4 Styles You Can Sport

Vancouver-based fashion retailer Aritzia is all set for the 2010 Olympics as an official licensee in women’s clothing. Park Life for Aritzia, the brand’s Canadian athlete-inspired collection of vintage west coast apparel, has created an ever-growing hype in both the sport and fashion worlds. In fact, Vancouver’s own Jillian Harris of The Bachelorette was seen rocking a Park Life hoodie on the popular reality TV show! Seems like everyone’s catching Olympic fever with the line’s cozy tees, socks and everything in between (all available at Aritzia).

Faux Fur-lined Trapper Hat with Vintage-style Olympic Patch (pictured top left)
Perfect for winter nights and ice-bitten ears, this faux fur-lined trapper hat takes us back to the days of Looney Toons with Elmer Fudd. With the temperature continuously dipping way low, this cute trapper – patched with vintage Olympic symbols – will not only keep you warm and toasty, but totally trendy.

Vancouver 2010 Long Body Hoodie (pictured bottom left)
This super long-styled beauty could be any girl’s go-to hoodie. The graphic print details along the pocket (see Quatchi peeking out of the left pocket?), sleeves and hood give a cute touch to the perfect all-around sweater of the year. It’s perfect for keeping warm during Olympic events!

Vintage-style Olympic Sock Collection (pictured top right)
Let’s take the time to reminisce about Calgary’s and Lake Placid’s Olympic Games... or you can let your parents take care of that while you strut around in your snuggly vintage sports socks! For those who want to show their spirit in a more subtle way, choose from seven styles of thick knee-high socks each featuring the colours and symbols of an Olympic game past.

Mascot Trio Tee (pictured bottom right)
By now, we should all know our friendly little critters Quatchi, Miga and Mukmuk, especially because they are now skating their way across our very own t-shirts in velvet form. Can you resist those Olympic-friendly smiles? Because we sure can’t!

I love the socks, they are

I love the socks, they are bright and colourful- really good for winter too. I also really like the long blue hoodie. Aritzia has a nice Olympic collection.

The fur trapper hat is

The fur trapper hat is definitely on my Wish List. I thought the overall designs and outlook of the clothes produced from Aritzia for the Olympics were quite simple yet you can still show off your Canadian pride!

This is making me seriously

This is making me seriously consider buying some of this stuff -- but at this rate, if I do, I'm going to have no money left!

Vancouver 2010 Aritzia Merch

I already own the long hoodie and trio mascot shirt, and I love them. Good merch to keep as a momento of the olympics in Vancouver!

Although I don't really

Although I don't really agree with the 2010 Vancouver mascots, these designs are cute and totally wearable.

I'm not a big fan of

I'm not a big fan of Aritzia, but I really do love all their Olympic wear. It's a great way to show support for the Olympics and everything looks great too. I just wonder if any of the proceeds go to supporting athletes... It would be kind of wrong to use all the Olympic logos for their own benefit, right?
