The story of Kootenay Knit & Apparel unfolds in the year 1994 within the East Kootenays, a picturesque locale nestled in the stunning landscapes of British Columbia, Canada. This region boasts breathtaking vistas, majestic mountain ranges, verdant valleys, meandering rivers, and crystalline lakes. It serves as a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering year-round activities such as skiing, snowboarding, biking, golfing, fishing, and hiking. It was against this backdrop that Cathy Rella, the visionary owner, harnessed her innate design talent and creative flair to initiate a uniquely Canadian enterprise specializing in headwear and knitwear.

Kootenay is synonymous with purpose-driven products and impactful programs. Over the years, we've collaborated with numerous renowned retailers and corporations, delivering unparalleled exposure, community benefits, and goodwill. Our passion lies in crafting products that narrate stories, embody a higher purpose, or champion noble causes. We take immense pride in our 'Pink Mitten' campaign, which raised nearly $1 million for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, as well as our continuous six-year partnership with the NHL Players Association's 'Hockey Fights Cancer' Program.

As a Canadian, woman-owned business, we achieved certification from the Women Business Enterprises Canada Council in 2018, furthering diversity program opportunities. Today, we remain committed to designing and producing distinctive, top-quality, and stylish products, catering to individuals, groups, corporations, distributors, and retailers alike.

Our mission is clear and resolute: To provide unique products with a purpose by forging connections with needs, stories, or causes that matter.
