Moores Clothing for Men Announces 9th Year In Partnership With the National Basketball Coaches Association

Joseph Abboud Named Official Wardrobe Supplier to the NBCA

TORONTO, Oct. 17, 2017 /CNW/ -- Moores enters its 9^th year in partnership with the National Basketball Coaches Association (NBCA) as the Official Wardrobe Supplier to the NBCA. Joseph Abboud will be dressing 24 NBA head coaches in Joseph Abboud Custom suits for the 2017-2018 season, including Dwane Casey, head coach of the Toronto Raptors.  

Each head coach has been fitted at the NBA Coaches Summit in Chicago this past September where they carefully selected from a range silhouettes, styles, and the finest Italian fabrics to personally design their custom suits. Each coach will receive 10 suits and 20 ties this season. 

"For us, these suits are like our uniform so it's nice to have well-tailored and stylish suits on the sidelines," says Coach Casey.  "Joseph Abboud has been around for 30 years and has such a great reputation for great tailoring, it gives me the confidence I need on the court."

In addition to Coach Casey, the NBA head coaches participating in the program include:

As part of their commitment to the partnership, the coaches will be giving back by participating in the annual Canadian Suit Drive in July. Moores Clothing for Men collects gently used professional attire giving unemployed individuals a chance to look their best as they transition back into the workforce. Clothing collected at Moores stores will be distributed to over 60 local recipient organizations across the country that help disadvantaged individuals regain employment through job readiness programs and workforce assistance. Coach Casey will personally be donating to the Canadian Suit Drive next July.

Joseph Abboud Custom clothing is available at Moores Clothing for Men stores nationwide. For more information, visit mooresclothing.com. Find high-resolution imagery from the NBCA coaches' suit fittings here.
