A trip to Toronto isn’t complete until you’ve shopped at the iconic Canadian Hudson’s Bay. Dating all the way back to 1670, when it was first incorporated as The Governor and Company of Adventurers of England Trading, into Hudson’s Bay. Originally known for fur trading, ‘The Bay’ has always played a central role in Canada’s history. Currently, this Canadian department store shares its flagship building with Saks 5th Avenue between Yonge and Bay Street.

Here are a few of the things you can find when you shop at The Hudson’s Bay:

Womens, Mens, and Kids Clothing

The Bay features a wide array of designers and brand names for all ages and sizes. From classic pieces to unique pop-up displays from local designers, shoppers will discover something for every taste, need and style. There’s almost always an excellent sale happening in at least one of the departments.

Shoes

Home to Canada’s largest shoe department, the Hudson’s Bay doesn’t disappoint avid shoe lovers. From the fantastical creations of Sophia Webster to the ultra-comfortable fit of Rockport, a shoe for every occasion can be found.

Accessories

The easiest way to update your look while traveling is to add an accessory or two. Find watches, jewelry, scarves, handbags and more throughout the department store. If you’re looking for something distinctly Canadian to commemorate your trip, ask one of their helpful associates.
