What is Lost Horizons?

Lost Horizons is a collection of handmade sweaters & apparel made from 100% pure New Zealand wool.

Our products are designed in Canada and made in partnership with local artisans in Nepal since 1993. 

We’re best-known for our sweaters, but Lost Horizons is so much more. We also make skirts, mittens, beanies, bags and other accessories.

Everything you need to stay warm in winter!

Our Story

Our company was founded in 1993 under the name Laundromat by Quebecer Francis Dubé in partnership with a family-owned knitting business in Kathmandu, Nepal. But the history of our brand goes back to 1991, when Francis traveled to Nepal for the first time.

Overcome by the handmade products he found, Francis purchased several items to sell to friends back home in Canada. Little did he know it was the beginning of a lifelong relationship with Nepal.

In 2020, we welcomed a new brand, Lost Horizons, to the Laundromat family, and in 2021 we merged brands under the name Lost Horizons.
