Roots – creators of quality apparel and leather goods, made with integrity in Canada since 1973 – have teamed up with Huck (that’s us fyi) to create a limited-edition collection that celebrates the philosophy behind our first book Paddle Against The Flow.
The clothing collection, which features a varsity jacket, five-panel hat, leather backpack and patch set, as well as a variety of t-shirts and a hoody, was inspired by the spirit of the book; the kind of stuff we hope you wear when you’re going to go out and do something.
All the pieces are available on the Roots website now and will soon be available at a number of stockists around the world. We’ll keep you posted.
“This book is dedicated to the millions out there who have thrown out the rulebook, defied authority, and challenged the way things are to dream and to try and make something different.” – Vince Medeiros, Huck Founder and Publisher.
Our Paddle Against the Flow book is published by Chronicle Books.
