“coexistence of cultures”

Dellafuente F.C. - the fictional football club founded by La Ti Go and the artist Dellafuente - is launching the new official tracksuit in collaboration with Nike. This new piece of sports gear is formed by a set of pants and a high collar jacket with zipper made by 100% polyester. The tracksuit is designed in black and white and includes a shield that represents the values and culture of the club. Looking closely at the crest you can find the symbols of the moon and the star (the Islamic moon and the Jewish star of David), these symbols represent the union between cultures.
Dellafuente F.C. wanted to highlight and transmit this concept of “coexistence of cultures” that is why the team decided to choose the remains of the Arab wall in Madrid as the location for the lookbook photo shoot and use the notorious Nike Hijab Pro as part of the styling. This location encompasses the inspiration of the Muslim, the Christian and the Hebrew culture as it is located between the ruins of the Arab wall (Muslim culture) and a Nasrid inspired fountain with the shape of the Star of David (Hebrew culture) and close by the Cathedral of Almudena (Christian culture) .
The tracksuit will be available online from Tuesday 26 th of December dellafuentefc online store.
