Champion x Craig Green

Champion has teamed up with British menswear designer Craig Green on a capsule new collaboration. Featuring nine styles, Green has explored the Champion archives and drawn on the brand’s reputation for authentic, athletic menswear. 

Split into two main stories, for the first, Green took collegiate graphics from the Champion archives, each of uniforms supplied to American colleges in the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. Topstitched over these are patches that interpret numerical symbols, each signifying the specific decade. For Green, these patches reference the woven sports badges that are so much part of the collegiate uniform.

For the second story, Green explored the technical innovations that have given Champion its unsurpassed reputation for over 100 years. In a series of sweatshirts, hoodies and jerseys, Green looks at the ribbed gussets that brought movement, comfort and functionality to sportswear.
