American fashion label Bldwn works in collaboration with Sporting Kansas City, a major league soccer team based in Kansas City. The duo joins forces to create a limited-edition capsule that brings their local story to a global platform. John Moncke of SKC states, "we have a passion for fashion and sports, so we want to push the boundaries of what this type of collaboration can do to bring people together."

The partnership stemmed from a connection that sparked from the very beginning as both contributing partners want to place the fan and customer at the very core of local sports culture. The collection strongly emphasizes a sense of community and comfort, translated through bold details such as team lettering and design patterns of a 'Fifties baseball call.'
