Arriving as a love letter to vintage football style, PUMA have dropped the Players’ Lounge Collection, which pays homage to iconic ‘60s and ‘70s football style and is fronted by Memphis Depay.
Ready for a proper rewind? Good, ‘coz PUMA is reaching deep into its storied archive to re-live football’s golden age, as shown during the iconic ‘FUTROGRADE’ show during New York Fashion Week. The Players’ Lounge Collection is an inclusive range of apparel, footwear, and accessories, inspired by PUMA’s heritage and designed for the next generation. Evoking a unique era of charisma and taste, on and off the pitch, it’s a celebration of the brand’s own history, and the beautiful game itself.
Memphis Depay’s unique off-the-pitch style makes him the perfect muse for the collection, captured in an appropriate lookbook.
The collection boasts expressive details, including custom embroideries, trims, and engineered knits. PUMA’s iconic T7 tracksuit is reimagined with an all-new pattern inspired by the brand’s iconic Formstrip, and it fits perfectly into the dress code for the Players’ Lounge, which also makes room to include menswear staples like polo shirts and knitted crewneck sweaters, elevated through carefully considered design. Accessories like caps, scarves and select luggage round out the offerings.
For the footwear component of the collection, we see a range of included styles that span from classic running to basketball, not limited to the, Slipstream Lo, Suede VTG, RX 737, and the beloved Blaze of Glory, all of which are re-fitted with new details and touches.
