Kipling, the popular handbag and accessories company, has signed on to be the exclusive accessories sponsor of the 2011 U.S. Figure Skating Championships. The competition, which began on Saturday, is being held at the Greensboro Coliseum until January 30th. It features the world's best skaters in the ladies, men's, pairs and ice dancing categories.
To celebrate this year's competition, the brand will provide each skater with a one-of-a-kind USA Kipling bag. The bright red duffle features the U.S. Figure Skating logo and Kipling's iconic monkey charm.
According to Julie Dimperio, President of Kipling North America, “Our sponsorship of the U.S. Figure Skating Championships is a major first for the Kipling brand. “We are thrilled to participate in one of the country’s most beloved sporting events.”
Unfortunately the special bags are only available for the skating stars, but fans can visit www.Kipling-usa.com for a similar duffle.
