When the leaves start to fall and the temperatures start to drop below zero, there’s no article of clothing that’s as omnipresent as the flannel shirt. They're warm, soft and comfortable yet rustic and rugged all at once.
Flannel can be traced back to the 17th century, where farmers wore flannel shirts to protect themselves from the elements. This tradition has continued to grow in popularity most likely due to flannel’s longevity, affordability and warmth, making it the perfect attire for Alberta farmers.
