Established in 1973, the Roots brand has stood the test of time. Inspired by the rugged beauty of Canada, Roots was created to capture the essence of the great outdoors. From its first store in Toronto to the launch of the Salt & Pepper Hoody, Roots has become an iconic brand with a rich heritage and portfolio of premium apparel, leather goods, accessories and footwear that allow people to live their life with a cool confidence and individual style that no one else can match. While the world around us has changed, Roots has stayed true to its original goal: Create an unmistakeable style with uncompromising comfort and quality.
