This spring HAVEN is proud to introduce our partnership with GORE-TEX, initially utilizing their INFINIUM™ fabric technology on a range of utilitarian garments. Our journey with GORE-TEX is the culmination of countless discussions and years of research and development to ensure the garments meet both our own and GORE-TEX’s rigorous standards of quality, functionality and design.

We caught up with Colin in Vancouver, to learn more about Heia Studio, the roots of his design philosophy and how both travel and his local environment inspires his practice.

For Fall / Winter 2021 we debut the HAVEN footwear program, with the goal of building footwear that combines luxury level craftsmanship with technical performance to provide exceptional comfort, quality, and utility.

With our FW21 collection we continue to sharpen our focus on adaptability and performance. This season we made significant advancements, from material innovation, performance technologies, garment construction and patterning to improved and more transparent production processes and supply chains.

For Fall / Winter 2020 we work alongside Canadian boot maker Viberg to create two custom silhouettes in premium Horween leather: the Officer Derby and Service Boot.
