Sitka and Granted
Posted by Minphis | Filed under Custom Design, Mens, Unisex, Womens
We are proud to release a collaboration project with a local Canadian surf brand, Sitka . The unisex sweaters include the “howling wolf” design in different colourways.
These sweaters can be purchased online here or at your nearest finest Sitka retailer.
Sitka:
The name Sitka derives from the mighty Sitka Spruce, a tree naturally drawn to the rugged shorelines of Western Canada; our family grew from the same endeavor.
The seed was sown in the Fall of 2002 when two Canadian surfers, Andrew Paine and Rene Gauthier, with their shared passion and vision for making surfboards, decided to take their hobby out of the garage and offer a fresh possibility to the local surfing population.
While surfing always has and will continue to be the heart of our brand, Sitka’s nexus has expanded to encompass all of the elements that inspirit the lifestyle of our family – surf, skate, music, art, culture and travel

Official Release of the David Suzuki Sweater!
Posted by Minphis | Filed under Custom Design, Unisex
Three years ago the David Suzuki sweater started off as a concept project to see if the details of a person’s face would show properly on a knit swatch. Our knitter’s skill had to be tested as some of our Granted sweaters were going to be quite detailed in the future. One of our designer’s had an idea to knit up a Canadian icon and we all decided that David Suzuki’s face would make for an interesting knit. After weeks of tweaking, we finally had a design we were happy with. We waited anxiously as the knitters finished up the swatch (pictured) and the knit sample turned out better than planned. The next step was to make it into a sweater, we added Douglas Firs on the front and a simple motif… the sweater was finally complete! From there we posted it on our blog site not knowing the excitement it would bring and soon after we heard from the David Suzuki Foundation!
Today we are proud to announce that we will be selling the OFFICIAL David Suzuki sweater with partial proceeds going directly to the David Suzuki Foundation . This is your chance to own a unique piece of Canadiana. These sweaters will be produced in limited numbers and available only through our website.
Our new shopping cart will be up and running in August but you can pre-order now by emailing us at mail@grantedclothing.com
David Suzuki, Co-Founder of the David Suzuki Foundation, is an award-winning scientist, environmentalist and broadcaster. He is renowned for his radio and television programs that explain the complexities of the natural sciences in a compelling, easily understood way.

Saturday, super rad, sunny, spring, Seymour, snowboarding, session with Shota.
Ssssweeet!
This weekend the local ski hills were closed for the season but my friends and I decided to hike up Seymour and get some spring riding in. The day started off with weird weather. First there was sun, then clouds, then rain, and then to our surprise some snow! What was even more surprising was we had seen a bear. He was climbing trees and doing rad methods! We brought out our cameras and what we saw was amazing!
After our day on the hills we went home and looked through the photos. We soon realized the bear was just our friend Shota in our Bear mask sweater and retro hockey toque and mittens! Stupid us!
True West Coast Canadian style.
