Cute store in Banff with loads of Canada and Calgary and Banff-themed items inside like hats, cups,…read moresocks, sweatshirts, stickers, you name it. Not everything is touristy - some of it is really good quality and they have a pretty large store with a bunch of outdoor items if you are in need of some warm weather gear that you didn't bring and the weather has changed. It's expensive - but the quality seems nice. My husband found a nice hat inside that he loves from Banff to remember our trip.

Yeah, the prices are high - but it's a boutique store and you're in a touristy town so what do you expect? They sell mens, womens, and kiddo outdoor gear ranging from your daily wear to an ultra warm and expensive parka in the $700 price range (no, that's not a typo). The quality appears second to none and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I had to google their company after returning home to learn the origin of their name. "Fjällräven means Arctic Fox in Swedish, honoring the small and highly adaptable predator that lives in the Swedish mountains under the harshest conditions." Cool, I totally dig this. A company committed to giving the best to their customers while protecting wildlife and nature - Yes, yes, I can get behind you Fjällräven. I am sooooooooooooo coming back here on my next visit to Banff and I think I will get myself one of their signature Kånken backpacks as a treat! But which one? They now have 9 styles from the Mini to the Big to the Laptop to the original Kånken to the Kids. There's some pretty neat history behind it as well - being created in the late 1970's to help alleviate the problem of an increasing number of kiddos with back/shoulder pain from over the shoulder bags which was the dominate fashion at the time.

Nightgowns, PJs, men's and women's shirts, etc etc. Mostly in lumberjack friendly patterns and colors like reds, blues, and greens. Some sheets and other housewares can be found here too. Prices are a little steeper but the quality of the flannel is high. It's so soft and cozy! You definitely get what you pay for. Shop isn't very big but it's packed with a lot of inventory. It fits in perfectly with the vibe of downtown Banff, for sure.

Clothes and bear spray. And they do have a good selection of colder weather clothing. Lots of hoodies, and jackets. Vests and beanies. The staff were perfectly helpful and distant when I wanted them to be. The store was clean and well kept, and also well lit. The items here were not nearly as plentiful as I had expected and while everyone in town carries North Face, I was surprised that some of the stores nearby actually had stuff these guys didn't. I'm sure that's by design and I like it. But yea, this store is legit and I liked it.
