Albino & Preto introduce its latest offerings -- this time, working in collaboration with the iconic science fiction series, Star Trek. The main design inspiration behind the capsule centers around intelligent beings that exist across the different planets, who "live in a condition of peace and mutual benefit."
The collection also taps into the art of Brazillian jiu-jitsu, showcased through the variety of different silhouettes. The capsule is made up of tees, long sleeve tops, training shorts, jui-jitsu kimonos, and rash guards as well. Every item in the capsule is detailed with notable Star Trek emblems and graphics, along with branding details that nod to A&P, complete with the signature"Live Long & Prosper" Vulcan salute.
