Why Richmond Is Different

Richmond is designed around a simple idea:

A serious winter parka should not force you to choose between warmth and style.

Some winter coats prioritize fashion but provide limited protection once temperatures fall.

At the opposite end, expedition-focused parkas can deliver substantial warmth but may feel too technical or oversized for everyday urban wear.

Richmond occupies the space between them.

It is substantial enough for real winter conditions while retaining the cleaner proportions, structured appearance and sophisticated character expected from premium urban outerwear.

That balance makes Richmond one of Arctic Bay’s strongest statements for Fall/Winter 2026–27.

Top-Tier Canadian Winter Performance

Richmond is built as a premium winter parka — substantial, warm and made for cold-weather living.

Its strength does not come from a single specification.

Warmth is created by the complete system: insulation, lining, shell, hood, cuffs, closure, fit and coverage working together.

At the centre of that system is 725 Fill Power RDS down, providing efficient loft and insulation without requiring unnecessary bulk.

For Richmond, the target is not extreme expedition length.

The goal is a balance of performance, comfort and luxury that works naturally in an urban environment.

Arctic Bay positions Richmond for winter conditions around –25°C.

Actual warmth and comfort will always depend on factors including activity level, layering, fit, exposure time, wind and individual cold tolerance.

Double Lining

One of Richmond’s defining features is its double-lined construction.

The additional lining layer adds another level of structure and protection inside the garment, supporting heat retention while creating the substantial premium feel expected from a high-quality winter parka.

That matters because a winter coat is more than the insulation between its outer and inner fabrics.

The way those layers are assembled affects how the garment feels, how it holds its shape and how effectively the insulation works as part of the complete cold-weather system.

Richmond’s double lining contributes to the sense of substance that distinguishes it from a lightweight fashion coat.

It is warmth you do not necessarily see from the outside — but part of what gives Richmond its premium winter character.

725 Fill Power RDS Down

Richmond uses 725 Fill Power RDS down, specified as 80% down and 20% feather.

Fill power measures the lofting ability of down — essentially, how efficiently it expands and creates insulating air space.

Higher-quality down can provide substantial warmth without requiring excessive weight.

But fill power alone never tells the whole story.

A parka also depends on its shell, lining, coverage, cuffs, hood, closure and overall fit.

That is why Richmond combines premium down insulation with the other construction details needed for real winter use.

The result is a coat designed around meaningful warmth while maintaining the cleaner silhouette that defines Richmond’s urban character.

TrueNorth® Fabric

Richmond uses Arctic Bay’s TrueNorth® fabric, an important part of its winter protection system.

The shell has a structured woven construction designed to provide resistance to water, wind and stains, together with a water-repellent finish.

That distinction is important.

Water-resistant is not the same as fully waterproof.

Richmond is not intended to function as a technical rain shell. Instead, TrueNorth® fabric helps provide practical protection from the wind, snow and everyday winter moisture encountered during cold-weather use.

At the same time, the fabric contributes to the parka’s structured appearance — an important part of Richmond’s balance between technical performance and sophisticated style.

Luxurious Coyote-Fur Trim

One of Richmond’s most recognizable features is its oversized, generous coyote-fur trim.

The fur gives the parka its unmistakable Arctic Bay character and creates a strong visual frame around the hood.

But its purpose is not purely decorative.

A generous fur ruff can help disrupt wind and blowing snow around the face, providing practical protection in cold and exposed conditions.

At the same time, it gives Richmond the luxurious presence that helps distinguish the model from more conventional winter jackets.

The effect is bold without becoming excessive.

It is one of the elements that makes Richmond immediately recognizable.

Removable Hood & Removable Fur

Versatility is built directly into Richmond.

The hood is removable, and the coyote-fur trim is also removable.

That allows the same parka to take on different personalities depending on weather conditions, location and personal style.

Wear the full hood and oversized fur trim for Richmond’s strongest winter statement.

Remove the fur for a cleaner and more understated appearance.

Remove the hood for an even more streamlined urban silhouette.

That adaptability is particularly valuable in a premium winter coat because the same garment may be worn across different environments — from exposed winter streets to driving, restaurants, offices and travel.

