The Official Totoro sweater


 A must have for any Totoro (Ghibli studios) fan. Limited edition and exclusively available only through GBL in Japan.

Studio Ghibli began designing adult fashion using high quality materials under their new “GBL” clothing label. Aimed at adult fans of Ghibli anime films.

Corrine Hunt X Burton X Team Canada

These hand knit sweaters were produced for the snowboard athletes village wear. Once produced they were taken in a high definition photograph and emulsified onto the fabric of the jacket to give off a sweater like look. These technical jackets will be worn during the actual competitions.

“The motifs on the sweater and the uniform jacket represent strength, beauty, creativity and agility. Emblazoned with the bear, raven, sun and orca, the athletes will shine inside and out.” Corrine Hunt

“It’s really nice to feel at home in your gear.” Mark McMorris

We couldn’t be happier with how the project turned out. The Granted Sweater Company is looking forward to cheering on our Canadian Athletes in Pyeongchang!

Go Canada Go!

Stadium cable sweater (indigo/navy) - Styled by Clément Breton

 

Clément Breton (Paris, France)

My style is not really defined, it is a mix between work wear, military and vintage. Utility clothing in all these spans. I like to be able to mix the inspirations, materials, colors to create something more accomplished.

My grandfather was a farmer and I inherited some of his clothes, his hunting jacket is the trigger I think;) I really like to return to the roots of garments, What they convey in the past,  A return to true values.

"I love the blues for this model, a good basic item for several of my outfits. The wool is really beautiful, I like this dry and raw side of the material. The raglan sleeves gives it a much more current look that I like well, the difference in gauge and knitting on the collar gives a slightly more rustic side (the perfect balance). The double zipper closure is good and essential for me on this kind of sweater".

Store Feature: Danali

Aubrey, a former fashion consultant and store owner of Danali purchased a small menswear shop downtown, at the age of 23. Since then, the store has moved locations and Danali is now in their fifteenth year on one of the busiest street corners in Winnipeg.

Along with Aubrey's daughter and son that have worked alongside him for the past 7 years they have a core of hardworking colleagues. Jon, their denim wizard who has been at the shop for over 21 years, Simmie, their lovely manager who has been there over 9 years) and an additional incredible crew of about 10 floor staff.

Danali pride themselves in providing the best level of customer experience there city has to offer. Relationships remain more important than transactions and they encourage a 'no pressure' sales atmosphere. The integrity and dedication that Aubrey and his crew continues to have for the store is evident and is what keeps people coming back again and again.

A conscious shift in the last few years has pushed us to carry over 7 Made in Canada brands, including Naked and Famous Denim, 18 Waits, Judith and Charles, Wings + Horns, and most recently, Granted Sweater Company.

The NASA Sweater Has Landed

Rocketing into outer space and floating in zero gravity; my childhood dream to one day become an astronaut.  I dug through some old photos of my early years and used this as inspiration for Granted’s new NASA sweater. It proved a difficult task at first, as there were so many events and icons to draw from throughout the decades. We landed on the now retired “worm” logo, a vivid representation of my growing up in the 80s. It’s playful, it’s fun, it has an astronaut, rockets and retro gradients all vibrantly mixed into a spacey milky way of timeless knitting craft.  The NASA sweater has landed.

Canadian Wildlife Federation - Right Whale Sweater

We are happy to introduce our new Right whale sweater with the Canadian Wildlife Federation.

The Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) is a national not-for-profit charitable organization dedicated to ensuring an appreciation of our natural world and a lasting legacy of healthy wildlife and habitat. CWF is also a leader in marine conservation initiatives designed to help marine wildlife flourish, working collaboratively to ensure the conservation of endangered marine species like the North Atlantic Right Whale.

Did you know:

  • North Atlantic Right Whales weigh in at nearly 70 tonnes, reaching 17 metres in length?
  • Female Right Whales can live for over 50 years?
  • They are notoriously slow to grow? Females don’t reach sexual maturity until their 10th birthday. When pregnant they give birth to just one calf.
  • Between two and six whales are killed every year due to entanglement in fishing gear?
  • Based on scarring patterns, it’s likely more than 100 North Atlantic Right Whales become entangled in ropes every year?
  • Less than 500 Right Whales remain in our oceans?

Proceeds from the purchase of this sweater go to support CWF’s vital conservation programs.
