While many are still enjoying the warm summer days, a new season is already well underway here at Faber.
For the past several weeks, our Québec City factory has been buzzing with activity. One by one, the snowshoes that will accompany you on this winter's adventures are taking shape in the hands of our team. Every rivet installed, every decking and binding assembled brings us closer to the season's first snowfall.
After months of preparation, we're excited to introduce the 2026–2027 Faber Snowshoe Collection.
Winter begins... long before the first snowfall!
Throughout the summer, our team has been working toward one goal: manufacturing snowshoes that are reliable, durable, and ready to take you wherever winter leads; whether that's groomed trails, backcountry forests, or deep powder.
For more than 150 years, Faber has been crafting snowshoes designed for Canada's toughest winter conditions. Today, every pair is still proudly manufactured using Canadian materials and generations of expertise that continue to evolve every year.
Snowshoes for every adventure
There's no single way to enjoy winter. That's why Faber offers a wide range of snowshoe models built around three distinct technologies, making it easy to find the perfect fit for your adventures.
Conventional decking snowshoes
The timeless classic.
For generations, conventional snowshoes have accompanied winter enthusiasts on their adventure. Their closed-frame design and durable decking, built to withstand the harshest winter conditions, allow a variety of models suited to everything from recreational hikes to the most demanding applications.
This is also the technology trusted by professionals who work outdoors throughout the winter. Whether in maple syrup production, forestry, mining, or other demanding environments, these snowshoes deliver the reliability and performance professionals count on.
Wing traction decking snowshoes
Our patented technology.
Exclusive to Faber, our wing traction decking snowshoes combine exceptional lightweight performance with impressive rigidity thanks to their open-deck design. Their angled traction wings provide outstanding grip, creating an additional crampon effect without adding extra weight.
Sliding step snowshoes
For those who love the feeling of gliding across the snow.
Imagine the freedom of a snowshoe... combined with the thrill of skiing. Our sliding step snowshoes are designed for rolling terrain, with removable and reversible skins that make ascents easier while allowing you to enjoy smooth, effortless descents. A unique way to experience winter, both on and off the trail.
More than just a pair of snowshoes
Choosing Faber also means supporting a company that puts people at the heart of everything it does.
Faber is a division of Groupe TAQ, an adapted enterprise based in Québec City that provides meaningful, stable, long-term employment to more than 250 people living with disabilities.
For us, building snowshoes is about much more than manufacturing a product. It's an opportunity for more than 250 skilled individuals to put their talents to work and contribute to a product recognized for its quality both in Canada and around the world.
At Faber, performance and inclusion go hand in hand.
Ready for a new season?
Winter may still be a little while away, but we're ready.
Our entire team is proud to introduce the 2026–2027 Faber Snowshoe Collection, and we can't wait to see our snowshoes accompany you on your next winter adventures.
See you on the trails!
