5 Must-Buy Pieces From Roots’ End-of-Season Sale
End-of-season sales are the perfect opportunity to stock up on quality basics rather than impulse buys (trust us, we’ve all been there).
Roots has long mastered the art of blending cabin-core comfort with chic everyday style, creating Canadian staples that outlast seasonal trends. Whether you’re refreshing your summer wardrobe or getting a head start on transitional dressing, these are five standout finds that deserve a spot in your shopping cart.
Isla Cotton Gauze Shirt Dress, $90
Equal parts beach cover-up and weekend brunch attire, this airy shirt dress is the kind of piece you’ll reach for on repeat. Throw it over a swimsuit at the cottage, then swap in a pair of strap-sandals for dinner on the patio.
Summer Cloud Cardigan, $75
Canadian summers are unpredictable at best, which is exactly why a lightweight cardigan earns its place in every closet. Keep it draped over your office chair to save you from overzealous air conditioning, or toss it in your purse before heading out for a night in the city.
Riley Barn Jacket, $120
The barn jacket isn’t going anywhere—and we’re not mad about it. This structured style instantly makes jeans and tee feel more intentional.
Athletics Department Sweatshort, $45
There’s something deeply satisfying about finding loungewear that looks good even outside the house. These soft shorts are made for slow cottage mornings, coffee runs and lazy afternoons.
Floral Jacquard Tote, $40
A great summer tote should hold everything from sunscreen to your favourite farmers’ market finds—and this one does exactly that. The textured floral fabric gives a subtle summer kiss while remaining neutral enough to pair with just about every outfit in your closet.
