GOTO Shop: Tuck Shop Trading Co. – City of Neighbourhoods

In Toronto, there is a huge discrepancy of which neighbourhood you reign from. Whether you come from Forest Hill or the Danforth – the difference is palpable. I knew at an early age that it definitely mattered which part of the grid you came from.

So what’s the best way to rep your block?

The Tuck Shop Trading Co. is a cozy, Canadian accessories line created by a fellow Torontonian Lyndsay Borschke. Her inspiration stems from her camps days in Algonquin Park and travelling to and from Toronto. She was inspired by her summers spent at camp, and splitting time between the city and cottage country.

She created a knitted toque line called City of Neighbourhoods, and I have to say they make the perfect companion for winter while bustling through an average snowstorm. Their design aesthetic is sticking to Canadian basics such as warm knits and furs, and creating a product that transcends well from city to country. Whether you rock your Danforth hat while eating a souvlaki or the High Park tuque while walking your dog, you’ll be sure to turn heads, so represent your hood and stay warm!

All designs and products are made in Toronto so stay warm and cozy in your tuques as you travel through the grid looking stylish, and very patriotic.

Knitwear can be purchased on their website and you can follow them on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Which toque will you rock for your neighbourhood?

Francesca Bartolomeo is a recent graduate from the University of Toronto with a double major in French and Italian Studies. Her love of languages stems from her interest in reading anything from fiction to fashion magazines and thus decided to pursue a career in Public Relations. Born in a large Italian family in which everyone wants to know your business (getting married or reproducing any offspring are the topics of choice) her affinity for style and food from helping her Nonna make cookies in the kitchen, to admiring her parent’s style when they went out, she always knew the three Fs - fashion, food and family - would affect the way in which she lives her life. She enjoys anything of the Celine variety, dancing in front of the mirror, eating copious amounts of gelato and of course travelling, especially to her Zia’s house in southern Italy.
