What to know about Oak + Fort
Muted neutrals, oversized cuts
The range runs on a narrow palette of neutrals and loose shapes: oversized blazers, wide-leg trousers, relaxed shirting and the knitwear it's best known for.
Menswear is one line among many
Started as minimalist womenswear in 2010, it now spans men's, accessories and home goods, so the men's assortment is a slice of a broader lifestyle offer.
Restructuring while still trading
The company entered CCAA creditor protection in June 2025 owing over $25 million, blaming US tariffs and fast store growth; it's shrinking its store count and leaning on e-commerce.

Brand facts
Oak + Fort is a Vancouver-based label founded in 2010 by Min Gyoung (Jenny) Kang, selling minimalist womenswear, menswear, accessories and home goods in muted neutrals, with oversized blazers, wide-leg trousers, knitwear and relaxed shirting as staples. It sells through its own retail network across Canada and the United States plus e-commerce. In June 2025 the company obtained creditor protection under Canada's CCAA, with KSV Restructuring as monitor and more than $25 million owed to creditors; it blamed US tariffs and rapid store expansion, and continues trading while restructuring around fewer stores and stronger e-commerce.
