Hudson’s Bay Rallies Behind Team Canada as They Gear up to  compete on the World Stage in Tokyo

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Team Canada’s official Flag Bearers took proud, confident strides in bringing our country together as they marched in the Parade of Nation’s representing all of Team Canada at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony. Dressed in the official Opening Ceremony uniform, designed by Hudson’s Bay, the Flag Bearers, Miranda Ayim and Nathan Hirayama, represented the thread weaving the fabric of Team Canada’s spirit together in the highly anticipated ceremony that introduced Canada on the Olympic world stage for the first time in three years.

“The Opening Ceremony sets the stage for Canadian athletes as they embark on their journey to gold and as the Official Outfitter of Team Canada, we’ve designed a uniform that ignites a strong and unapologetic sense of Canadian pride for both athletes competing and for everyone cheering them on from back home,” says Iain Nairn President and CEO of Hudson’s Bay. “We are rallying behind Team Canada and wish every athlete the best of luck as competitions commence.”

Each Team Canada athlete received a complete clothing kit consisting of jackets, t-shirts, tank tops, lightweight track pants and shorts, tailored denim, baseball and bucket hats, and other accessories including a hip pack, sweatbands, a backpack, and luggage. The 26-piece Team Canada kit collection includes full outfits for the Opening and Closing ceremonies, Podium Presentations and village wear, all designed with performance, comfort and bold artistic motifs that pay tribute to the street style aesthetic from Japan, and modern Canadian-cool style.

Canadians can show their pride and support of Team Canada athletes by sporting the Olympic replica collection pieces available exclusively at Hudson’s Bay, the Hudson’s Bay App and on thebay.com.
