Most things are transitional detritus that get used for a while only because they happen to be there, the unintentional things just waiting to be replaced. We’re not like that with clothes. This is the art we’re passionate about at Canoe Club. We’re always intentional with what we buy and wear. When we collect vintage, it isn’t just old stuff, but timeless styles and carefully crafted pieces that are more than just durable, but actually get better with time. Vintage is the gold that is brought back to the surface. Vintage clothing is visceral like memories stitched together - like the language of oak trees. Some people collect paintings; we collect vintage clothes. This is the culture we love and the historical and living integrity that we pursue.
Though a few great memories might be contained in a nice suit, a bubble wand from a friend’s wedding or a theater program folded and forgotten in an inner pocket, it is athletic and workwear that evolves with us through the daily adventures that define life - the triumphs that are creased in when we roll up our sleeves.
Each vintage piece in this collection was chosen because it has a story, but also because it’s not done telling it. These are pieces of history - pieces of craftsmanship and characterful companions.
