How it Started

We’re Andy & Natasha, and your experience has probably been similar to ours.

In our small Ontario town we’ve seen factories close, friends lose jobs and homes, and local shops struggle against big multinational corporations.

Meanwhile, overseas manufacturing has flooded our economy with cheaply-made foreign goods that don’t create Canadian jobs or contribute to our economy.

We decided there has to be a better way.

Canadian-made clothing with a purpose

We believe local manufacturing and farming jobs are key to resurrecting Canada's economy.

These jobs put food on the table for millions of families, fund our social programs, and produce products that reduce our cost of living.

We started the Choose Canadian apparel brand as a grassroots way of spreading two key messages: 

  1. If you’re a consumer, try to buy Canadian-made and Canadian-grown.
  2. If you’re influential at a company, try to source your goods locally.

Since our launch, we’ve been delighted to meet so many fellow Canadians who care about jobs and where their products come from.

Clothing that’s 100% Made in Canada

We’re committed to manufacturing every piece of our clothing entirely in Canada.

Supporting the local economy, providing fair wages, minimizing our ecological footprint, and making clothes that are designed to last are all non-negotiable.

Our supply chain is completely domestic.

Our shirts are knitted in Etobicoke, dyed in Brampton, cut and sewn in Scarborough, and pressed in Orangeville.

This tight radius of operations gives us better quality oversight, reduces our carbon emissions, and ensures every worker in our supply chain is paid fairly in Canadian dollars.

How you can help

It's time to unite Canadians who want to bring back jobs and rebuild the Canadian economy.

Together, we can inspire Canadians to build local and buy local.
