about
manifesto
Through crocheting and knitting we have
developed into a quality brand that can be
enjoyed on the hill, after the surf, over the
wake, and in the city. We promote a healthy
lifestyle and encourage our customers to
live one.
about the product
RK was designed with riders in mind. All of our products are extremely comfortable, customizable and oh so unique. We are passionate about our products and work hard to maintain a high level of quality in all our hand-made knits. We believe everyone has their own story, so our products are created to complement your own personal style. RK is conscious of the problems with outsourcing. That is why all our products are manufactured in Canada, to promote local businesses and maintain high quality products.
