“When it comes to the marriage of craftsmanship and beauty,
there’s no one more fitting than Haider Ackermann. He intuitively
understands Canada Goose as a brand apart from all others, and that
authenticity, craftsmanship and performance are the cornerstones of
our brand,” said Dani. “With his distinct ability to harness the
energy and potential of our authentic heritage, I look forward to
seeing his impact across our designs.”
The appointment is marked by the launch of an exclusive style in
support of Polar Bears International (PBI), which is at the
forefront of efforts to study, understand and protect polar bears
and their declining habitat. Inspired by a trip with Dani to
Churchill, Manitoba – known as the polar bear capital of the world
– his inaugural launch is a testament to their shared belief that
every human has an inherent responsibility to protect our planet
and an ability to make a meaningful impact.
The launch campaign celebrates film icon and one of today’s most
inspiring activists, Jane Fonda. Having dedicated her life to
educating, influencing, and inspiring the world on environmental,
cultural and societal issues, she is the ideal protagonist for this
important story.
“What drew me to Canada Goose is not only how they have created
a category, but also its authentic reputation and drive to stay
committed to its purpose. The impact this brand has had on the
world around us is meaningful and inspirational,” said Haider. “I
consider myself a student of the environment and my trip to
Churchill lit a fire to do more and be more. My hope is that by
coming together with the extraordinary climate champion Jane Fonda,
we can help drive people to act – and to do it now.”
“Collective action is the only way we can go further, faster,”
said Jane Fonda. “I have put my full force into inspiring
planet-friendly choices to address the climate crisis, and
partnering with Haider and Canada Goose to bring attention to
what’s happening in the Arctic is powerful, important and
essential.”
The limited-edition sweatshirt, called the PBI Hoodie, is made
of organic cotton and 100% of proceeds from the sale of the
sweatshirt will go to PBI to fund vital research, implement
innovative conservation strategies, and educate communities about
the importance of protecting the Arctic.
The PBI Hoodie launched today in select stores around the world
and online at CanadaGoose.com. Haider’s first seasonal capsule
collection will launch in Fall/Winter 2024.
