1979: BORN IN THE NORTH

Where it all began... in the 1970s, Paul Hubner’s father led a team from the UK in setting up a Canadian manufacturing operation for private label product. Molds were developed and machinery was acquired for an injection molding factory. 

This was first setup on Nash Rd in Stoney Creek, Canada. The original team went on to various opportunities in the shoe industry, and Paul later created the Baffin brand for his new business; but the original injection moldings machines are still producing footwear today. The processes, compounds and other operations have evolved and improved, and we are proud to continue this Canadian Heritage.
