This year marks the NBA’s 75th anniversary, and Canada Goose wanted to celebrate with a limited edition capsule collection of sleek outerwear. This is their chance for you to purchase some new winter gear that will help make your season a little brighter.
Canada Goose is celebrating the NBA’s 75th Anniversary with a limited-edition Canada Goose arctic program. The program includes a parka, pants, and boots that are made to withstand temperatures as cold as -60 degrees Fahrenheit.
Canada Goose announced a collaboration with renowned footwear designer Salehe Bembury as part of its multi-year partnership with the National Basketball Association (NBA) and its annual All-Star celebration. The limited-edition collection combines classic designs and contrasting materials with Canada Goose’s utilitarian DNA to evoke the 1990s NBA’s bold, functional, and limitless flare.
Salehe Bembury, an American designer, is responsible for some of the most famous shoe designs of the previous 10 years. The Salehe Bembury brand emphasizes a style-without-rules design concept via color, materials, and unique shapes.
“The NBA had a big impact on my interest in design.” “I grew up watching games with my father and appreciating everything about 90s basketball culture, from the ’94 Knicks to Space Jam and The Fresh Prince,” Bembury said. “The 1990s were a period of fashion experimentation, and I feel Canada Goose, the NBA, and I have captured that mentality with this collection.”
“As this year’s design partner for the NBA All-Star 2022, Salehe Bembury is one of the world’s most imaginative designers, and we are pleased to collaborate with him,” said Woody Blackford, Executive Vice President of Product at Canada Goose. “Through our NBA collaboration, we’ve been able to bring daring new interpretations of the Canada Goose brand to life.” This capsule mixes Canada Goose’s renowned quality and utility with the NBA’s cultural depth and Salehe’s limitless design approach.”
The Salehe Bembury x Canada Goose Collection is rooted in utilitarian history and embraces the clash of styles without boundaries. The four-piece unisex capsule was designed to layer, mix, and combine in unexpected ways to highlight the brand’s signature designs.
The Expedition Parka has been revamped with an exaggerated Chenille hood trim and detachable vest for a more expressive interpretation of the insignia while staying faithful to the brand’s function-first approach. With a bright pattern inspired by Bembury’s signature all-over fingerprint design, the Concord Fleece embodies the essence of 90s NBA fashion. The Signal Vest is a transitional weather classic with an extended front hem for more coverage and protection. The Tundra Bib is a traditional Canada Goose garment that protects the lower body from the elements. It contains elastic suspenders that may be adjusted and an interior drawcord for a bespoke fit.
The 2022 NBA All-Star Game will be at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland on Sunday, February 20. As the league celebrates its 75th anniversary season, NBA All-Star 2022 will bring together the most talented and passionate players for a global celebration of the game. All 2022 All-Star players will be able to purchase the Expedition Parka and Concord Fleece from the Canada Goose & NBA Collection with Salehe Bembury.
“We’re ecstatic to see our second capsule collection with Canada Goose come to life ahead of NBA AllStar 2022, in honor of the game’s best players and our fans,” said Lisa Piken Koper, NBA’s Senior Vice President of Global Partnerships. “As the NBA celebrates its 75th Anniversary Season, our newest partnership with Canada Goose allows our fans to display their love for the game in a unique way.”
On February 11, the collection will be available via the Canada Goose online shop.
