OUR STORY: DEFINING COLD-CLIMATE PERFORMANCE SINCE DAY ONE
At Baffin, we specialize in creating technically advanced footwear and apparel engineered to perform in the most challenging cold climates. From icy trails to demanding winter expeditions, our products are designed to keep you warm, dry and confident in the face of nature’s extremes. Cold is our calling, and performance is our promise.
OUR HERITAGE
Baffin was founded in 1979 by the Hubner family in Stoney Creek, Ontario. With a passion for innovation and an uncompromising dedication to quality, the Hubners built Baffin into a trusted name in cold-climate footwear. Rooted in Canadian Winters and with a deep respect for the natural world, the brand established a reputation for delivering warmth, comfort and durability when it matters most.
In 2018, Baffin joined Canada Goose, marking an important chapter in the brand’s growth and helping further strengthen Baffin’s position in cold-climate performance.
In 2026, Baffin began its next chapter as part of L.P. Royer inc., a Canadian, family-owned footwear company with more than 90 years of expertise in technical footwear. With a shared commitment to Canadian craftsmanship, innovation and performance, Baffin continues to build on the foundation established in 1979 while remaining focused on what has always defined the brand: creating purpose-built products for life in the cold.
WHAT DRIVES US
We don’t just design for the cold—we live it. At Baffin, our philosophy of Real-World Testing™ ensures that our products are tested in the environments and conditions for which they are designed. From our Polar Rated boots to versatile three-season footwear, every piece is crafted with precision, using advanced materials and technology to deliver protection and performance in the field.
INNOVATION MEETS TRADITION
With more than 45 years of expertise, we remain focused on advancing cold-climate performance. Our proprietary technologies, including B-Tek™ insulation, IceBite™ slip-resistance compound and Arctic Rubber, are developed to deliver warmth, traction and protection across a range of environments and conditions.
While we continue to evolve through innovation, we remain grounded in the craftsmanship, dependability and Canadian heritage that have shaped Baffin since 1979.
OUR COMMITMENT
At Baffin, we believe in empowering our community to embrace the cold with confidence. Whether you’re embarking on a polar expedition, tackling an early spring hike or simply navigating Winter’s challenges, we are dedicated to equipping you for every adventure in the cold.
