Totem Outdoor Outfitters is a long-standing, family-friendly business that has been operating for more than five decades. In our store, you can find a wide range of high-quality new and used outdoor equipment, including canoes, kayaks, cross country skis, snowshoes, and more.

Additionally, we provide affordable services such as skate sharpening, ski and snowboard waxing, heat molding for skates, and repairs for damaged items.

Through our Evaluation Center, you can trade in your old gear and receive 50% of the item's sale value, which you can then use towards purchasing new or gently used equipment (some restrictions apply).
What makes us even more unique is our rapid Rewards program! For any regular-priced item priced above $20.00, you'll earn points that will be stored in your account and can be used to save you money on future purchases.
At Totem, we take pride in being a friendly, family-owned business with a team of charismatic and helpful staff who do not work on commission. We are here solely to assist you!

To commemorate Totem's 50th anniversary, we made the decision to introduce a new logo. We opted for this logo due to its portrayal of family values and its connection to Totem Outfitters in Calgary, which had an eagle as its logo. Keeping this in mind, we felt that the Eskimo symbol needed a partner for life, just like wolves mate for life, work as a team in family units, protect their offspring, and possess strong communication skills to stay together. Our aim at Totem is to be a store that prioritizes family, and we view our staff and customers as part of our extended family. The wolf symbol holds significant meaning for our store and the customers we serve, as it symbolizes family. If you observe closely, you will notice that the wolf's neck features the tail of a killer whale, while the ear has the eye of an eagle. Above the whale's tail, you can spot a raven's beak. Ravens are seen as symbols of wisdom and change. We believe that in order to achieve success, it is vital to adapt to change. Totem has consistently embraced change in the past, and we will continue to do so in the future.

To commemorate Totem's 50th Anniversary, they are celebrating extraordinary individuals who have left a significant mark. One such person is Vance Theoret, an artist renowned for his awe-inspiring stone bear carvings. Vance's sculptures are revered for their meticulous craftsmanship and their ability to elicit emotions of strength, untamed wilderness, and a deep affinity with the natural world. Totem encourages you to explore Vance's website to delve into his artistic journey and creative approach. Totem conveys appreciation for Vance's invaluable contributions and recognize his exceptional talent as a wellspring of inspiration.
