25 Canada Goose Alternatives – Chic & Affordable
While I’m all about splurging on investment pieces, $900+ for a jacket is just not something I’m willing to spend.
Canada Goose Jackets really are amazing and if you think you’ll get a ton of use out of it, I can see why you’d want to make the investment.
However, if spending that much coin on a jacket isn’t in your budget or it’s just something you’re not willing to do, you’re in the right place!
Before we dive into this list of the best jackets like Canada Goose (but cheaper!) let’s go over what is so special about a Canada Goose jacket to begin with.
Canada Goose is a luxury brand that offers high-quality jackets that have taken the fashion world by storm.
Similar to Moose Knuckles, It’s not uncommon to see celebs sporting the brand such as Emma Stone and Daniel Craig.
While they offer many different styles with several different features, we’ll focus on the Lorette Water Resistant 625 Fill Down Power Parka.
All Canada Goose coats are extremely high quality and offer extreme weather protection.
This one in particular is lined with 625-fill-power down insulation, is water-resistant, and features a removable, extended hood trim, internal zip pockets, etc.
Although a Canada Goose coat may be outside of most people’s budgets, it’s easy to see why someone who lives in a freezing cold climate all year round would want to purchase one of these luxury parkas.
However, if you wouldn’t get THAT much use out of it, I can understand why you wouldn’t want to make the splurge.
So today, I’m rounding up 25 of the most stylish, warm, and affordable Canada Goose Alternatives in a much more budget-friendly price range.
Without further ado, let’s check out the list below!
