BE A GOOD #TEAMMATE - OUR MAT WEAR BRAND'S FLAGSHIP LINE

"Be A Good #TeamMATe" is the motto that guides our basketball squad, and we’ve brought that spirit to our line of apparel.
The collection keeps growing, as this slogan remains central to everything we do. You can already find hoodies, T-shirts, basketball shorts with pockets, hats, and non-slip socks—created in collaboration with the brand hSports—in our store.
The collection has been out for a while now, so we’ve managed to gather a substantial amount of photos. It all started in Sardinia—specifically in Cagliari, Italy—where we headed for a short getaway that, naturally, combined a vacation with our passion for basketball travel...





Why did we choose Sardinia for the initial photoshoot? Our #TeamMATe member, Kinga Piędel, was playing her season with the CUS Cagliari club; she was a major influence on the creation of this collection, serving as an inspiration thanks to the kind of person she is off the court. We had previously decided against creating a new collection, but Kinga provided the spark to develop new items that our team could truly identify with. Add in the wordplay and the perfect fit of the word "MAT," and it all comes together seamlessly.
If we had to describe the communication we’ve shared over the years in a single word, that word fits perfectly. The shoot was a blast, and plenty of smiles were added by Kinga’s teammate from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Tea Perić.
Following the positive reception of the initial photos—and with the 3x3 World Cup in Warsaw approaching—we decided to infuse the "Be A Good #TeamMATe" collection with the national white-and-red colors.
It started with a few casual shots...




... and then we prepared specially personalized T-shirts for a few people, packed them in elegant boxes, and "spiced them up" with special coffee sachets from Hoop Beans.





We keep chasing the game, carrying our slogan with us. We recently showed it to the most popular cat in Poland ;-) If you’ve joined the #MATFamily too, we’re waiting for your photos.
