He was there for you when you scraped your knee falling off your bike, he watched every hockey game you played like it was game seven, he used his incredibly dull "dad" humour in an attempt to cheer you up when you had a bad day. Here's to fathers everywhere. Roots is happy to introduce some new and exciting lines that will be a perfect fit for the father who has fit so perfectly into your life.

More than Socks

Cotton Made in Africa


Roots is now a proud supporter of the Cotton Made in Africa (CMAI) program.

The organization is heavily involved in the community through school and infrastucture projects.
