Many of us are eagerly awaiting the FIFA World Cup coming up in November.
In the midst of all this, we have received news of a collaboration that we would like to introduce not only to soccer fans but also to fashion enthusiasts. White Mountaineering and F.C. Real Bristol have teamed up to create a new line of clothing.
F.C. Real Bristol is a brand that develops original clothing inspired by the people surrounding a fictional football team. Yosuke Aizawa of White Mountaineering is the creative director of Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo, a J1 team that produces uniforms and goods. Since they share the common denominator of "soccer," there is no doubt that the two brands are a perfect match.
