The Roots XL anniversary collection celebrates the brand's 40th birthday. The collection is made in Canada and is a true symbol of quality and comfort. Roots has always been known for creating well-made and comfy loungewear pieces and this celebratory collection is no exception.
Inspired by the brand's heritage, the Roots XL anniversary collection is made up of sweatshirts, sweatpants and cotton shorts that are custom-designed by Roots creative director Adrian Aitchenson. The collection's sweatshirt pieces boast understated clothing labels and logo-adorned tags while its bottoms feature a topographic print in black and white.
This anniversary collection is constructed from the finest materials including a custom yarn that was conceived at an Onatrio-based mill. The textile is warm yet lightweight, making it perfect for athleticwear that can be worn in cooler months.
