TORONTO, ON, Sept. 22, 2023 /CNW/ - September 22, 2023— Hudson's Bay, Canada's premier destination for style and quality, is excited to announce the arrival of three exclusive SOREL Footwear pop-up shops at Hudson's Bay flagship locations in Vancouver, Montreal and at Yorkdale in Toronto—all set to open September 22, 2023, and run through January 2024.
Spanning 500-800 square feet, each pop-up reflects the SOREL brand ethos: an alchemy of quality craftsmanship and its emblematic orange hue. These shops showcase a range of signature footwear styles from SOREL, including waterproof boots in leather and nylon to timeless silhouettes crafted with suede, wool and shearling, catering to both women and kids, with an adjacent assortment of men's styles.
The crown jewel of the pop-up is the latest fall collection from SOREL which is an ode to the time-tested Caribou™ boot. It's here that the SOREL legacy of impeccable craftsmanship dovetails with cutting-edge design. Engineered for resilience, the Caribou™ collection stands as a testament to warmth, comfort, and dependable traction, even amidst the harshest winter conditions.
"SOREL is proud to be partnering with Hudson's Bay this season, to bring to life the collection inspired by our Caribou™ icon," says Natalie Hayes, SOREL VP Global Brand Marketing. "Infusing our seasonal colour of optimized orange in an unexpected way, the installations are designed to bring our product to life in an exciting way for the consumer to experience this fall and winter."
"Hudson's Bay knows Canadian winters, and our customers trust us to deliver quality footwear that doesn't sacrifice on style," says Leith Sinker, SVP Footwear, Beauty and Centre Core, Hudson's Bay. SOREL delivers a stellar selection for the whole family, and these pop-ups create a fun and engaging showcase to explore their newest collections."
