-Proceeds support 2010 World Championship teams though Canadian Basketball Foundation-
(Toronto, ON) Just in time for the holidays, Canada Basketball is pleased to introduce the new CB Classic Collection apparel line, featuring limited edition vintage designer bamboo graphic t-shirts. Launched under the new ‘CB Authentic’ label and created by Canadian designer Jing Liu of ‘JUZD’, this five-series of shirts pays homage to the traditions and milestones of Canada Basketball, which was originally established in 1923. “Our country has a rich heritage in basketball from the beginning with Dr. louboutin soldes James Naismith, and we are continuing to make history with each successful season,” said Wayne Parrish, Executive Director and CEO of Canada Basketball. “This collection offers a way for players, coaches and fans of the game to be a part of this history while proudly honouring the sport.” The CB Classic Collection was created not only to pay tribute to the past, but also to galvanize Canadians around Canada’s national hoops teams and the FIBA 2010 World Championships. 009 was a banner summer for the elite squads, as Canada successfully qualified for all four 2010 world basketball events (Senior Men, Senior Women, Cadet Men, Cadette Women). Joining dominant countries like Argentina, Australia, Spain and USA, Canada is one of only five FIBA nations to achieve this distinction. JUZD high–fashion designer Jing Liu and Toronto Artist Terence Chung are passionate basketball fans, who volunteered their creative talent to develop an innovative yet affordable product line. After a successful run at the 2009 LG Fashion Week in Toronto, Jing and Terence are eager to roll out this new venture for basketball enthusiasts across the country. “I’m really excited with how the final shirts turned out, it was beyond my vision,” stated Jing Liu, Lead Designer for JUZD and the CB Classic Collection. “I’m amazed at the artistic synergy that was created working with Terence and the team at Canada Basketball throughout this project!” The five shirts each have a distinct look and feel, incorporating design treatments like flocking and plastisol to generate the vintage effect. Creative names include CB Club, Game Night, The Kid, Seven, and Olympic, which is a reproduction of the maple leaf worn at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, when Canada won the silver medal. The CB Classic Collection limited edition t-shirts will be available starting November 20 at three exclusive retailers: Centre Sports at Air Canada Centre, The Sport Gallery in the historic Distillery District and at Canada Basketball’s online store at shop.basketball.ca. As an added bonus, Canada Basketball is offering an additional 10 per cent off the retail price of $34.99 from November 9 -19, when shoppers pre-order online at shop.basketball.ca, while supplies last. In the spirit of giving, 10 per cent of proceeds from each shirt will benefit the Canadian Basketball Foundation, a registered charitable organization dedicated to growing all aspects of the game of basketball. CBF is committed to promoting and developing the game of basketball for all Canadians, from the grassroots to national team level, including support for the 2010 World Championship teams.
