[PlayStation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-5) breaches its way into the fashion industry with a collaborative effort alongside football lifestyle imprint F.C. Real Bristol and Japanese fashion brand SOPH. The three-way capsule delivers a slew of streetwear designs that are made with an angle that explores football fashion.

The collection is comprised of 28 pieces in total -- all of which embody a [retro influence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hundreds-and-tetris). It all centers around a fictitious [PlayStation-sponsored football club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playstation-30th-anniversary-collection). In the new launch, there are oversized football shirts, warm-up suits to join, and even what appears to be a goalkeeper shirt. The silhouettes appear to all have a relaxed form, delivering a flattering fit for wearers. The color palette seems to be quite muted with black, white, blue, and green.
