In cold-weather countries, winter coats are essential investment pieces that ensure warmth and although the average person isn't likely to purchase new outerwear season after season, mix-and-match hood trims offer an affordable way for individuals to explore their unique sense of style and effortlessly refresh their winter look. Canada Goose created the Hood Trim Collective, a limited-edition capsule of reinterpreted Canada Goose products and standalone hood trims, in collaboration with three up-and-coming designers.
These interchangeable accessories add interest to the brand's outerwear styles and help people customize their look. Canada Goose worked with Collina Strada, Thebe Magugu and Mira Mikati to create three diverse designs that vastly change the style of the parkas that they're attached to.
