Kid Brother was started by Carol Pitre, a graphic designer and mother of two boys. Disappointed by traditional boys clothing — which was either unimaginative, or overpriced — Carol decided to take matters into her own hands. She debuted her spring line of boys clothing at the 2004 Spring One of a Kind Show. Each piece is designed and handmade in Canada, using top quality fabrics and materials.

My mother sewed, and I was fascinated by the process from an early age. I watched her for hours and tried to imitate her and bugged her to help me make things. I think she finally taught me to use her sewing machine (which I now have and still use occasionally) so that she could get a little peace. I've been sewing ever since.
