We run Ambler as a husband & wife and our two boys help us out with design ideas and ruthless product testing. We live in Nelson, British Columbia and we pull inspiration from our beautiful surroundings and eclectic, mountain community.
Ambler began in the fall of 1995 when Peter Ambler sewed a few styles of handmade fleece hats and sold them to his friends. Today, our intent remains the same - to make quality products for our friends to enjoy. We're focused on fit, function and design with our friends in mind...whether we've met them yet or not.
We are rooted in collaboration, adventure and a celebration of the unique. But we want to do more than just make stuff to sell. Our goal is to make a difference in the lives of the people we work with - from the makers to the wearers and everyone in between through the decisions we make as a company and a family.
We have been making handmade toques in Nepal since 2003. The handmade journey from raw wool to finished product relies on hundreds of people along the supply chain; spinning & dyeing yarn, knitting, felting, sewing, packaging and many other supporting roles. We have been working with the same production partners in Nepal since we started and we are very grateful for their commitment to their staff, contractors and local economy.
By producing the yarn, tags, labels and even the cardboard boxes in Nepal we can contribute more of our production dollars to the local economy there. We believe that the best way to improve the living conditions and lives of the people within the developing world is through fair trade.
When you choose to buy one of our handmade products you are directly contributing to improve the lives of the people we work with in Nepal. Thank you for joining us on the handmade journey and making a difference.
