France Squad Bring The Drip To Clairefontaine

The French National Team Headquarters at Clairefontaine turns into a catwalk of streetwear every time the World Champions report for international duty, and as the squad check in ahead of their upcoming EURO 2020 Qualifiers the boys in blue are bringing the FW19 drip.

Paris Fashion Week might have wrapped up earlier this month but there's a runway that's still active south west of the capital as the French National Team make their now trademark walk from their taxis to the steps of the National Football Centre. The French team arriving for their national footballing service has become something of a tradition since they won the World Cup in 2018 and with the tracksuits awaiting their arrival the players up their game to show off their latest wardrobes.

From the subtle sportswear vibes of Kylian Mbappe, Benjamin Pavard and N'Golo Kante, to the more fashion styled Presnel Kimpembe and Olivier Giroud, the walk to Clairefontaine is always scattered with designer brands, limited edition sneakers and customised garms. Is there a more stylish team in international football on and off the pitch? Iceland away and Turkey at home await the the World Champs over the weekend as they look to secure their spot at EURO 2020.
