Canada Goose Online Retail Europe

Canada Goose, the world’s leading maker of Arctic luxury outerwear, is venturing into new territories this season with the introduction of online retail in two of its key European markets.  From today, fans of the brand in France and the UK will be able to shop the collections directly through the canadagoose.com site.

The launch marks Canada Goose’s first direct to consumer channel in Europe and comes in direct response to the overwhelming demand for its iconic parkas, jackets and shells in France and the UK. The brand, which has enjoyed explosive growth of over 2000% the last decade, counts the two markets as its largest and fastest growing in Europe.

The digital European flagship brings the brand closer to some of its most loyal consumers and gives them a luxury shopping experience which reflects the spirit of Canada Goose. As well as offering exclusive styles, limited-edition collaborations and free standard shipping, the site uses features such as fit analytics to help shoppers find the perfect outerwear piece to suit their shape and style. 

The new Canada Goose Autumn/Winter 2016 collection, which brings a distinctive and covetable aesthetic to the brand’s functional heritage, is available to purchase online for the launch. The collection features includes the re-design of an award-winning classic – HyBridge 2.0 - as well as new innovative styles such as the Savona Jacket, which is an urban update to the classic bomber in a sleek feminine silhouette, and the Woolford Coat, a utilitarian influenced bomber length style.

The introduction of online retail in Europe follows its launch in Canada in 2015 and comes just ahead of another important milestone for the almost sixty year old Canadian company. Later this year, as part of its plans to drive continued global growth, Canada Goose is opening two standalone flagship stores in Toronto and New York.

Sherpa Trucker Jackets in Style

Are sherpa trucker jackets currently in style?  Well, we think that the answer is, "probably".  They are back for the fall/winter.

The denim trucker jacket is one example of the use of Sherpa with outerwear.  But the denim look is not the only option.

What's better than a Sherpa lining for warmth or to add a little extra style to the collar?  If you are interested in purchasing a women's Sherpa trucker jacket, we suggest you visit the Levi's website.  They have new washes, finishes and styles available.

By the way, we are not talking about the Sherpa people who are an ethnic group in eastern Nepal.  Sherpa material is a soft, thick polyester fabric made to resemble sheepskin (it can also be a cotton/poly blended fabric). The material feels like suede on one side and soft, fleecy wool on the other.

The Trucker Jacket is typically thought of as a classic Levi's style denim jacket. The Sherpa Trucker jacket is the classic Levi's style jacket which also has Sherpa fabric.

The North Face Moon Parka

The Moon Parka, as it’s called, is a special edition coat made with Spider Silk.

North Face’s outlets in Japan will sell a special edition “Moon Parka”.  The Moon Parka is a gold-colored jacket based on the design of its existing Antarctica parka, made out of synthetic spider silk, a super-strong material developed by Spiber Inc.

Farming silk from spiders isn’t as simple as harvesting wool from sheep, or milk from cows. It takes a lot of spiders a lot of time to produce not a lot of silk.  Synthetic spider silk may be the way of the future.

On September 26, 2015, based on The North Face's Antarctica Parka, Spiber created the world's first outerwear prototype made with their spider fibroin-based protein material QMONOS.  They call this historic prototype the "Moon Parka."   It appears that they are now closer to selling the jackets to fortunate shoppers.

The North Face's Antarctica Parka is an outerwear jacket designed to endure the harsh conditions and intense cold of the South Pole, which the Moon Parka is designed to match.  The QMONOS outer material is the natural web color of the Golden Orb spider, and the almost unearthly glow inspired us to dub the color "Moon Gold."  The embroidered logos on the jacket are also made from a black QMONOS.

Another company working with spider thread is Bolt Threads.  They believe that answers to our most vexing problems can be found in nature. Every day they are inspired by the amazing materials they work with, and driven by the desire to turn these materials into incredible products.  They are planning to help change our clothes.  Insects and spiders have the ability to produce natural silk fibers with remarkable properties including high tensile strength, elasticity, durability and softness.  At Bolt Threads, they are developing new technology to replicate this amazing silk production process sustainably on a very large scale.  They study silk proteins found in nature to determine what gives them their incredible properties.  They develop proteins inspired by these natural silks by putting genes into yeast.  They take the silk proteins and spin them into fibers.  They then knit or weave the fibers into garments.
