Roots

Roots – Inspired by Nature, Crafted in Canada

Born from a love of nature and adventure, Roots was founded in 1973 by Michael Budman and Don Green, inspired by the rugged beauty of Ontario’s Algonquin Park.

What began in Toronto with handcrafted footwear has grown into a beloved lifestyle brand known for premium leather goods, cozy salt & pepper sweats, natural fiber apparel, and thoughtful home essentials.

Staying true to its roots, the brand continues to craft its signature leather pieces in its Toronto factory, proudly showcasing Canadian quality and craftsmanship.
