Alpine down for men
Baffle down coats, expedition parkas, insulated hoods and stormproof warmth.
Alpine down is an outerwear style built around high volume insulated parkas and baffle jackets designed for deep winter protection. Oversized and relaxed silhouettes pair down fill with weatherproof textiles like Gore Tex, balancing functional storm coverage against tailored urban trousers in navy, black, and white.
Moncler began in nineteen fifty two in a French alpine village near Grenoble making padded sleeping bags; it made its first down jackets for its own workers in nineteen fifty four and equipped the Italian expedition that climbed the second highest mountain on earth that year. Canada Goose, now based in Toronto, began as Metro Sportswear in nineteen fifty seven, and researchers in the United States Antarctic Program have worn its parkas. In the eighties the Moncler down jacket became part of a youth look in Milan, and by the late nineties The North Face counted New York rappers among its buyers.
Due West in Toronto brings Canada Goose parkas and Descente down. Utopia in Toronto brings Moncler down jackets and vests, many of them pre owned, with Mackage, The North Face and Stone Island.
