The partnership was announced on November 30th by weaving the notable RBC shield and lion, and the RBC navy and gold colourways into Matthews’s outfit in a “get ready with me” moment, and as he walked the pre-game tunnel ahead of yesterday’s winning game. The pre-game walk has become a distinguished way for players to show their personal style, making it an exclusive runway in hockey. Matthews was head-to-toe in luxury sporting a Prada bag, a Gucci jacket, and Gucci lion pendant, an Acne Studios toque, and custom Amiri sneakers featuring the RBC colours hand-painted by Mack House, and custom insoles of the RBC shield.
