Where these two actually differ
- We flag DWR coating durability and composition and Down insulation quality and allergenicity on the Canada Goose and not on the Patagonia.
- We flag PFAS in DWR finish, Microplastics shedding from polyester and Coating degradation and leaching on the Patagonia and not on the Canada Goose.
- The Canada Goose is Down insulation, nylon shell with DWR finish where the Patagonia is recycled polyester with DWR treatment, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
