Men and Women

O’Connors

One could argue that a local fashion retailer that’s been in the city for more than 50 years understands the needs of Calgarians pretty well. This is especially true when it comes to winter coats. O’Connors carries high-end brands for both men and women in its split boutique. Guys, look for brands like Ted Baker, Hugo Boss and Canali. Ladies, browse the selection of MaxMara, Eileen Fisher, and Judith & Charles amongst many others.

Hudson’s Bay

Canada’s iconic department store has stuck around for hundreds of years because it knows its audience – especially in the winter. The Bay’s selection of winter coats appeals to Canadians who prefer to keep warm and look nice when it’s cold, and we’re guessing that’s most of them. Look for your classic department store brands like Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Windsmoor.
