Eric Emanuel boasts very retro sporty fashion ensembles with a hint of nostalgia for the Spring/Summer 2018 collection. The line-up is minimalist as it is comprised of the absolute essentials — a t-shirt, a tearaway pant, a pair of basic shorts, a coaches jacket and a hoodie. Strongly informed by the style and culture of 90s high school gym class, the retro sporty fashion has a comfortable, carefree and playful aesthetic.
In addition, Eric Emanuel chose to incorporate sport-inspired graphics and a tri-fold colorway, consisting of gray, deep green and vibrant yellow. The clothing designs reference the game of dodgeball, as the tees sport a full-back graphic of a bullseye with the words 'DIVE,' 'DODGE,' 'DIP,' as well as a prominent typography that boasts 'TARGET.'
