Editor’s Notes: Thom Browne has revealed a new charitable collection made in partnership with Barcelona FC. The American designer became an official provider for the team's off-field tailored uniforms in 2018.
The capsule includes a wool short suit, button-down cardigan, white oxford shirt, tie, scarf, socks, knit hat, and pebble grain folio, all co-branded with Browne's signature design elements and emblazoned with the FC Barcelona crest. 100 percent of the proceeds from the collection will be donated to the FC Barcelona Barca Foundation, which endeavors to prevent violence, fight against social exclusion, and foster access to education through a series of programs.
The announcement comes as no surprise as Thom Browne's love affair with sports goes way back. In 2018, Thom Browne released a wardrobe for golfing; for SS20 the designer put sports literally in the collection with pigskin-shaped bags; and the most recent SS21 collection was revealed as an alternative to the canceled Olympics. He's also worked with LeBron James for a capsule collaboration with UNKNWN.
