Kotn was founded by Benjamin Sehl, Mackenzie Yeates, and Rami Helali with a straightforward idea: make high-quality basics from better materials, manufactured responsibly. Headquartered in Toronto and now operating stores in Montreal and Vancouver, the brand has grown into a certified B Corp — meeting rigorous standards for social and environmental performance. Every piece is designed in Canada and crafted from 100% Egyptian cotton sourced directly from farming communities in the Nile Delta. Prices range from $10 to $375, covering everything from everyday tees to linen bedding.
What makes Kotn different
100% Egyptian cotton: Sourced directly from the Nile Delta, prized for its softness, strength, and breathability.
Ethical manufacturing: Kotn works directly with farming communities and manufacturers, cutting out unnecessary intermediaries and ensuring fair wages throughout the supply chain.
Schools with every purchase: A portion of every sale funds the construction of new schools in Egypt's cotton-growing regions — over a dozen built to date.
