Sportswear labels FILA and Dickies have worked together previously in collaboratively crafting a range of comfort apparel. The latest project of the two is a series of co-branded sports-inspired garments. The two brands draw a strong influence from the Italian label's athletic roots -- delivering pieces including a hockey shirt and basketball jersey for example. The newest collaborative FILA and Dickies collection is comprised of tank tops, crewneck t-shirts, collared t-shirts and jerseys.
All of the offerings in the capsule bear a bold and retro colorway, as well as monochromatic hues of black and grey. Another notable element of the collection is the usage of COOLMAX technology implemented to pieces including the relaxed fitted football shirt in order to grant breathability and comfort. The range will be launching in May on the Dickies Japan website.
