Represent and Admiral have linked up to drop a FW18 collaboration born from the design duo's respect for British footballing heritage. Throwback style weaved rich with 70s tracksuit nostalgia.
British street-rooted label REPRESENT was created in 2012 by brothers George & Michael Heaton. A brand that pushes constant progression of high-end product inspired by British eras. This latest drop reflects the brother's love of Manchester by injecting new life into recognisable classics, including Admiral's iconic hourglass tracksuit design worn by Manchester United in the 1970s.
The dual-branded vintage silhouettes have been reworked and given the fabrication a modern update as REPRESENT create a nostalgic nod to the past whilst adding a modern view of traditional British design through a contemporary lens, creating today's modern classics. Modelled by Leo Mandella, the capsule brings an all British made football inspired twist into the sports-fashion industry.
That Admiral crest will forever be a staple of English football. Just once glance at it is enough to trigger a frantic online search for a second hand England 1982 shirt. Glorious.
