Meaning 'Arcitc Circle' in Finnish, Napapijri is a clothing and accessory company whose roots stem from Aosta, Italy. Its heritage is technical backpacks, an area the company had a strong background in, but their line-up soon broadened to include clothing. They most definitely have a unique style, often centering around the Norwegian flag. The European styling of Napapijri's products is a wonderful breath of fresh air.

"Which size should I get for my Canada Goose parka?" We often get asked what size Canada Goose is the right one. It's a great question and it depends on a few factors. Beyond your personal preference, there's your body size. We have made a sizing chart for your here. Those indicate measurements for your body. They don't take into account fit. Speaking of which, Canada Goose makes its jackets with three fit types: Slim, Regular and Relaxed. Below, you'll find a description of each style and a chart with the jackets organized by fit.

Ok, so you dropped a few Benjamins (or Sir Robert Borden if your flag has a maple leaf on it) on your sweet down jacket. You, my friend, are rocking the party that rocks the body. And that party is called the streets. Turning heads, you're smoking hot both figuratively and literally and everyone knows it.
But then, you also end up dropping some mustard on it. Oh dear. I don't know of too many stains that make you look cool, but mustard certainly isn't one of them. That's when you come see me for help. The truth is that mustard stains are a little intense for little old me. Here are some general washing instructions :
Use a front-loading washing machine (to avoid damaging the down baffles as well as the jacket).
Tumble-dry at low heat with 6 to 8 tennis balls in socks in order not to dirty the coat.
Tip: if you see that the water is no longer beading (making little water droplets) on the fabric, apply a spray-on water repellent to your washed jacket while it is still wet.
* Always be sure to check the manufacturer label for proper care instructions, as these may vary.
