With an incredibly stylish collection of Motorsport apparel, California-based label Period Correct pays tribute to German automaker [BMW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cao-fei-art-car). The capsule is comprised out of sleek and comfortable casual wear that subtly references "the car behemoth's M series vehicles and their racing history." The inspiration fuels a capsule of Motorsport apparel that boasts a heavy use of graphics — from a photographic representation of an engine that reads 'BMW MPower' to 'SCHNITZER'-detailed sleeve branding.

Period Correct's offerings range from t-shirts to patterned Stance socks and GORE-TEX-lined caps. All in all, the Motorsport apparel is catered to the car lover and effectively offers a stylish and comfortably sporty approach to the contemporary wardrobe.
