Canada Goose sues International Clothiers for (allegedly!) ripping off its logo
Canada Goose takes its image very seriously, which is why it’s currently suing International Clothiers for producing a jacket named Super Triple Goose that sports similar features to the Canadian company’s signature coats: a logo on the right sleeve and two front-flap pockets on the waist.

Canada Goose is out of line here. I purchased this jacket from International Clothiers and absolutely love it! I paid $100. did I know it wasn’t a Canada Goose jacket? yes! was I told it was? No!
As a consumer I was concerned on its content for the price and when I asked I was informed it was mainly duck down and not goose. I was not lied to as I’m sure any one that asked was not lied to either.
