“I am honored to pioneer with the Arizona Coyotes organization to reimagine the sport alongside culture and design. To me, it feels a part of the world of classic, iconic streetwear. It’s not just a brand, it’s a lifestyle brand in my eyes,” said Mr. Villaseñor.
Arizona Coyotes Chief Brand Officer Alex Meruelo Jr. says the new jersey and apparel line is pushing the boundaries of what can exist in traditional sports.
“Rhuigi captures the essence of Arizona with his designs and he’s constantly pushing the boundaries of what we think a traditional sports team’s apparel should look like,” he said. “It’s been an exciting journey to work with Rhuigi and we are thrilled that he gets to be a part of this community and share his story with some younger designers to inspire them.”
