Kootenay Knit & Apparel

Cranbrook, Kootenay

We are a Canadian, women-owned small business that designs and ethically produces high-quality, distinctive knitwear, headwear, apparel and accessory products. For the past 25 years, we have been known for the best toques and mittens and offer Canada-Made and Eco-Friendly products. Along with selling direct to consumers online, we sell to distributor and retailer customers offering branding, labelling and customization solutions. We have supplied local, regional and national partners with products that support fundraising and special events such as the “Pink Mitten” campaign that raised over $1 million for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, “MADD Mitten” program, NHL Players Association’s “Hockey Fights Cancer” and “Show Your Stripes” campaign for Ronald McDonald House Charities. As an official Olympic merchandise supplier, we have represented our community on the world’s stage with Olympic products including the infamous Canada “Red Mittens” at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. We continue to support small and large community initiatives and focus our efforts on women and girls’ programs. We are passionate about Products with Purpose.
