Is it wishful thinking to want garments that look good, do good and withstand the elements? Not when you have Nau.

The triple threat clothier out of Portland is getting big buzz for its stylish designs fit for city streets and ski hills, and its business practices. Utilizing organic and recycled fabrics, Nau meets strict green standards and gives back, with two per cent of every purchase going to a social or environmental cause of your choosing.

We love its Modus Trench ($425) for its fresh, modern detailing, and the Down Vest ($145) made urban with an asymmetrical zipper and diagonal baffles.

The label is still under the radar in Canada, so rest assured you'll be trend setting and so very now.
