Showcasing the bespoke pieces inspired by streetwear and football culture are local Toronto talent Unimerce, Ebhoni, and Emily Ferguson. From zipped vests to track jackets with running Frankie branding, it's all fresh fuel on the football/fashion fire.

Select attendees at Tango League Toronto will have the opportunity to create and re-work their own designs onsite during hands-on sessions with the team from Frankie. The activation will also include a special pop-up shop, with unique re-worked vintage adidas pieces created by Frankie for sale.
