FAQs About Women's Coats & Jackets

What is the Canada Goose TEI rating?

TEI stands for Thermal Experience Index, Canada Goose's rating for the temperature range each style is built for. Lower ratings suit everyday city wear; higher ratings are built for extended time in severe cold. Check the rating on each product page and match it to how long you actually spend outside.

What is the difference between a parka and a winter coat?

A parka is a hip-length or longer insulated coat with a hood, built for sustained cold. A winter coat is a broader term that includes wool coats and shorter puffers. For walking or standing outdoors in January, choose a parka; for the office and the car, a wool coat.

Which women's coats are warmest?

Canada Goose parkas are built for the coldest conditions, with the TEI rating on each product page showing the intended range. Wool coats from labels like RIANI and LAMARQUE are for milder cold and indoor-to-car days. Puffers sit between the two, with more warmth than wool and less bulk than a parka.

Do you carry lighter jackets for spring and fall?

Yes. Leather bombers, denim and cropped jackets, and lighter Canada Goose down and fleece styles cover October and April. L'AGENCE, LAMARQUE and Pistola cover the fashion end and Canada Goose the technical one, so a spring jacket can be chosen for looks, for weather, or for both.

What should I look for in a winter coat?

Insulation matched to the cold you face, a hood or high collar, a length that covers the hips, and enough room to wear a sweater or blazer underneath. For Canada Goose, the TEI rating covers the first point. Sleeve and hem adjustments on regular-priced wool coats are complimentary at Channer's.
