Iconic brand Kappa and streetwear outpost Extra Butter's collaboration pays tribute to the 2018 FIFA World Cup — an event just a week away, with a new football-inspired activewear collection. Highlighting key pieces from both the men's and women's range, the silhouettes are characterized by the classic Kappa over-branding and carry an aesthetic that also outwardly exhibits the line's comfortable fits.
The activewear collection draws inspiration from "Russian tattoo art and Cyrillic lettering," offering a variety of coloring in the silhouettes. From long-sleeve crewneck and flowy yellow shorts to branded hoodie crops and classic track pants, the 'From Butter, With Love' capsule truly pays homage to the Russian spirit and its dedication to the sport of football.
