I have always been fascinated with the artistry that happens off-stage, the magic conjured behind the scenes. It's an arena where brilliant professionals ply their craft, often unnoticed, contributing significantly to the success of every performance. These unsung heroes, these essential cogs in the machine, are the inspiration behind my techwear brand, COG by Goose.
The brand name 'COG' is far from an accident. It's a purposeful reimagining of what a 'cog' symbolizes. The term, often used derogatorily to describe someone as a small, replaceable component in a larger machine, here celebrates the irreplaceability and importance of each individual in the collective success. We are all cogs in the grand theater of life, and every cog matters.
COG is more than just a techwear line—it's a salute to the unseen artists. With designs specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of backstage professionals, We aim to provide comfortable, functional, and stylish gear that makes their work easier, more efficient, and even more enjoyable.
Our newest offering, the Shadow Canvas series, is a celebration of these silent professionals. Each jacket in the series embodies the spirit of stealthy resilience and reliability that defines backstage workers. They are built to withstand the demanding environments these professionals often find themselves in, from the cool streets of Baguio City to the bustling backstage of a concert venue.

But COG is more than just apparel. It's a counter-culture, a philosophy that redefines success. We shift the focus from individual recognition to collective effort, from the pursuit of fame to the fulfillment derived from being part of something larger. Each jacket in our Shadow Canvas series is a symbol of this philosophy—a testament to the invaluable, often unseen work that these professionals contribute.
As the founder of COG, I invite you to join us in celebrating the art of the unseen. Recognize the vital role each one of us plays as a cog in the machine. Let's take pride in the significant contributions we make, whether in the spotlight or behind the scenes. Because in the end, it's the harmonious interplay of all the cogs that brings about the beautiful spectacle we admire.
