The designer For Cindy Cantin, founder and designer of CANTIN bags, objects carry culture, identity and traditions. His training in art and design, his marked interest in handcrafted objects as well as his experience with indigenous communities inspired him to create products made from felt.

Products carrying traditions Nothing is created randomly; everything that is part of design has its functionality, making objects classic, durable and timeless. CANTIN is inspired by the raw materials of felt and leather and plays with the structure and balance of shapes to design unique and quality products. An important material in the daily life of our ancestors, felt, this symbol of collective memory of Nordic cultures, instinctively becomes his favorite material. Formerly used in the manufacture of stockings, soles, jackets and toques, this traditional Quebec material is today used by CANTIN to offer natural protection to modern objects such as iPhones, iPads and laptops. Felt products bring back sweet memories of childhood in people Cindy meets. Made from merino wool or recycled fibers, the felt used in its creations is renewable, durable, water-resistant and shock-absorbing. |

The felt CANTIN products are made with very high quality natural wool felt. Dense, strong and thick, this durable material is sturdy and maintains its original shape, while being soft enough to hold your electronic accessories. An important material in the material life of Quebecers of yesteryear, felt is waterproof, absorbs shock, acts as a thermal insulator and produces no static electricity. It is easily cleaned with a sponge and mild soap. Repeated and excessive rubbing should be avoided. |
