Nobody remembers authorizing the bears.
They appeared sometime Tuesday.
At first there were three. Then seven. By Thursday they had begun communicating in short, cryptic messages.
“HI.”
“SUP!”

Do not engage with the blue one.
This one-of-one Kimonoir is made from a wonderfully peculiar vintage quilt populated by an unauthorized number of bears, speech bubbles, hearts and other communications currently under investigation.
The warm biscuit background is quilted in a soft grid, while bears in rust, brown, blue, grey and white wander across the entire coat — front, back and sleeves. Every angle reveals another face, another heart, another tiny piece of evidence.
The cut is compact and easy: an open front, gently structured collar, straight sleeves and two large patch pockets incorporated directly into the original quilt design. The shorter length gives all that vintage-quilt coziness a surprisingly modern little-jacket silhouette.
Measurements: approximately 21" wide laid flat × 28" long.
This is one of our smaller Kimonoir coats. Please compare the garment measurements with a favourite jacket for your preferred amount of ease.
Made in Canada from reclaimed vintage home textiles.
One of one.
This garment remains under investigation.
