Craftsmanship

Since 1921 our family has been protecting Canadians from the cold—a relentless quest that founded Moose Knuckles Canada in 2007.

From day one we have made it a priority to invest in Canada. From our tradition-steeped factories in Winnipeg, to our expert furriers in Toronto, to our passionate design team in Montreal, everything we do here is Canadian to the core.

We cultivate homegrown talent and skill, and live to innovate, challenge and lead the industry from our home turf. Our core parkas, bombers and other jackets are made in Canada with Canadian and imported components. Here's what we do in Canada: Moose Knuckles currently operates from three factories, and employs 200+ Canadians—including 90 skilled technicians—in the design, quality maintenance and production of our core coat collection. We proudly support local manufacturing. As a result, we inject millions of dollars annually in the Canadian economy, while preserving a tradition of Canadian craftsmanship.

The artisanal process of producing an average Moose Knuckles coat requires 74 operations and 90 skilled craftspeople. Each process is done by hand and requires the expertise of skilled pattern makers, machine operators, sewers and many other, all of whom, work tirelessly to bring you the finest coats that can be built.
