Collection: Headgear

The very thing that started it all, and we don't mean Verus. Oh no, we mean Canada herself.

Long ago, in a land across the sea, many men led lives of insecurity and self-doubt. "How do we show our worth?" they would ask. Until one day, a muscular hulk of a man strode by wearing a beaver fur top hat. "That's it!" they cried "the hat will show how tough and impressive we are!" and thus began the beaver trade (some historians disagree). For years Europeans came over in ships to hunt beavers simply for their pelts and turned them into top hats for gentlemen and riffraff alike. Many of those trappers (voyageurs) ended up settling down and staying in our beloved country, and thus began the story of this beautiful nation. (We didn't make this up by the way, beaver hats are legitimately what this country was founded on.)

With this in mind we strive to bring you the very best headgear possible. Those that represent all the values and philosophy we hold dear mixed with the history and pride we take in calling ourselves Canadian (just wait until you see our toques). For anyone proud of our beaver heritage, these are for you.
