Perhaps this is a true case of the proverb \u201cnecessity is the mother of invention\u201d.<br \/>\nAs an Ontario based retailer, we know and experience all the challenges and extremes Mother Nature can conjure. Our winters are long and our customers want options in their outer-wardrobes.<br \/>\nWe have been purveyors of the world\u2019s finest winter brands for more than 36 years and every year we get just as excited to bring to our customers the latest trends and styles from around the world. We strive to offer something for every customer\u2019s varying needs and style &#8211; from comfort, functionality, waterproofness, warmth, and exclusivity.<br \/>\nThis year the focus of our team was coats \u2013 seeking out new styling, great tailoring, fabrics, and innovation. We viewed hundreds of brands and thousands of jackets and coats. The end result is a lovingly curated assortment of the best coats the world has to offer.<br \/>\nOur process is a comprehensive one. We start out with a review of what our store staff has to say about what our customers are looking for.<br \/>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col\">\nFrom there, we attempt to imagine each of our different customers, where they use the product, in and out of the car, on the hill, at the rink, or waiting for the bus as part of their city commute. We try to imagine all their needs and fill in the blanks from there.<br \/>\nMany customers want variety but also double duty from their ski and outerwear, to buy something that is designed for sport but stylish enough for a night out.<br \/>\nCustomers driven by sport and performance enjoy our extensive selection of brands and high performance skiwear for the backcountry or groomed runs alike.<br \/>\nLike building a custom home, some of our customers look for heritage, tradition and old world hand crafted workmanship while others are looking for unique one of a kind and appreciate the exclusivity of a brand sold in very few places.<br \/>\nFinally, armed with the knowledge of what we were looking for to meet our customers\u2019 needs, we travelled to the coolest cities in the world to find the luxury brands that provide warmth and exceptional styling. Understated or stand-out in a crowd, we have found what you are looking for.<br \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:15px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#cccccc\"><\/div>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4179\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-Image2.jpg\" alt=\"DesignerBrands-Image2\" width=\"893\" height=\"735\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-Image2.jpg 893w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-Image2-300x247.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-Image2-600x494.jpg 600w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-Image2-705x580.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\" \/><br \/>\n<div class=\"sc-columns third clearfix\">\n<div class=\"col\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4181\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DesignerBrands-TheNetherlands.jpg\" alt=\"DesignerBrands-TheNetherlands\" width=\"250\" height=\"43\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportinglife.ca\/sportinglife\/brand\/15375\/Goldbergh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4184 size-medium\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/GoldberghLogo-300x165.jpg\" alt=\"GoldberghLogo\" width=\"300\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/GoldberghLogo-300x165.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/GoldberghLogo.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThis will be our third season with Goldbergh.
