Hill's of Kerrisdale has a rich history in Vancouver's retail landscape and it is a cornerstone in the neighbourhood and shopping district of Kerrisdale. The family's retail business originated in 1914 and Hill's of Kerrisdale opened its doors in the mid 1920's. Third generation retailers, brother and sister team Ross and Nancy Hill have continued their father's success with Hill's of Kerrisdale and expanding the business to Blue Ruby Jewellery in 1998 and Ray Rickburn Fine Men's Apparel in 2004.


The atmosphere of Hill's of Kerrisdale is a vintage, old school feel but their merchandise is anything but. A fashion destination for men's and ladies branded clothing and accessories. Hill's is constantly sourcing new items and brands but at the same time keeping their "must have" customer favourites.

Store Feature: Granville Island Hat Shop

For almost thirty years the hat shop has been a destination and landmark for Vancouver’s residents and visitors alike. The shop has offered a range of traditional men's and ladies toppers, as well as casual selections for the entire family since its inception in the late 80’s. 

The shop has recently undergone a facelift and complete re branding to coincide with the launch of a private label and full service restoration studio, the only one of its kind in BC. The shop provides vast selection of Canadian, European, Australian, and American designs. Most notably Borsalino, Christy’s of London, and Akubra for the gentleman and Lilliput, Canadian Hat and many other couture millinery pieces for the ladies.

With deep roots in Vancouver and a strong knowledge of the city’s unpredictable weather patterns the shop puts a focus on fashionable yet functional head wear. The store has become a haven for hat enthusiasts young and old and has transformed many skeptical souls into true devotees.

Nigel Cabourn, Eddie Bauer and Granted

Nigel Cabourn Authentic in collaboration with a Eddie Bauer and Granted hand knits.  UK Designer, Nigel Cabourn designs quality garments with inspirations by accessing the archives of Eddie Bauer’s vintage museum of great American outerwear dating back from 1920 to the 1950s.

This uniquely detailed goose design jumper was added to Cabourn's 2012-2013 F/ W line. Patterns and motif placement are collected elements from a vintage knitted hunting pattern. Other details such as the original Eddie Bauer flying goose pattern and Cabourn's custom zippers and collar button closure.


"I'm not really interested in doing things that don't work in the long term. All of the fabrics I use are really wonderful, really practical. It's clothing for men, after all."
Nigel Cabourn
