About Us

How we started

Lifestyle Hobbies was started by us, Zorik and Javier. We met over 20 years ago at the University of Toronto and connected right away. Unlike with most classmates, we stayed in touch over the years, even as life took us in different directions.

Things got busy with corporate careers, young families, and all the responsibilities that come with them. Eventually, we reconnected at a point where building something of our own felt like the right next step.

We’ve always been drawn to hobbies that reward time, effort, and curiosity. Zorik spends his time playing guitar, collecting old cars, and getting outdoors whenever possible. Javier is into running, cycling, chess, and aviation.

What we believe in

At Lifestyle Hobbies, we believe hobbies aren’t distractions from life - they’re an essential part of it.

Building our store came from a simple idea: there should be a place that thoughtfully curates high-quality hobby and lifestyle gear for people who care about how they spend their time. 

We exist for people who value how they spend their time. The ones who invest in quality, care about experience, and want more than just another product delivered to their door. 

Lifestyle Hobbies was created to bring together the world’s best high-end recreational equipment in one place, supported by real guidance, honest information, and a premium buying experience from start to finish.

Our Mission

We aim to help people create spaces that inspire connection, enjoyment, and personal fulfillment by offering exceptional recreational equipment, expert guidance, and a seamless buying experience.

At Lifestyle Hobbies, we’re committed to quality over quantity, long-term value over trends, and relationships over one-time sales.
