Alaana Tatty is one of this year's designers, and is also the founder of a parka making school at her local community centre in Rankin Inlet, Nunavet. On designing for Canada Goose, she says, "Knowing someone out there, around the world, will own one of my parkas makes me nervous - and excited. I think I'll feel so proud." For Olivia Tagalik, also from Nunavet, the design needed to be practical for the winters here in the North.
Super tempted for a jacket myself! However, one thing I would say, is that it is extremely warm. I know it sounds crazy, but it's warmer than any other coat you have probably ever had (including ski jackets) as it is made for extreme weather conditions.

Upon the beginning of Parka Season here in Chicago, I could not help but notice the disproportionate amount of Canada Goose parkas on the quad. Now, I understand that the University of Chicago as a whole has a relatively affluent student body - to put it modestly - but I am continually shocked by the amount of students casually wearing 800 - 1400 jackets. And to be clear, I am theoretically guilty of this very offense; if I could afford a Canada Goose jacket, you bet I would wear it the first day I feel a cool breeze.
