If you’ve ever thought, “I love this Team USA Olympic merchandise, but there aren’t enough Minions,” today is your lucky day: The official line of authentic, branded and marketed Olympic gear covered in Minions has been released ahead of the Paris Olympics, and now you finally have your chance to get your hands on some indentured yellow baddies in a Team USA hoodie.
The world will be shocked when Kevin, Bob, and Stuart show up on the Champs-Élysées this summer. This isn’t some off-brand event run by an independent studio; according to a press release sent to SB Nation, the Minions are official brand ambassadors for Team USA.
“The Minions x Team USA collection brings together two iconic global brands in celebration of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris,” said Vince Kraseus, president, Universal Products & Experiences. “Minions bring joy to fans of all ages and their influence in pop culture and fashion is undeniable, which is why they’re the perfect brand ambassadors for fans to cheer on and prepare alongside Team USA.”
Team USA x Minions merchandise is available for purchase online at the official team shop and at the NBC Store at Rockefeller Center in New York City. The Minions era is just beginning.
