Y2K-Era Tough Duck Hooded Work Jacket – Made in Canada (Size XL)
Industrial Strength. Northern Spirit.

Crafted in the mid-2000s by Winnipeg Pants & Sportswear MFG. LTD., this vintage Tough Duck jacket is a purebred piece of Canadian workwear heritage. Made between 2005 and 2010, during the height of North American industrial resilience, it carries the unmistakable grit of its time—when garments weren’t just worn, they were relied on.

Built from heavyweight 100% cotton duck canvas and insulated with a quilted polyester lining, this jacket was engineered for endurance in cold, demanding environments. The hooded silhouette, ribbed cuffs and waistband, and sturdy brass zipper all speak to functionality honed through decades of utility wear design.

A union-made tag from the early UNITE HERE! Canada days authenticates its origin in a time when Canadian manufacturing still s with pride. The iconic Tough Duck eagle-eye label seals it with character—unapologetically tough, quietly iconic.
