September 2020 Issue
Tofino. A small district on the western coast of Canada that is known for its breathtaking scenery, including its sandy beaches, lakes, inlets and ancient rainforest. What makes Tofino extra special is the unique and sustainable brands that have emerged from the community. Tofino Towel Co. is one of these brands.
With its luxury lifestyle products designed in British Columbia, Tofino Towel Co. encourages individuals far and wide to slow down, be present, and enjoy the simplicities of life. Whether it be a cozy fall evening at home or an outdoor adventure to the beach or on a hike, the company aims to help people live outside and love inside.
At Red Brick Emporium [RBE] we believe a perfect hike ends in a picnic, the best night-in involves snuggling in a fuzzy blanket, and the ideal morning starts curled up in bed with tea. Not only does Tofino Towel Co. offer this, but the company also promotes the long-term sustainability of our planet and people. All Tofino towels, blankets, robes, dresses, ponchos, and scarves contain materials sourced from fair-trade artisan makers from around the globe. As well, the organization donates 1% of all profits to preserving Canada’s dreamlike oceans and precious wildlife, donates 1% of its products to people in need, and all employees donate 1% of their time to the protection of Canadian oceans, coastlines and marine wildlife.
How can you support such incredible causes through living your best life? Here are some ideas:

It is perfect for picnics at the beach or even just as a decorative bed throw. Available in harbour blue and stone grey. Our favourite picnic spot is the gorgeous Stewart Park located in downtown Perth, Ontario. The added benefit of having your picnic here is being able to stop by RBE afterwards as were just a few steps away!
Is layout in the sun and relaxing your ideal day, whether it be in the yard, by the pool, or at the beach? If so, one of our Turkish Towels will be perfect for you as they are highly absorbent and fast drying! If you're looking for the perfect location, we recommend heading down to Picton Sandbanks or renting a boat to cruise along the Rideau Canal.
Aside from embracing the warm days of summer, there's nothing that evokes happiness more than lounging carefree in a comfy robe! The Serene Kimono is pure, simple, and stylish with its finely-woven breathable fabric. Add it to your bohemian style to take a walk and visit all the incredible shops in Perth or wear it while relaxing with a hot cup of coffee on your deck at home.
Looking for another way to amp up your style? The Lily Beach Robe is perfect for the beach, the pool, or for weekend lounging as its highly absorbent and fast drying. You can also dress it up with a cute pair of boots and head for a breezy summer stroll.
