The Hudson’s Bay Company has released what will be the newest trend in Canadian pride this winter! The Canadian Olympic and Paralympic Team Collection for the Sochi 2014 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games were revealed last week. Modelled on gold medal skier Alexandre Bilodeau, snowboarder Caroline Calve, hockey player Drew Doughty and skier Kelsey Serwa, it would be hard for any piece of the collection to look bad.
Included in the collection are beaver adorned scarves, a stylish red duffle coat, and this year’s version of the stocking stuffer, the Canadian Olympic mittens. Colour blocking in t-shirts and sweaters is also a key trend among the collection. Embracing typical Canadian character, the collection features the Canadian leaf, the main symbol of our country as well as Canadian animals such as the beaver, the loon and the polar bear, displaying Canadian diversity. Also included is the Canadian crest, which represents the dedication our athletes have to their home land.
“I have been fortunate to participate in four Olympic Games, and I know the pride one feels when wearing the red and white while competing internationally,” said Jean-Luc Brassard, four-time Olympian, Lillehammer 1994 gold medallist and Assistant Chef de Mission for Sochi 2014. “Hudson’s Bay has delivered once again, and our new uniforms beautifully represent our country’s drive to be number one in Sochi.”
The Hudson’s Bay Collection allows all Canadians an affordable way to wear their support, stay cozy during Canada’s cold winters, and look good doing it! Prices range from $5 – $39 for Accessories $12.99- $50 for Kids and Infants and $19 – $275 for Men’s and Women’s Clothing and Outerwear.
