I went to a famous "Canadian" clothing company (rhymes with Boots) website to buy a sweater for my mother. Literally the most frustrating shopping experience. 3 different size measurements for every item. Why? She is an elderly woman. Its a woman's sweater. I just need one size. Then they didn't have any availability for what I wanted or the ability to find similar items possibly in stock. I went to Reddit. Looked for alternatives. Saw MBW. Went to the website. Found a blue hoodie. Showed my mom. Bought it. It will arrive next week. I spent more money on that sweater than what the other store was charging but I was happy to do it. MBW deserved the sale. It was easy. I had a great time looking at colors with my mom. And it obviously bothered me enough to leave this review. So great job MBW. Looking forward to getting the sweater next week. --Just a Canadian trying to buy a sweater for his mom. read more

3.5 stars. There are two schools of shopping in Muskoka: sophisticated home décor and local art, and sweats. Seriously, sweat shops (the aboveboard, legal kind) are *everywhere* in the Lakes Region, all selling hoodies, pants, hats, and tees emblazoned with "Muskoka". Competition is fierce. I fall into the home décor/local art school of shoppers, but of all the places you could pick up your unmistakably "Muskoka" gear, MBW has to be the best. And not because the clothes are higher-quality (they do boast soft lining and a perfect weight), but because all the clothes are Ontario-made -- the only sweats you can find that are made in Canada. And not just made in Canada, but made right in Muskoka. MBW's philosophy is: if it *says* "Muskoka", shouldn't it at least be made here? I like that business model. Truthfully, tho MBW clothes aren't necessarily my style (sweatpants with bear paw prints on the booty remind me of high school cheerleaders), but I like the idea of supporting my home-away-from-home's local economy. Maybe the cat-sitter would like a pair of bear paw print booty sweats as a thank-you... read more
