Blason ville ca Abbotsford (Canada) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the Coat of Arms of Abbotsford, British Columbia, a heraldic emblem rich with symbolism and visual detail. The central design element is the shield, featuring a vibrant green background, emblematic of the city's fertile agricultural lands.
Dominating the shield is a gold (Or) cross and saltire, merged and voided with blue (Azure), forming a striking visual "hub" representing Abbotsford's central position in the Fraser Valley. At the heart of this intersection rests a gold disc (bezant) emblazoned with a strawberry flower, the "fraise" referencing the Fraser Clan and Simon Fraser, the valley's namesake.
Above the shield, the crest presents a mural coronet in red (Gules), signifying municipal authority. This supports a frieze of alternating maple leaves and stars (mullets), acknowledging Abbotsford's historic gateway role to the United States. A demi-stag, in gold (Or), is the centerpiece of the crest, its head turned. It wears a collar of green (Vert) corn leaves and grasps a blue (Azure) scythe between its forelegs. This imagery is a powerful representation of agriculture and history.
The design incorporates supporters, the visually engaging figures on either side of the shield. These are a gold stallion and a gold mare, standing upon a green grassy mound. The stallion is adorned with a collar of hop leaves and a Salish spindle whorl. The mare also wears a hop leaf collar, but with a steam locomotive wheel. The mound features a strawberry plant and daffodils, and below, barry wavy Argent and Azure, adding another layer of visual narrative.
The overall aesthetic is a harmonious blend of heraldic traditions and local identity, designed to celebrate the history, culture, and unity of Abbotsford.
