Fitness: Dress like an Olympic athlete

The Hudson’s Bay red mittens have become a symbol of the Winter Games to Canadians. Launched in 2009 in support of the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games, the Red Mittens Campaign was a huge success for the company. This year, as the Official Outfitter of the Canadian Olympic Team, Hudson’s Bay Company has introduced dozens of other clothing and gear options, in addition to their Olympic Collection 2014 Snow Top Red Mittens (pictured above; $10, thebay.com). See below for a few favourites from HBC, plus some Olympic-themed picks from other companies, including Oakley (the official high performance eyewear supplier for the Canadian Olympic Team), Adidas (the official high performance apparel and footwear supplier for the Canadian Olympic Team), and Nike (who supplies Team Canada’s hockey jerseys for both the Olympics and Paralympics).
