NBALAB, the NBA’s innovation incubator, has teamed up with Duck® brand Duck Tape® to launch a bold and unexpected apparel collection. This collaboration will feature officially licensed t-shirts for each of the 30 NBA teams, with two exclusive designs per team.
Each shirt will creatively replicate the look and feel of Duck Tape®, translating the texture, patterns, and iconic style of the household staple into wearable, fashion-forward fan gear. The line exemplifies NBALAB’s mission to explore unique and surprising partnerships that bring fresh expressions of the NBA to fans worldwide.
“This is exactly the type of collaboration that defines NBALAB,” said Billi Kid, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of NBALAB. “We pride ourselves on creating the unexpected, and Duck Tape® is an instantly recognizable brand that fans never imagined would crossover into the NBA world. Together, we’re creating something both fun and iconic that gives fans a whole new way to rep their team.”
Duck® brand echoed the enthusiasm for the partnership.
“Duct Tape has always been about creativity and self-expression and partnering with NBALAB to bring that energy to NBA apparel was a natural fit,” said Kerry Haugh, director of product marketing at Shurtape Technologies, LLC, the company that markets the Duck® brand. “This collaboration celebrates the playful spirit of Duct Tape while giving fans unique, collectible designs they won’t find anywhere else.”
The Duck Tape® x NBA collection will be available in two unique designs per team, offering fans fresh and distinctive ways to showcase their pride. The collection will roll out on October 22nd and will be available on NBALAB.com, along with select NBA official team stores.
