I don't think I've ever had a coat that has held up as well as this has. The size down was so much better, and while it's a little tight around the hips, it just looks better! It was truly the jacket of my dreams.

I don't currently own a full - length down parka though I used to, so have been borrowing the "Mystique Parka" designed to be mid - calf length from my mom, who has it in two colors. The style in size XXS measures 48" inches in overall length, and is truly full - Canada Goose Vests length on 5'2" me, falling a mere 6 or so inches above the ground with my trusty Sorel Caribou Boots on wear with Smartwool socks for maximum warmth. You don't want to wear this coat during an actual snowstorm, as the bottom will be soaked.

This exceptional, down - filled vest is the ultimate layering piece that can be worn across all seasons. A classic, and versatile vest that is a well - insulated layer. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this item will www.canadagoosesaler.com support research by the Polar Bears International organization and the preservation of polar bear habitats.

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.
