Fanatics and lululemon are taking their talents to the ice for a new NHL fan apparel collection.
The apparel line will feature 11 NHL teams for the 2024-25 NHL season: Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, Edmonton Oilers, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers, Seattle Kraken, Toronto Maple Leafs, Vancouver Canucks, Vegas Golden Knights and defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers. The collaboration will expand to all 32 NHL teams for the 2025-26 NHL season.
“We’re big hockey fans here at lululemon, and we know our guests are too,” Celeste Burgoyne, president of Americas and Global Guest Innovation for lululemon, said in a press release. “We’re thrilled to partner with Fanatics and the NHL to grow our presence in professional sports and introduce our high-quality performance and loungewear apparel to NHL fans around the League who share our love for the game.”
The companies didn't just tap some of the league's biggest stars for the campaign. They also brought in the players' significant others, with Detroit's Dylan Larkin, Toronto's John Tavares and Seattle's Matty Beniers joined by their loved ones.
