Fred Perry and narifuri Join Forces on a Sporty Capsule
Fred Perry works in collaboration with Tokyo-based cycling label narifuri on a collection made up of four designs that are focused on performance. Fred Perry takes its signature polo shirt and updates the construction and design to be practical for athleticism. The collaboration merges stylistic approaches with functionality as the polo shirt transforms into a cycling performance apparel.
The details that update the shirt include zipper, mesh details for breathability, and paneling. The shirt comes in four different versions and each one is constructed using a quick-dry cotton material. The back of the design has a pocket for more practicality during performance with stepped hems to provide security while cycling. Rounding off the capsule are Laurel Wreath details at the chest.
