Roots

Starting with a tiny store in Toronto… Roots now has more than 120 retail locations in Canada and the United States, and more than 100 in Asia. The Roots style and values are all about quality, integrity and longevity.
Roots is synonymous with Canadian style; It’s no surprise that they’ve created a special Canada collection inspired by a love for the country we call home. Be sure to pick up a limited-edition nice™ button in support of Indigenous Youth Empowerment Programming run by WE.
