Rowing Blazers, FILA, and Nelvana have come together and designed a tennis-inspired capsule collection that celebrates the well-loved children's literacy character Barbar the Elephant. The Rowing Blazers x FILA x Barbar collection features 14 tennis-ready pieces and launches just in time to celebrate Barbar's 90th anniversary.
Rowing Blazers chief executive, Jack Carlson, spearheaded the collaboration after admiring a print that hung in his home of Barbar playing tennis. The capsule follows a color palette of white, navy, green, and yellow and incorporates the character Barbar sporting tennis attire. The collection features a selection of apparel, accessories, and shoes, ensuring there is something for everyone.
The children's literacy character Barbar has been loved by nine generations, making this collection a must-have for all - old and young.
