Devon & Lang is a Calgary underwear brand founded in 2019 by Tyler and Dayna McCombs, originally as OKE Apparel, and still presents itself as founder-run with a showroom in northeast Calgary and a warehouse in Mississauga. The company states that its products are designed in Calgary and manufactured in China from Lenzing TENCEL Modal, and it sells direct on its own Shopify store and through roughly 67 independent boutiques across Canada. No registry record for the legal entity could be located, so ownership rests on the vendor's own statements.

Factors

Ownership

CA 100%

The About page says the company was founded in Calgary in 2019 by Tyler and Dayna McCombs, and the site names no parent, investor, or acquirer. Corporations Canada returned zero results for Devon & Lang, Devon and Lang, and OKE Apparel, which points to an Alberta provincial corporation, and the Alberta Corporate Registry, OpenCorporates, and LinkedIn could not be checked from this session; the terms of service name the operator only as Devon & Lang, so the legal entity name is unconfirmed.

The FAQ states that products are designed in Calgary and manufactured in China, and the About page describes working with outside garment manufacturers from the start. No product line is described as made anywhere else.

The contact page gives a showroom and headquarters at 4712 13 St NE in Calgary, the FAQ places the fulfilment warehouse in Mississauga, and the careers link goes to Indeed Canada. Headcount is not published and the Indeed page could not be fetched, so the assumption is that all staff are in Canada.

CA 15% · EU 35% · other 50%

The fabric is 92 percent Lenzing TENCEL Modal and 8 percent spandex; Lenzing is an Austrian fibre maker, but the fibre is knit, dyed, and trimmed at the Chinese garment factories, so most material value is placed in OTHER with a share for the EU fibre. The CA share covers Calgary design and the Shopify storefront. The split is an estimate, since the vendor publishes no sourcing breakdown.
