Canada Goose has entered an exciting multi-year partnership with Giants of Africa, the not-for-profit youth basketball organization co-founded by Toronto Raptors Vice-Chairman and President, Masai Ujiri.
To celebrate the new partnership, which coincides with Giants of Africa empowering African youth through basketball for 20 years, Canada Goose and Giants of Africa have collaborated on a limited-edition Crofton vest. 100 per cent of proceeds from sales of the vest will go to Giants of Africa.
"Giants of Africa and Canada Goose both share the same passion for enabling people to achieve their dreams by providing them with opportunities for growth and development—because we believe that's how we can make a real and lasting impact on communities in Africa, and around the world,” says Ujiri, Toronto Raptors Vice-Chairman and President.
“We’re excited to launch the first of two collections and continue our work together supporting African youth, while bringing communities together over their shared love of the sport of basketball."
The Crofton down vest is a versatile, lightweight year-rounder that folds into a cinchable bag with carrying straps for easy travel. It's available in sagebrush exterior with daffodil interior, the core colours present in some of Giants of Africa's photography over the last 20 years.
The front of the vest features co-branding with both the Canada Goose disc and Giants of Africa logo with the Giants of Africa 20th anniversary patch on the upper back portion of the vest.
As part of this two-year partnership, a full capsule collection will be launching in 2024.
The FW23 capsule collection drops Dec. 4 exclusively at the Canada Goose Toronto Eaton Centre store. Follow Canada Goose's social channels and visit their website to be the first to access new drops.
