From your morning commute to spontaneous weekend getaways, Northern Sun creates versatile, eco-conscious outerwear that fits seamlessly into your life. Because when it comes to living in Canada, your gear should be as adaptable as you are.
READ MORENorthern Sun was born in the late 1970s, inspired by the beauty of Canada’s winters and the adventurous spirit that comes with living here. But winter in Canada doesn’t play by the old rules anymore. One day it’s pouring rain, the next it’s icy winds cutting through the streets.
That unpredictability is a reminder that yesterday’s gear isn’t built for today’s Canada. That’s why we’ve spent the last three years redesigning Northern Sun—jackets built to adapt to whatever the season throws your way. Waterproof, windproof, and free of forever chemicals— they're made for when the forecast can’t be trusted.
We get it—life in Canada means unpredictability, and your gear should handle it all. That’s why our jackets are designed to transition seamlessly from the hustle of the city to the calm of a cabin getaway. And our lightweight down jacket, which folds into a travel neck pillow, isn’t just another piece of outerwear—it’s the perfect sidekick for all the moments in between.
At Northern Sun, sustainability isn’t a buzzword—it’s how we do business. Every product we make is certified by the Responsible Down Standard (RDS) and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 , ensuring safe, ethical, and sustainable practices from start to finish.
Our finishes are just as thoughtful. We use BIONIC-FINISH® ECO , a plant-based water-repellent treatment that’s free from PFAS and other forever chemicals , because what keeps you dry shouldn’t harm the planet.
But we didn’t stop there. We’ve visited our factories, met our suppliers, and tested our jackets to guarantee they’re built to handle your active lifestyle. It’s all part of our commitment to creating gear you can feel good about—inside and out.
Ever felt like you’re paying way too much for gear that only fits one purpose? Us too. Our founder, Jason, was tired of overpriced, overly specialized jackets that didn’t deliver the flexibility—or the peace of mind—he needed. That’s why we re-imagined Northern Sun: to give you outerwear that works hard, looks great, and aligns with your values. Crafted with responsibly sourced materials, certified ethical manufacturing, and eco-friendly finishes, our jackets deliver quality without compromise—for you and the planet.
Shop NOwHi, I’m Jason. I grew up in Winnipeg and have spent much of my adult life in Ontario and British Columbia, so I know firsthand how unpredictable Canadian weather can be. Rain one day, deep freeze the next—I’ve lived it all.
I’ve always been passionate about the outdoors and living an active lifestyle, but I’ve also been frustrated by inflation and the high cost of overly specialized gear. When the chance came to bring Northern Sun back to life, I jumped in—combining my love for Canada, the outdoors, retail, and design to create versatile, eco-friendly, outerwear built for everyday life in Canada.
