About Wuxly Movement
Wuxly. Hailing from Toronto, we are the innovators of the first animal-free and sustainable parka brand proudly manufactured in Canada. Incepted in 2012, Wuxly began when pro-football player, James Yurichuk, moved from the west coast to join the Toronto Argonauts. His task? Getting his girlfriend, Brazilian-born Daniela, her very first winter coat. In his search for the perfect parka, James could not find anything that aligned with his values around protecting the environment.
