Canada Goose is a brand that's well-known for its cold weather outerwear and it released a coat for women called the 'Ockley' that boasts a lightweight style and an innovative new fabric dubbed Feather-Light UL.
The Ockley parka sets itself apart with a fur-free design and duck down filling sourced from North America. The new fabric used in the design helps to keep wearers warm without a bulky silhouette and is actually designed to breathe, which prevents overheating and sweating.
Notably, the new Canada Goose is lightweight and thin, yet the coat for women generates such warmth that it can be comfortably used in temperatures as low as 5°F, which makes it ideal for outdoor adventuring and life in the city alike.
