Canada goose is basically par for the course living in Switzerland but IMO they are over rated and over priced.

Overpriced, probably. Overrated, I wouldn't say that.

I say over rated because minus city living use they are very sensitive and not very durable.

I respectfully disagree, they come with lifetime warranties on all the hardware and linings as well. Paid $1000 CAD for mine 7 years ago and it’s still perfect, and I don’t know what living in a city has to do with it. The city I live in often gets -30 Celsius (-22 F) and I’ve never had a problem.

And if you really are a dude from Miami, I can’t imagine your opinion on winter parkas is very relevant! (Just kidding, lol, opinions always welcome)

I live in Switzerland at the base of the alps… but yea I mean if yours lasted that long then great but what I mean by city living is that it’s not the outdoors of your just hopping on trains and into the office, I’m talking durability from hiking, climbing, really doing things outdoors.

Fair enough, they do make purpose-specific product lines for more extreme weather/winter activities, though, but I can't speak for those.
