Team FC and Under Armour go back to the Middle Ages
Is it perhaps time for a new football jersey?

A medieval-style core for men. The collaboration between the Spanish creative studio Equipo FC and the American sportswear brand Under Armour chooses a less traveled path to tell the passion around the world of football. Through "Wear your Armour, for any battle", the two brands bring the classic knight's armor to a modern and lifestyle level. The creative studio explores the journey of a knight who goes to the battlefield and rises to victory.
Under Armour was born as a brand focused on protecting its athletes on the field through the use of particularly advanced technology, while Equipo FC is based in Spain and in its collections can draw from a rich medieval heritage. It is here that the two brands converge and create this limited edition soccer kit and cotton t-shirt. These pieces combine current techniques such as 3D printing or reflective vinyl with ancient techniques such as screen printing, all applied to fabrics. The result is unique pieces that showcase craftsmanship. As a final touch, the photo shoot was done in a painterly style, with images captured in analog, a hand-painted background, and lighting that recalls vintage portraits.
