About Harricana

Harricana is a Montreal brand, founded in 1994, that upcycles vintage furs and silk into coats, hats and scarves. Everything is made in its workshop in Verdun. Old fur coats and silk scarves that might have stayed in a closet get a second life as new, modern pieces.

It suits people who want warm winter accessories and like the idea of reusing materials rather than buying new. A hat or scarf from Harricana makes a meaningful gift for someone who cares about style and sustainability. If you have a family fur coat you no longer wear, ask about what can be done with it, and enjoy a warmer Montreal winter.
