5 new lightweight jackets from Canada Goose

The outerwear brand recently launched in-between-season (think 5C/ -5C weather) jackets including waterproof, breathable shells (so you're not locked in a chamber of your own sweat) and lightweight fitted insulated coats and vests (with stretchy microfiber panels on both sides for a super comfortable fit). The colour options have also moved beyond basic black and red to include a pretty floral print and even a day-glo bright camouflage—guaranteed to turn a few heads.

While the price tag is steep (the vests run $350 and the jackets $575), the jackets are designed to be layered to maximize their use. The lightweight insulated coat is ideal under a wool peacoat or boxy leather moto come fall. And for commuters, sheddable layers are worth their weight in gold.
