I’ll take a double-double, 10 Timbiebs, and a fanny pack, please.

Canadians now have a new word in their cultural lexicon: “Timbiebs”, the limited-edition line of Tim Hortons Timbit flavours created by pop star and now part-time donut chef, Justin Bieber. If you were not aware of this development, or if you need a refresher, see the video below.

But wait, there’s now more. Today, a sweet surprise was added to the Bieber’s collaboration with the iconic coffee chain. Tim Hortons, via social media, announced that there will be three merchandise items launched to accompany the Timbiebs treats. As pictured below, there will be a Tim Hortons and Justin Bieber co-branded fanny pack, a toque, and a canvas tote bag that will be available for purchase at select Tim Hortons locations throughout Canada and the U.S.

Beginning on Monday, November 29th, fans will be able to add these pieces to their order on a Tim’s run – until they sell out, of course. Tim Hortons said on Twitter that, “Timbiebs merch is only available in participating restaurants. For a limited time while supplies last.” Judging by the reactions and comments on social media, this merchandise seems to be quite popular. The yellow and brown colour scheme pays homage to the coffee company’s original beginnings and first iteration of the Tim Hortons logo that was displayed on shop signs and on coffee cups for many decades.

Lots of Canadians will remember this version of logo, and Tim Hortons goes hand in hand with nostalgia for many of us who grew up in the Great White North, including Justin Bieber himself.

The superstar proudly announced, “I grew up on Tim Hortons and it’s always been something close to my heart.”

According to The Toronto Sun, each merchandise item will cost $29.99 and there will be a limit of three items per purchase.
