BEDI: Always Made in Canada

Our Mission: To craft high-quality, sustainable products in Canada from existing materials.

At BEDI, we make all our products locally. Our winter coats, bags, and loungewear are all ethically made in Canada in small batches. 

As Canadians, we understand the importance of a warm winter coat! We are a small team, and our first-hand experience with winter helps us to craft the highest-quality, warm winter coats. Our winter coats are made here in Montreal, Quebec, and are rated to -30°C/-22°F. Thoughtful details such as the high neck, large hood, storm cuffs and lined pockets are all evidence of the quality and care that goes into our coats. 

We use YKK zippers that are made in Canada, and our metal BEDI logo is also made locally here in Quebec. The glove-holder detail on the sleeve is made from a car seatbelt salvaged from a Montreal scrapyard, and the rubber slogan patch is also made locally. 

We are proud to offer winter coats and bags that are made in Canada, using high-quality materials that will last. Our commitment to making our products locally allows us to provide the highest-quality, which in turn, allows us to offer our Lifetime Guarantee on all our winter coats and bags.

Ethically Made in Canada

Every product from BEDI is ethically made in small batches in Canada. Why is this so important to us? Not only does local manufacturing allow us to guarantee the highest quality products, it also means we can guarantee that everyone who works on BEDI products is paid a living wage and has a safe working environment. BEDI's Founder, Inder, is very involved in the production process, and can often be found in the atelier.

Our flagship store is located in Montréal's charming Mile End neighbourhood.

Everything in our shop has been designed with sustainability at the forefront. From the hanging seat belt installation that hold our coats, to our custom hooks, all materials were sourced locally within Québec. The space is ultimately a visual expression of our philosophy: One day everything new will come from something old.

Local Production

BEDI represents my path returning to local production in Canada with a focus on slow fashion. It was born in the scrapyards of Quebec where I started pulling out landfill materials to work into our designs. The collection has evolved to include ECONYL® (Italian yarn regenerated from discarded fish nets), DESSERTO® (plant based leather made from cactus leaves), upcycled leather from Italy, and sustainably grown cotton from the U.S.

Thank you for following us in our journey in balancing art and cleaning up our planet, we are constantly innovating to take sustainability to another level and hopefully inspire others to do the same.
