FC Real Bristol is teaming up with one of the world's most iconic brands to create the new Disney x FC Real Bristol capsule collection.
Though it might sound like a football team in England, FC Real Bristol is actually a streetwear label conceptualized by the Japanese label SOPHNET. Now the brand has teamed up with Disney, to pay homage to four of Britain’s major football cities: Bristol, London, Liverpool, and Manchester. Each of the new shirts in the Disney x FC Real Bristol capsule collection features graphics of Mickey Mouse playing football or interacting with a football in some way. The shirts all come in either black or white and are sold in both adult and kid sizing so whole families can show their support for their favorite team.
