'Undefeated,' an American clothing label, is following up its designs that honored the US athletes who took part in the Rio games this summer with a fall-ready collection that makes prominent use of military-style clothing.
This includes a number of masculine olive-toned jackets, sweatsuits and t-shirts that state "ARMY VS ARMY" on the front. Some of the other pieces stray from the military-style clothing theme however, with vibrant plaid prints and collared long-sleeves thrown into the mix. While the brand states its name over many of the pieces boldly, others feature it very minimally.
In addition to this, Undefeated includes the attitude-heavy phrase "F*ck an apology. I'm not sorry for anything" embroidered onto the sleeve of a jacket, a tee with the words "FOUL PLAY" written, as well as a hat that warns onlookers by simply stating "PLAYER."
