French soccer label Paris Saint-Germain channels the talents of French artist Tyrsa to design a set of Bonkers jerseys -- this creation serves as a wild typeface for the label's 'Jordan Brand Champion League' apparel. Paris Saint-Germain continues to achieve a global presence "on and off the pitch" and this recent collaboration delivers playful text graphic designs. The lettering on the jerseys are altered to look distorted -- this is created by hand by taking a basketball typeface and scanning it. This gives a merged sene of both soccer and basketball visual design elements.
Each letter graphic is made in two different design iterations in order to allow consumers to personalize their own arrangement of letter sets. The label showcases athlete names including Neymar, Verrati, Buffon, and Mbappé in a variety of fonts.
