Products
Canada Goose manufactures outerwear and apparel, including coats, parkas, knitwear, hats, gloves and footwear. Its longest-running products are its parkas, which are meant to keep the wearer warm in freezing temperatures. These coats have been worn by researchers in the United States Antarctic Program and in dogsledding events such as the Iditarod and the Yukon Quest In November 2018, the company acquired the bootmaker Baffin. In November 2021, Canada Goose launched its first-ever footwear collection.

The brand is known for its distinctive logo, which resembles an arctic map of the North Pole encircled by red text that reads "CANADA GOOSE" on top and "ARCTIC PROGRAM" along the bottom. This badge is usually placed on the upper arm of a coat or jacket. The company does not outsource its manufacturing or license its brand to other manufacturers, and brands its products as "Made in Canada".

Counterfeiting
To combat counterfeiting, Canada Goose has set up a web page that verifies whether Canada Goose goods sold by a particular vendor are authentic or not. Fake Canada Goose Jackets are one of the many counterfeit items being handled by Project Chargeback, a collaboration between the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, credit-card companies, and banks, to scrutinize online merchant accounts. In 2011, as an anti-counterfeiting measure, Canada Goose began sewing hologram trademarks into its jackets as proof of authenticity.

In October 2012, Canada Goose won a legal battle against counterfeiters in Sweden. The District Court of Stockholm found five individuals guilty of felony fraud, trademark infringement, and customs offences. The Court sentenced two of the defendants to serve time in prison and awarded Canada Goose damages of 701,000 SEK (approximately CAD$105,000).

Sustainability and treatment of animals
Canada Goose has been criticized by animal rights groups and anti-fur advocates for the use of goose down and coyote fur in the construction of its jackets. In 2015, a group called Animal Justice Canada filed a complaint with the Competition Bureau of Canada claiming that the trapping methods used by Canada Goose's coyote fur suppliers were inhumane. In March 2017, PETA bought 230 shares of the company so it could propose a shareholder resolution at Canada Goose's next annual meeting to "ask them to abandon the cruel use of fur and feathers."

In April 2020, the company announced that by 2022, all of the fur in its jackets would be sourced from reclaimed coyote fur already existing within supply chains. In June 2021, Canada Goose amended that plan, announcing it would stop using fur entirely by 2022. PETA subsequently suspended its international campaign against Canada Goose, while still urging the manufacturer not to use goose down in its jackets. In November 2021, the company's goods achieved the Responsible Down Standard, a certification that ensures feathers in Canada Goose jackets are sourced, according to certifying body the Environmental and Ethical Certification Institute, from "farms that respect animal welfare".

In 2023, the company launched Generations, a platform intended to keep its products in circulation by allowing consumers to trade in and purchase previously owned Canada Goose apparel.
