Canada Goose Expedition Arctic-Tech Down Parka - Men's - 2007

the jacket doesn't leak down. Think about how cold of weather you need a jacket for. In my opinion (I have one) 15 to 20 degrees F is the MAXIMUM temperature for this coat. It's the warmest thing you'll find besides the Canada Goose Snow Mantra. These have the best hoods for cold weather if you need that kind of thing.

This is enormous overkill for someone whose chief complaint is leaking down. Get the Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero. This won't leak feathers, but neither will that one and it's a third the price. And the MH has a removable hood, this doesn't. On a side, note, down coats doesn't belong in quotes.

definitely XL. I am 5'10", 205 and a Large is perfect and if anything, maybe a bit small if wearing something underneath.

XL should do the trick.

See if Back Country can get you the Canada Goose "Snow Mantra" Parka, It would suffice for what you are looking to be exposed to;http://www.canada-goose.com/70pr_snow_mantra_parka.htm

I'd go with an xl for sure.

It will keep him warm for sure. It is also very professional looking and will let people know he means business.Size medium will do him fine.

I'd probably shoot for a large in this jacket. The extra room will be nice for layering. Great jacket!I disagree with the answer above. I am 6'3" 170lbs and just bought a M after trying them on at the store. I take a 42" long in normal jacket size if that helps. They run very big.I bought the medium and it fits perfect! It's true, the Canada Goose Expedition does run a size bigger.

The weight is roughly 2.5 lbs. or just slightly under. I don't know that this would be the best jacket for mountaineering. Not waterproof, plenty warm but this is just more of a frigid expedition jacket.....in my opinion.

Yes they are one size bigger. We have several on the floor of our store in Canada. They are the best there is. we've had them to the top of Mont Tremblant at -45 celcius with the wind. Didnt even notice the cold.... natalie www.TandL.com

You can wear anything over a suit jacket, but I'm struggling to think of a situation where you'll need this jacket if you're going there in a suit. This is for working outside at a research station in Antarctica. It's incredibly burly. I would bet that you will never encounter a situation where you need it. If I'm wrong, let me know.Angus, you obviously haven't lived in the Yukon where you wear a suit or a suit or a sport coat under a parka, due to 50 below or more weather and you are in and out of your vehicle. Barry, I would say yes you can wear this parka over top of a sport coat or a suit.

CG Products are all made in Canada. Mostly in Toronto.

No such luck, it's 550. But there is so much more to a jacket than that. You're not paying for the fill power, that's just volume per weight and has no effect on the warmth of the jacket. You're paying for an incredibly well-constructed jacket that'll probably be way too warm for anything above about 10 degrees out, less if you're moving. 11 pockets, waterproof, real fur, wire-supported hood, I mean they use it at McMurdo, for cryin' out loud. Chances are, you don't need a jacket this hardcore, and if that's the case, the price is moot.

Here are the directions, straight from the Canada Goose website: Down-Insulated:When your down-filled parka requires cleaning, it is important that you take it to a dry cleaner and that you do not machine wash it. Machine washing your parka will void the warranty. If your parka has a removable fur option, remove the fur ruff before dry cleaning. If you have a small stain on your parka, another option is to spot-wash the parka with a bleach-free detergent and water.The Expedition Parka's ruff is NOT removable. I take mine to a very reputable dry cleaner who uses environmentally safe solvents and has experience with down and fur. Hope that helps.
