Canadian retailer the Hudson’s Bay Company unveiled on Tuesday the Team Canada Collection that will outfit Canadian athletes at the upcoming Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

 
Olympic and Paralympic Team members will be provided with leisurewear, jackets, pants and accessories as part of their Rio 2016 uniform. The full clothing kit includes Closing Ceremony and Podium looks, as well as village wear. The garments were designed with the maple leaf in outline and solid form, and combined with the Canada wordmark.
 
Team Canada’s Opening Ceremony uniform was designed by fashion designers Dean and Dan Caten from Dsquared2. The look which includes a jacket, shirt and pants is a formal take on an athletic look and uses a red, white and black colour palette.

Other items like colour-blocked tees, word marked hoodies, nylon track jackets, and accessories including hats, scarves and more, will equally outfit the athletes through out the event.
 
The collection will be available at all Hudson’s Bay locations across Canada beginning May 4, 2016. Select key pieces are now available to shop online at thebay.com.
