Nobis x Serge Ibaka: the Toronto Raptor Drops his First Winter Capsule
Functional beauty.
Canadian outerwear brand Nobis and Toronto Raptor Serge Ibaka launched their first collaboration today with the Serge Ibaka x Nobis winter capsule, a genderless selection of nine limited-edition pieces, including a parka, anorak, bomber jacket, vests, hats, and Ibaka’s favourite—oversized scarves. Bridging the basketball player’s personal streetwear-influenced style with Nobis’ technical components, the capsule promotes an ethos of “functional beauty,” according to Michael Kerr, senior design director at Nobis.
Home launderable and low maintenance, with lime green and reflective accents complementing a neutral colour palette, the winter capsule features well-thought weatherproof elements fit for the season—from water-repellent nylon shells to the Primaloft insulation on items like the anorak and bomber jacket. Ibaka’s iconic aesthetic is translated through a reversible nylon ripstop bucket hat, with Nobis’ logo on one side and Ibaka’s catchphrase “Mafuzzy” on the other.
The collection is available online and across Nobis’ 35 global stores.
