Club Monaco started in Toronto in 1985, founded by Joe Mimran, Saul Mimran and Alfred Sung around the idea of "better basics" — clean, well-detailed wardrobe staples at accessible prices. Ralph Lauren owned the label from 1999 until selling it to private equity firm Regent L.P. in 2021. A 2024 reset moved quality back upmarket, reviving Italian wool outerwear, cashmere knitwear, silk dressing and Nineties-minimalist suiting in mostly neutral palettes. Its Canadian store count has shrunk, though a Toronto Eaton Centre location returns in September 2026.
