Canada Soccer’s Women’s National Team’s new Nike home jersey
\u200bhas drawn its inspiration from the maple leaf, an important and iconic symbol
\u200bin Canadian culture. The new home jersey features a distinctive mix of red
\u200bcolours – Challenge Red, Sport Red and University Red – across a geometric
\u200bdesign of maple leaves.
The jersey will be worn by Canada Soccer’s Women’s National
\u200bTeam when international football resumes. Earlier this year, Canada
\u200bqualified for the Tokyo Olympic Games, which was postponed until 2021 because
\u200bof the Covid-19 pandemic. Canada Soccer Women’s National Team won bronze at
\u200bback-to-back Olympic Games at London 2012 and Rio 2016.
Alongside the
\u200bnew jersey, Canada Soccer also unveiled the new Power Lines font which will be
\u200bused for all jersey numbering and nameplates. The new font typeface was also
\u200binspired by the maple leaf, built from the dynamic angles and lines of Canada’s
\u200bmost recognised and beloved symbol.
The new Canada Soccer Women’s National Team red jersey is on sale now in women’s, men’s and youth sizes at Sport Chek and Nike.ca.
