# Mismatched Vintage Sportswear Sobec's Fall/Winter Collection Features Roughly Stitched Apparel By Riley von Niessen | Published 2016-11-06 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sobec References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2016/11/sobec-fw16) & [sobecrebuild](http://www.sobecrebuild.com/) Sobec is a French label that specializes in [custom pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2tone-jersey-collection) -- with its latest line featuring different vintage tees married with others. Highly eclectic, the pieces offered in the Fall/Winter series vary a lot, with some flaunting overtly contrasted components while others are carefully chosen to match. In addition, some of Sobec's shirts features mismatched sizes -- meaning that both halves of the piece fall at different places on the body. With all the apparel coming from [classic brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/90sinspired-soccer-collection) or celebrating well-loved teams or bands, each is likely to appeal to the many consumers who have a deep appreciation for [eccentric vintage fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tss). For example, one that's offered shows Thrasher's branding on one side and Bob Marley on the other. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Mismatched Vintage Sportswear:** Opportunity to create a line of vintage sportswear that combines different tees and features mismatched sizes for an eclectic and eccentric fashion statement. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** Opportunity for fashion brands to tap into the demand for mismatched vintage sportswear and provide custom pieces with a quirky twist. - **Apparel Retail:** Opportunity for apparel retailers to curate collections of mismatched vintage sportswear, catering to the growing market of consumers who appreciate unique and eclectic fashion. - **Custom Clothing:** Opportunity for custom clothing businesses to offer personalized vintage sportswear options, allowing customers to create their own mismatched designs and unique fashion statements. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pattern-Heavy Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-new-collection.md) - [Subculture-Themed Generational Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildest-ones-yet.md) - [Retro Sports Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marty-supreme.md) - [Traditional Football-Themed Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mitre-and-lack.md) - [Old-School Soccer Apparel Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/90sinspired-soccer-collection.md) - [Art-Inspired Streetwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitesse.md) - [Heritage-Inspired Bold Workwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-plus-fw25.md) - [Muted Sportswear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/song-for-the-mute-adidas.md) - [Collaborative Dynamic Eclectic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tss.md)
