Kanati Clothing Company

Kanati Clothing Company is a privately held fashion lifestyle company. The line made its fashion debut with a men's sportswear collection for the spring 2009 season. The Canadian menswear label, manufacturer and retailer is based in Toronto, Ontario. The company launched its flagship retail location in Waterloo, Ontario in 2014. The Kanati Co. brand is distributed in North America, United Kingdom, Europe and Japan through GSG Apparel, Inc.

The Kanati Clothing Company was formed in July 2009 in Toronto, Ontario. Kanati Co. quickly became a celebrity favorite and in 2012 entered into a new multi-year international distribution arrangement. The company gained notoriety as a pioneer in the fashion industry by creating an Aboriginal-influenced premium lifestyle band which had not yet been seen before. The brand was popularized in the U.S by its appearance in numerous music videos from artists like Drag-On of Ruff Ryders Entertainment, Joey Stylez, Meek Mill, Ja Rule and other popular musicians like Sean P from the group YoungBloodZ. The label was seen on music group Winnipeg's Most in the Maclean's Magazine "Straight Outta Winnipeg" feature as well as on CBC Television's Aboriginal series 8th Fire hosted by Wab kinew.

In 2014 the brand launched a made-on-demand cut and sew program for independent small to medium-sized private labels. The program features the Signature Young line by Curtis Young who is the son of musician and businessman Dr. Dre. The made-on-demand program operates on a membership basis and eliminates a majority of the costs associated with maintaining a clothing company. The system allows labels to order as little as one item at a time and enables designers to get premium cut and sew as opposed to using traditional third-party blank garments.
