The Concepts x Canada Goose Collaboration Resembles the Cult Store
References: canada-goose & freshnessmag
The Concepts x Canada Goose jacket is unlike any Canada Goose product on the market. Concepts opened its first store in 1996 in Cambridge, Massachusetts and quickly grew into a large cult phenomena. Highlighting street and skate culture, Concepts is a boutique brand marketing to 'hipsters'. Combining the warm technology of Canada Goose and skate culture of Concepts, the jacket resembles what your local Canadian skateboarder would wear.
Retailing for $850, the hip-length jacket will be sold both in-store and online starting December 13th. The jacket is complete with a two-way locking zipper, brushed tricot chin guard and 3M reflective detailing on the dual-branded patches on the left sleeve. A detachable hood is lined with Arctic fox, which is itself removable, is also available.
