Citadel parka jacket from Canada Goose - that the likes and dislikes

It has long heard about the famous Canadian producers - Canada Goose. They have a large number of imitators, which means one thing: in Canada are manufactured high quality and popular jackets. Choosing the optimal model of winter wear, I tried not to get a fake. The first thing that drew the attention - the price. Down jacket can be bought for 10-20 thousand, but you can for 80.
Why such a price difference? Original is not cheap, for its manufacture take only the best quality materials, plus transportation, contingency expenses, all kinds of risks? And so on. We conclude: for 15 thousand rubles from the original "Canada Goose" you do not buy, so make no mistake, it was possible to grab the thing known brand for a penny, it is an ordinary copy

.

I immediately started to pay attention to the price: do not skimp on health. Besides, I wanted to buy a beautiful and stylish thing, so it was not a shame to go to the people. After reviewing a large number of proposed options, I decided to stay at the model from the Citadel Parka Canada Goose.
Buy a good warm jacket - a great success. Manufacturers often save on the insulation, using low-quality substitute. This insulation - vodoplavnyh feathers of birds, is expensive, but "Canada Goose" does not replace it with anything. Therefore, the price on the cushions respectively. Consider the main characteristics of my purchase.

Disadvantages
winter jacket. Major shortcomings exactly in the pockets. Initially, they brought me in admiration, but a more detailed analysis has revealed significant shortcomings.
Disassemble them in detail:
  • Pockets on the chest were absolutely useless for me, I never did not use them. Concluded: they are intended more for beauty than for use
  • The most notable flaw. Complete lack of fleece lining in the pockets. It is not in any, even those that are designed to warm the hands. Significant slip producer, in my opinion.
  • Inside there is one pocket, it is located on the left. It is unclear why not thought through and a second pocket: to carry small things, documents, wallet - they would be the most it!
