Hypebeast Feature: Essentials – Western Canada

Rob Lo – Roden Gray

Wings + Horns 100% Organic T-Shirts
They come in a two pack and come in an amazing reusable box. These tees are really soft and they wash really well and the fits are perfect!

Sonic Care Toothbrush
It’s clinically proven to remove significantly more plaque than any electric toothbrushes on the market. Once you’ve tried this you‘ll never go back to just an ordinary toothbrush, it’s also compact enough for traveling.

Sleeman’s Amber Micro Brew Beer
Don’t really have to explain much about this great Canadian beer company.

Rodney Graham
One of my favorite artists from Vancouver Canada, also internationally known!

Roden Gray Custom Furniture
Our latest project is producing custom furniture. Initially, we crafted Douglas Fir beams into fixtures for Roden Gray. After a favorable reaction; we were commissioned to produce exclusive pieces for a select group of worldwide clients. The production process is extremely intensive; each individual piece takes at least two weeks for production. The process is complex; each beam is cured, carved, burnt, sealed, sanded, and finally colored.

why so much hate? haha
Do you even know what the scene is? think about it…
I don’t understand why Calgary wasn’t featured. Their city is just as good if not alot better then Edmonton. They have shops worth mentioning.
As far as Edmonton goes. There is no scene what’s so ever there. All the stores are garbage compared to Vancouver, the U.S. and Asia. Stores aren’t even consistant with stock and alot of brands available to other cities aren’t stocked here.
Sleeman is awsome
“I think Canada is the only place with Tim Hortons” There’s actually one in the Spar on Regent St. in London. =)
