The Made For The Moment Capsule collab drops 11.25.22.

MISSISSAUGA, ON, Nov. 25, 2022 /CNW/ - Canada surprised the world by making it onto soccer's biggest stage, and that surprise meant that Canadians are uniting to celebrate. So, Frito Lay Canada enlisted the help of iconic Canadian brand, Bauer X, along with artists from coast to coast, to create a jersey made for this historic moment.

Introducing: the Made For The Moment Capsule, made possible by Frito Lay Canada and Bauer X. A first-of-its-kind collaborative capsule collection made exclusively for Canadians by one of Canada's most storied brands in sports. It symbolizes what we are made of and what we can do when we come together as a community. This moment is for all of us, a time to celebrate and commemorate our achievement on the world stage.

It all starts with our jersey that tells the story of modern Canada, representing the many elements that make this country great. It's beautifully crafted by 13 artists from different provinces and different backgrounds?a painter, an animator, a photographer, fashion designers and apparel makers from coast to coast. Together, the diverse collection of artists share meaningful icons, emblems, tokens, language and patterns that are woven together and united by a common thread: A love for our home. It is a symbol of what we are made of and what we can do when we come together as a community. Created by Canada, for Canada, made specifically for this moment.

"We are so proud of this collaboration with Bauer X and the jersey that inspired talented artists from across Canada to create a symbol of national pride that unites us all", said Jess Spaulding, Chief Marketing Officer of Frito-Lay and Quaker Canada. "It's a beautiful tribute for this place we proudly call home."
