Carhartt WIP and F.C.Real Bristol Launch First Capsule Collection
by Adriano Batista
Carhartt WIP and Tokyo-based label F.C.Real Bristol have released their first collaboration, a capsule spanning sportswear-inspired apparel, accessories and football memorabilia.
F.C.Real Bristol was founded in 1999 under the Japanese contemporary clothing brand SOPH. The label centers on the concept of a fictional football club, emerging ahead of the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Japan as a creative response to football apparel as everyday wear. Since then, the label has created collections for fictional players and supporters alike, designed for on and off the pitch.
The debut capsule with Carhartt WIP is anchored in F.C.Real Bristol’s performance-driven shapes and fabrics, rendered in Carhartt WIP’s core shades of Dusty Hamilton Brown, wax, navy and black, finished with co-branded jacquard webbing. Styles include varsity jackets in thick interlock and warm-up jackets in lightweight nylon satin, game shirts and shorts in moisture-wicking weaves, a knitted supporter scarf and socks, and a canvas cap. Memorabilia includes a brown rubber duck and a custom football.
Check out the campaign shot by Theodor Guelat:
The collection launches on April 10 at select global retailers and Carhartt WIP stores, as well as at carhartt-wip.com and via the Carhartt WIP App. The release will be marked by a series of table football tournaments spanning Amsterdam, Barcelona, Kuala Lumpur, London, Milan, New York, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo and Toronto. The events are open to the public and take place from April 9 to 10.
