Now that the temperature is getting tolerable, this summer’s outdoor adventures–be they northern canoeing expeditions or lakeside leisure time–are finally on the horizon for the city’s wilderness-starved population. And beloved Toronto label Muttonhead, after years of hawking consciously made Canadiana gear online and in select boutiques, opened its first flagship on Roncesvalles last weekend. Unlike dorky camping outfits (zip-off cargo pants, anyone?), the pieces from Muttonhead’s new collection, dubbed The Wanderer, will appeal to rustic style lovers and those looking for cool, cozy basics for weekend getaways to cabins, tents, or sleeping hammocks. All pieces are unisex, to make clothes-swapping among friends all the more convenient.
Here, the surprisingly stylish items we can’t wait to sport campfire-side.
For evenings under the stars, this black quilted dress shirt is super cozy while maintaining a casually chic lumberjack vibe, and is made from double-layered quilted jersey. $176
This 100% cotton short-sleeved dress shirt is comfortable enough to pass as casually carefree, but just dressy enough to get away with looking put-together. $166
The reversible top is making a comeback, and this Drifter Long Sleeve is fully capable of turning inside out if you happen to spill some hot cocoa or ketchup. It's also available in a T-shirt. $97
Not only will this retro 5 panel hat protect your face from the sun, it's punchy enough to become a statement wilderness accessory. It also comes in a lightweight mesh material and quilted cotton. $55
This pair of bright-hued Roamer Shorts are the perfect mid-thigh length for both guys and girls. And they're made from a light-weight cotton twill, so we bet they'd dry quickly after an impromptu dip. $80
