Behind a Bloor Street West storefront, Toronto Hockey Repair cuts and sews custom goal pads, catch gloves, blockers, arm and chest protectors and shin pads under its THR, Terminater, Arcadi and Pro Guard labels, in clarino leather and heavy duty tufflon nylon, with calf protectors and knee cradles standard and a choice of toe buckles or a toe bridge lace system.

HTS 9506.99.25Hockey sticks and equipment50% since Aug 22, 2026
Goal pads, catchers, blockers, chest and arm protectors and shin pads are ice hockey equipment other than balls and skates, HTS 9506.99.25 on the CBP Section 338 list, so every custom pad Toronto Hockey Repair sews on Bloor Street and ships to an American goalie or dealer now carries a 50% duty on top of the price, in effect since August 22, 2026. Its repair price list is quoted in US funds and it says it serves “individual players, hockey teams and dealers throughout Canada and the United States”, so the duty lands on an established cross-border trade rather than an occasional order.Source: content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

In their own words

  • There is a decline in wooden hockey sticks. We do sell a fair amount, but mostly to beer league goalies.

    Fiorenzo Arcadi of Toronto Hockey Repair, quoted by Reuters · ca.finance.yahoo.com, Jul 21, 2026

    Reached by Reuters the day after the 50% tariff on Canadian hockey gear was announced, the shop’s Fiorenzo Arcadi said wooden stick demand had already narrowed to recreational players; the same article describes his shop as a retail and repair business that also manufactures custom ice hockey equipment, which is the gear the tariff list covers.

Made in Canada

The gear is built where it is sold: “Since 1981 Toronto Hockey Repair has specialized in the repair and custom manufacture of hockey gloves and equipment” at 1592 Bloor Street West, and the shop says “We manufacture and stock a wide range of high quality hockey equipment under the THR, Terminater, Arcadi and ProGuard labels.”

On the tariff list

  • HTS 9506.99.25 · Ice-hockey and field-hockey articles and equipment, except balls and skates, and parts and accessories thereof · 50% since Aug 22, 2026

    The shop’s own custom equipment page says “Toronto Hockey repair manufactures goal pads under the “THR” and “Terminater” labels. All of our goal pads are lightweight and made from the highest quality clarino leather and heavy duty tufflon nylon”, and its home page adds “We produce custom made goal equipment and manufacture goal pads, catchers, blockers, arm and chest protectors and shin pads under the THR, Terminator, Arcadi and Pro Guard labels.” Goal pads, catchers and blockers are ice-hockey equipment other than balls and skates, which is what HTS 9506.99.25 covers on the CBP Section 338 list.

Rates are the additional US duty under Section 338. About the tariffs
