The Ultimate Guide to Choosing a Ground Force Winter Parka

When you work outdoors in a Canadian winter, your jacket is your lifeline. Ground Force parkas are engineered for warmth, waterproofing, and visibility—without the bulk. In this guide, we break down insulation types, why taped seams matter, and how CSA‑compliant hi‑viz keeps crews safer.

• Warmth without compromise. Premium insulation traps heat while breathable liners release moisture. Look for adjustable hoods, storm flaps, and waist drawcords to seal out wind.
• Waterproofing that lasts. A durable outer shell, taped seams, and storm cuffs prevent seep‑through in slush and sleet. Pair with waterproof bibs for full‑body protection.
• Visibility on site. Hi‑viz panels and reflective tape help you stand out in low light. If your job requires CSA compliance, verify the parka’s class rating before purchase. 

Pro tip: A 3‑in‑1 or 6‑in‑1 parka adapts to changing conditions—wear the shell alone, the liner alone, or both together. For 30 days only, take 25% off Ground Force parkas at SSC—shop now while sizes last.
