Summary

Alex Tilley is a Canadian business icon whose self-proclaimed “ persnicketiness” for quality earned him a loyal following in the highly competitive world of outdoor and travel clothing. He founded Tilley Endurables and became internationally famous for the crown of his creations: a Canadian-made cotton hat sold with a lifetime guarantee. Alex Tilley: An Endurable Legacy is the story of one man’ s headstrong pursuit of excellence. It wasn’ t always easy. Alex struggled in school, hindered by a brain injury and learning disability. He was fired from several jobs and had no particular passion to drive him forward. His first business venture went bankrupt. Yet he persisted and, in his thirties, finally enjoyed moderate success in the art rental business. He invented his Tilley hat as a hobby in his forties, never thinking that it would turn him into a successful entrepreneur and manufacturer. By the late 1980s, Tilley hats became world famous in the fiercely competitive outdoor fashion industry and graced the heads of Prince Phillip, Sir Edmund Hillary and even of Canadian soldiers during the Gulf War.
