Why we love it: Hudson’s Bay has released its Official Team Canada Collection for the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games.

“As the official outfitter of Team Canada, Hudson’s Bay has heard firsthand the strong sense of patriotism our Canadian athletes feel when they wear their official Team Canada uniforms,” Iain Nairn, president and CEO of Hudson’s Bay, said in a news release “By unveiling the collection now, our goal is to inspire athletes and fans to keep the spirit and momentum of Team Canada strong and support our athletes looking to compete in Tokyo next summer.”

Ten per cent of the proceeds from the sale of each Official Team Canada Collection garment goes back to support the athletic program Team Canada Return to Sport. The range of men’s and women’s designs from the 26-piece collection include T-shirts, hats, sweaters and more.

One of the standout styles from the release is the Canadian Olympic Team Collection x Levi’s Unisex Replica Closing Ceremony

Trucker Jacket, a “replica” denim-jacket style that’s to be worn by the Canadian Olympic athletes during the Games finale ceremonies next summer.

The blue-denim style features a custom-designed Tokyo striped leaf with stripes representi­ng the 10 Canadian provinces and three Canadian territorie­s, along with “graffiti-style graphics,” including a bold red ‘Canada’ on the front, as well as in black down the sleeve, and a Canadian flag. The price: $198.
