Basketball-Themed Retro Apparel

BSTN Launches the Alpine Basketball Capsule for the Season

German retail imprint BSTN introduces its latest collection named Alpine Basketball for the season as it celebrates the different subcultures that surround the sport. It highlights the off-court themes of cozy looks that are prepared for the colder seasons of the year as well.

To deliver seasonal items, the brand taps the help of glove maker ROECKL to help create a premium pair of gloves made from fine Nappa leather materials. It is designed in a black palette with white star-shaped patches on top for a contrasting look. The rest of the capsule includes items such as a mesh jersey that has reversible elements, heavyweight tees, long-sleeved shirts, knitwear, tearaway pants, heavyweight hoodies, nylon gilets, and more.
