Raincoast toques and hats are now available!
Just in time for the holidays, you can purchase ethically and locally made gear while representing Raincoast.
We are so happy to have our Raincoast hats back in stock. Supply chain issues meant that these hats took much longer to make than we expected, but we were willing to wait because we know these hats are so worth it! Our team wears them in the sun, rain, and snow, which is how we know that they are truly an all-season hat.
With our restocked hats, we have added Raincoast toques to our shop! Like our Raincoast hats, our toques are ethically made in Canada from one of our favourite clothing manufacturers, Anián, based in Victoria, BC. Anián is a circular fashion company that was born from the belief that “the clothes we enjoy in the natural world should not be harming it.”
Raincoast toques are made from a midweight 60% merino, 40% recycled cashmere blend. The merino content insulates, wicks away moisture, and is remarkably smooth to the touch, while the recycled cashmere reduces environmental impact and lends exceptional softness for everyday wear.
Both our Raincoast hats and toques have been reviewed and approved by our Healthy Waters Program director, Dr. Peter Ross, who is a stickler for microplastics. Both also make a great holiday gift!
We are so grateful for our supporters who represent our organization on their adventures!
You can help
Raincoast’s in-house scientists, collaborating graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professors make us unique among conservation groups. We work with First Nations, academic institutions, government, and other NGOs to build support and inform decisions that protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the wildlife that depend on them. We conduct ethically applied, process-oriented, and hypothesis-driven research that has immediate and relevant utility for conservation deliberations and the collective body of scientific knowledge.
We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
