About


a silver day is a grey one that turns. if you're ready for it. the early alarm, the drive, the waiting around. then the sun breaks and you go. 

it started with a complaint about hems

the hem

almost every sweatshirt i've owned rode up. front or back, a little more each hour, until the rib at the bottom sat somewhere it was never meant to. you stop noticing you're tugging at it.

i wasn't in the clothing business. as a chartered accountant, i'd spent my whole career crunching numbers on spreadsheets, always keeping a close eye on what people were wearing. i'd worn enough sweatshirts to know what i wanted this one to do, and as time passed and that work stayed the same, i knew i had to make it. 

this one sits lower through the body. the rib hangs instead of grips. it's a small thing and it's most of why i made it.

the fabric

380 gsm cotton french terry. heavier than most, and more expensive than the alternatives, which is probably why you don't see it used more often. it softens as you wear it.

everything silverdays makes is 100% cotton. that's the one rule.

made here

designed and sewn in Canada. it costs more. regardless, it's important to be able feel, see, and touch, the products i am making.

one piece, for now

one hoodie. more coming, and you'll see them here first.
