About Minuit moins cinq

Minuit moins cinq is a small fashion label that works with upcycled textiles. In its workshop in Petit-Saguenay, the team sews toques, banana bags and sweatshirts from fabric that gets a second life.

This brand suits people who care about waste and like pieces with a bit of character, since upcycled fabric makes each item a little different. A toque or a banana bag is an easy gift for a hiker or a festival goer. Petit-Saguenay sits along the Saguenay fjord, so buying here also supports a maker far from the big city.
