The Concepts Canada Goose vest has to be the design project I’m most proud of. To design not only the fabric and color usage but to actually modify and add onto a product like this one was an amazing experience.

When Clark and I were on the phone talking shoes (happens quite often) the conversation turned to my new vest then took a left turn to possibly using the same material as the vest on a pair of bespoke Air Force Ones. Possible to get extra material? How would it look?

Deon and I met Clark & Mayor at 21 Mercer and got to work. Each of us did something different with the same materials.

The material is called Arctic-Tech and it is a water proof shell developed by Canada Goose for use on their outerwear.

I’m digging the final product and am happy about how it went down!

Shouts to Clark, Mayor, Izzy & All Day.

Amazing experience— see you in 4 to 6 weeks!

All in a days work!

I flew out to Toronto to design this vest but the difference was actually walking the manufacturing floor of Canada Goose. Being able to see the raw material, the process and finished product was a great perspective to gain before delving into the design process on these vests. Learning the history of the company and understanding the purpose of their product was important to me. Canada Goose jackets, when used for their original intent, will save a life. The product they develop help professionals who work in extreme climates survive.

What is more important than that?

Granted my interpretation of this Alberta Vest was through the lens of fashion but it was built on function. Function to me is an important place to start— design that serves a purpose– and Canada Goose has mastered that.

I want to thank Dani, Kevin and Spencer at CG for their patience and support. I hope you dig the final product.

Also would like to thank Harris, Paul Mighty and Nick Cangello for the support on the project. It’s always a team effort.

This is the video piece I directed for the vest release— Paul Mighty is the model in the video and also produced the music used with Dj Manipulator under their production group name Boxcutters. TBB Music will be releasing Dj Manipulator’s “Live From The Badlands” in the next few weeks.
