FILA x Oliver Spencer

Oliver Spencer and FILA have collaborated on a sustainably produced collection inspired by FILA’s rich sportswear heritage and that takes its inspiration from Wes Anderson’s 2001 classic, The Royal Tenenbaums.

The versatile collection consists of FILA classics seen in the Hayward Jersey Jacket, Benedict Polo, and matching Ari Jersey Shorts. Harking back to the timeless style of iconic FILA tennis players from the 1980s, the collection brings an updated twist on heritage styles. Oliver uses the influence of Dapper Dan to FILA’s iconic sportswear style with his own contemporary take on lifestyle; giving the collection a fluid easy-to-wear feeling. With sustainability at the core of Oliver Spencer for years now, the new collaboration continues their efforts to create ethically sourced, sustainable goods. Alongside this, all packaging is made from sustainable, recycled materials.

For this collection Oliver has specifically developed a terry-towel corduroy that is super-soft and exudes richness of colour. Hero pieces made in Oliver Spencer’s Auckland Navy, Auckland Red and Auckland Cream pay tribute to the classic FILA colourways seen on and off the court for generations.
