A Spotlight On Canadian Streetwear: Fresh Train Co., Handsome & Pardon Le Dopeness

More and more, I’ve been falling in love with streetwear. While the majority of these brands are often targeted towards men, there’s always pieces a girl can always work if she’s up to the challenge: graphic tees, over sized tanks, snap-backs, and beanies, to name a few. Here are three of my favourite up and coming streetwear brands that are both designed and produced in Canada.

Fresh Train Co. – This unisex, Toronto-based line of headwear is definitely onto something. Snapbacks with tiger print and wood lettering is pretty unexpected, but the result is surprisingly awesome.

White Classic Beanie, $28 CAD

Classic Star Edition I Snapback, $95 CAD

Tiger FRSH Snapback, $155 CAD

Handsome – For anyone from Toronto, wearing Handsome is a pretty cool way to rep your city – especially when the designs are as cool as these. The City Hall sweatshirt will be mine.

YE Sweatshirt, $65 CAD

New World Order II T-Shirt, $45 CAD

City Hall Sweatshirt, $45 CAD

Pardon Le Dopeness – There are few things more perfect then a Canadian streetstyle brand whose name is written in Franglais. Based out of Toronto, Pardon Le Dopeness designs evoke a specific brand of badass, reckless youth that I can’t resist.
