This model has been in use at McMurdo Station, Antarctica for almost 20 years. The Expedition Parka is one of our most popular international models. It is also the style used at the South Pole each year by the National Science Foundation division of Polar Research.
Canada Goose takes pride in creating authentic gear to help real people living in extreme conditions battle the elements. Originally developed for scientists working in research facilities at McMurdo station in Antarctica, the Canada Goose Expedition Parka allows its wearers to withstand the most frigid temperatures. Not only is it durable and well insulated, with 625 fill power white duck down, but its iconic design also features a highly functional collection of external pockets, perfect for easy gear storage and hand-warming.
When the wind really howls, the tunnel-shaped hood can be pulled tightly around the face, using an adjustable bracing wire, creating a sheltering pocket of air to keep the face warm.
But don’t ask us how functional the Expedition Parka is…ask the scientists at McMurdo station. They’ve been living in their Expedition Parkas for more than 20 years!
It features a unique front design with an abundance of pockets and, of course, the warmth for which our products are famous. Ask anyone who knows™.
