When packing for a stay at Free Spirit Spheres – a hotel in Vancouver Island made up of floating spheres – keep your clothing light and free as well. Bring comfortable pieces from a few of Canada’s leading eco-designers, like Nicole Bridger, Thieves, Bazant, Manitobah and Preloved.

Preloved Sylvie Snood
This soft, slouchy cowl drapes beautifully around the face to keep you warm and cozy through chilly nights. Preloved garments are entirely crafted from vintage fabrics – this one from two reclaimed wool sweaters – making each piece truly one-of-a-kind. It’s also reversible.
$19.50, Preloved 

Nicole Bridger Longing Cape
This cozy cape by Canadian eco-designer Nicole Bridger is the perfect way to stay warm in your sphere. The appeal of this 100% organic wool cape is all about the sculpting and draping, techniques Bridger perfected while working at Vivienne Westwood in London.
On sale for $231, Nicole Bridger 

Bazant Waterfall Earrings
Echo the spherical theme of the hotel with these hand cut and polished sterling silver dangle earrings with a nice brushed finish. Handcrafted from recycled sterling silver by ethical jeweller Lara Bazant in Toronto’s Distillery Historic District.

Manitobah Deerskin Mukluks
Keep your feet toasty at night with these Mukluks, based on a traditional Canadian style of footwear. Each pair conforms naturally to the shape of each wearer’s foot, providing an age-old comfort you can call your own. The vibram sole option make them a bit more suitable for activities like hikes in the woods.
