Better™ Gift Shop Pays Homage to Hockey Culture and Toronto
References: bettergiftshop & hypebeast
Hockey culture and Toronto sensibilities are evoked in this new collection by Better™ Gift Shop. This fashion capsule is made in collaboration with Sherwood who "has supported the hockey community for nearly 75 years with high-quality equipment that celebrates the individual."
Hockey culture is definitely relevant to Canada and the City of Toronto as it is the most popular sport in the country. This contemporary capsule features two hockey jerseys and New Era caps, as well. Another source of inspiration for the collaborators was Toronto's Chinatown. Since this is the neighborhood in which Better™ Gift Shop resides, the brand decided to honor the community, calling out local favorites like the Kung Fu and Lion Dance Club, Hong Luck Kung Fu Club, and more.
