
Pro
Triple fat is marketing hype. Go for arc teryx well worth it
Do yourself a favor and give Oros a consideration (https://www.orosapparel.com/collections/mens-2021)
Interesting / innovative company tackling cold weather with slim products (and stylish). The Orion parka is amazing!
I like these
I got a north face parka that is comparable to the goose at the 1/3 of the price. Def not as swaggy as the goose but honestly it seems over played to me
+1 for north face parka. Gets the job done and still looks good
Rising Star
Canada Goose is so overpriced and overrated. Patagonia, North Face, REI, LL Bean - so many great brands. I have the Downdrift from Patagonia and love it and love it in all winter long. (And all have local stores in Chicago)
Personally laugh every time I see someone with a Canada goose. Bad taste and tacky
I recommend Arctery’x, Columbia, or a Patagonia parka if it’s just for city use.
hey buddy, enjoy your… enjoy your jacket. if you DM me your address I’ll be happy to send you a few liters of freshly pressed olive oil from a 200 year old olive grove. just make sure not to spill it on your sick threads… might stain.
Canada Goose and Alteryx are definitely worth the price. You pay more upfront, but it will last you a lifetime. Plus they just look nicer. I’d rather pay more for these items and have one for life versus buying a new one every 3-5 years.
Lmao, I meant Arcteryx. You could tell what I’ve been doing all day.
Contrary to other comments here, I think Canada Goose is amazing and worth it, just read the reviews on the various styles. I splurged when I moved to Chicago and get so much use out of the coat for winter months. Just bought one for my SO for Christmas.
I agree that Canada Goose is totally worth the cost. Best jackets I’ve ever owned. Extremely high quality and unbelievably warm.

You're welcome.
+1 for Columbia
Columbia. The ones with the aluminum looking lining
This is the answer.
Space blanket me Columbia!
Canada Goose is asking to get mugged. Go with something like North Face or Patagonia.
I used to always buy expensive winter coats and this year I picked up a winter coat at Costco and it is amazing. Can't remember the brand. Hahaa!
Probably! lol
Got an LL Bean parka last year for $3-400 and it’s incredible
If you like the Canada Goose, just buy it. Definitely worth the investment given how good of a coat it is if you're living in Illinois. Given the utility and that it will last you years and years if you take care of it, it's worth the price. Needless to say, be careful wearing it in the city.
Got a Montcler as gift a few years ago and it's the warmest, best fitting, and most attractive winter coat I've ever had. It was expensive AF but I'm wearing it a ton and it's keeping me nice and toasty so I love it.
Pro
Canada Goose is overrated. I would go with a north face. If you’re going with something more formal to wear into the office. The standard Peacoat is always a winner
Check Freeds, online store in Canada for the Canada goose jacket. I think the conversion rate helps you save a bit.
Moosejaw parka is amazing! I have used it for two winters and it is very well productive!
once canada goose got rid of the fur lining, it basically became an overpriced piece of fabric.
darn hippies.
Columbia is great. Get the kind with the metallic looking lining. Cannot go wrong. I was walking outside in it last night with those crazy cold ass winds, couldn't feel a thing
Have had my Canada Goose parka for 10+ years and they are well worth the price (although they've gotten more expensive over the years).
