Canada Goose Women's Trillium Parka

 (6 customer reviews)

There are a few disappointing issues with this jacket:
1)I misread the label...the lining is "100% downproof" but the actual insulation is only 60% down/40% feather. For this price, and this maker, I expected a 100% down jacket.

2)The collar has absolutely no insulation what so ever (just a stiff,flat collar) and stands away from the neck. When the hood is up, and pulled tightly, it does nothing to pull the collar in, but pulls whole jacket up. Less expensive and more stylish coats have far superior wind proofed collar and hood designs. When the collar is zipped up all the way it bumps up against the chin. You must wear a gator or scarf to keep your neck warm, even if the weather isn't that cold. I had to add two additional pieces of velcro to the hood to make it fit better. Again, I expect more from this company.

3) The two-way #10 YKK zipper is very difficult to allign at the bottom...It takes a few tries to get it to slide. My husband's old LL Bean parka...Read more

Tl; dr: The coat looks really nice, has nice details, and is very, very warm, despite a slightly awkward fit.

First the good:
This is by far the warmest winter coat I've ever owned. It's also pretty thin for how warm it is. I live in Beijing, and it's usually between -10 and 0 Celsius with strong winds, and I'm warm. I've never had a coat that blocked the wind as well or was as snow/rain proof (it bounces off!). I'm 5'4", and for me the size XS coat is the perfect length, falling at mid-thigh so your backside is totally covered for warmth but it's not long and cumbersome. The drawstrings on the waist are great and give a puffy parka a surprisingly sleek, feminine cut. I like the lining/inserts on the cuffs with the knitted material. They are really long and stretchy so you never, ever have gaps between your coat and gloves. Also, I don't agree with the other reviewer about the hood issue: the hood has a strap for adjusting in the back, so you can make it as large or...Read more

I've had this for three years and I have to walk a fair distance during january and february to get to work. It is incredibly warm. I have worn it to stand around in the coldest, windiest weather for hours.

Other reviews mentioned the collar - this coat is definitely designed to be worn with a scarf. However, the sleeves have an inner layer around the wrists that you can pull down, and with your hands in the big front pockets there is no need for gloves.

be warned that the silhouette is bulky (particularly in the trillium style that i have). i would recommend avoiding black - to give it a bit more style. my mother is going with the kensington parka design which supposedly has a better silhouette.
