UNDEFEATED launches the lookbook for its seasonal Fall 2019 offerings and the collection leans toward basic athletics, with subtle elements that introduce a style-forward twist. From cozy all-black hoody and sweatpant sets that are embellished by the contemporary streetwear label's logo to a water-resistant pull-over with a half-zip and retro sensibilities, the Fall 2019 menswear definitely surrenders itself to timelessness through design.

There is the recurring motif of branding that adorns the chic and basic athletic garments as 'UNDEFEATED,' its logo or a specific slogan repeats itself throughout. Moreover, the clothing is not only highly functional but it can also be easily adapted to the landscape of contemporary streetwear.

The UNDEFEATED Fall 2019 collection is expected to become available on August 2nd.
