London-based streetwear brand Alma de Ace have announced a new collaboration with Admiral Sports, the iconic British sportswear company, and the pair have kicked things off with a capsule collection honouring the golden era of football.
For those not necessarily in the know, Alma de Ace is a brand that primarily creates products that draw from the archives of the past, bringing casual and relaxed leisurewear options, with a touch of retro nostalgia and a nod to sporting heritage. With that in mind, this new collaboration with iconic British sportswear company, Admiral, who have a storied history in football comes across like an absolute tap in from three yards out.
The first collaborative collection to come from the partnership seamlessly blends Alma de Ace’s contemporary sports aesthetics and signature panelling with Admiral’s rich football heritage. The limited-edition five-piece collection includes shorts, a track jacket, a sweatshirt, and two football shirts available in a dark blue home kit and a light blue away kit.
Theo Hamburger, Sales and Marketing Manager at Admiral Sports, said of the collaboration: "For over 110 years, Admiral has been a cornerstone of sporting culture. Collaborating with British brands like Alma de Ace is vital to contemporary football culture. This partnership beautifully elevates Admiral's iconic styles and silhouettes, making it the perfect way to kick off the football season.”
Sebastian Agace, Founder of Alma de Ace, added: "Collaborating with Admiral Sportswear and exploring their rich football heritage has been an incredible experience. Combining their iconic legacy with our signature panelling has resulted in a collection that perfectly captures the essence of both brands.
"I've always been inspired by the moment when teams step onto the pitch in their warm-up jackets, and that energy is at the heart of this drop. With Alma de Ace F.C., we've created versatile sportswear that’s stylish both on and off the pitch.”
