10 parkas to get you through the rest of winter in Canada

Doesn’t it feel like winter has been around for months already? Temperatures have dropped to lower than -20°C in some parts of the country, with dangerous conditions making for a snow day or two.

The good news is that the snow will eventually melt. But winter isn’t officially over until March 19. So if you’re still navigating your commute in a denim jacket, it’s time to upgrade to a coat that will keep you dry and prevent the cold from rattling your bones.

Select retailers are currently having post-holiday sales so it’s basically the optimum time to invest in a parka (or puffer) that you’ll be able to wear both now and this time next year.