Richmond is designed to change with the occasion rather than lock the wearer into a single look.

Premium YKK Zipper

Richmond is equipped with a YKK zipper, selected for dependable and smooth operation.

A zipper can appear like a small detail until it becomes the primary closure on a coat worn repeatedly through a long winter.

In demanding cold-weather use, reliability matters.

The zipper needs to operate consistently while the coat is being opened and closed throughout the day, often while wearing gloves and moving between outdoor cold and heated indoor environments.

The use of premium hardware supports Richmond’s overall emphasis on function, durability and quality.

Smart Storage

Richmond is designed for everyday functionality with two interior pockets.

One interior pocket is positioned on the left side, with a second interior pocket on the right side.

That provides secure, convenient storage close to the body for essentials such as a phone, wallet, keys or other personal items.

The important part is that this functionality does not interfere with Richmond’s clean exterior.

Instead of covering the coat with highly visible utility compartments, Richmond keeps much of its practical storage discreet.

That reinforces the overall design philosophy:

Function is present when you need it, without dominating the look.

Fashion Meets Function

Richmond stands apart from many traditional winter parkas because it does not force the wearer to choose between warmth and elegance.

Compared with fashion-first outerwear, Richmond offers substantial insulation and practical winter construction.

Compared with more technical expedition-style parkas, Richmond delivers a cleaner, more sophisticated and fashionable urban silhouette.

That makes it equally comfortable in very different settings.

Richmond can look at home on winter streets in Montreal or Toronto, but its aesthetic is not limited to Canada.

The same combination of serious warmth and polished urban style works naturally in New York, Chicago, London and across Europe.

The climate may change.

The role of the coat remains the same:

serious winter protection that still looks appropriate when you reach your destination.

A Structured, Urban Silhouette

Richmond’s shorter proportions are an important part of its identity.

Rather than using the extended length of an expedition-oriented parka, Richmond maintains a more compact silhouette that works particularly well for urban movement.

That makes it practical for driving, walking through the city, commuting, winter travel and regularly moving between indoor and outdoor environments.

The shorter design naturally provides less lower-body coverage than a long parka, but that is part of Richmond’s intended character.

It is designed for the winter customer who wants meaningful warmth without giving up a sharper, more contemporary shape.

THE MOST-WANTED PARKA OF FALL/WINTER 2026–27

Top. Top. Top.

Richmond is designed to make a statement without being excessive.

The oversized fur gives it presence.

The structured silhouette gives it character.

The double lining gives it substance.

The 725 Fill Power RDS down gives it serious insulating capability.

The removable hood and fur make it versatile.

The TrueNorth® fabric brings winter protection.

The premium hardware completes the package.

Together, those details create a parka that feels exclusive, modern and premium from the first impression.

That is the idea behind Richmond’s positioning as:

THE MOST-WANTED PARKA OF FALL/WINTER 2026–27.

It is not about warmth alone.

And it is not about fashion alone.

Richmond is for someone who wants maximum winter comfort with maximum style — a coat capable of performing in real winter while still looking refined enough for the environments where it will actually be worn.

Made in Canada

Richmond is proudly Made in Canada.

Canadian-made construction is an important part of the Arctic Bay identity and Richmond’s place within the collection.

The finished garment is manufactured in Canada using selected materials and components sourced according to the requirements of the parka.

The point of Made in Canada is not that every individual fibre or component must originate domestically.

It is about where the finished garment is manufactured and where the complete winter parka is brought together.

For Richmond, that Canadian construction is part of the overall combination of quality, winter functionality and premium character.

Who Is Richmond For?

Richmond is for someone who wants a serious winter parka but does not want to look as though they are heading on an expedition every time the temperature drops.

It is designed for the wearer who values premium warmth, sophisticated style, practical functionality and versatility.

Someone who wants substantial insulation.

Someone who appreciates the presence of oversized fur but also wants the option to remove it.

Someone who wants a hood when conditions demand it and a cleaner silhouette when they do not.

Someone who expects practical storage and reliable hardware.

And someone who wants all of those things in a Canadian-made winter parka.
