Umbro releases second Nigel Cabourn collaboration

Umbro has just launched its second collaboration with designer Nigel Cabourn.

Riffing on Cabourn’s military-led design expertise plus the designer’s Army Gym stores and loungewear collection, the new collection takes its lead from vintage British Army recruit PT gear and the Army Gymnastic Staff of the era. Reimagined for a contemporary consumer, the nine-piece collection joins the dots between retro training uniforms and casualised gymwear to deliver a range of styles which underlines Nigel Cabourn’s archive-informed design personality while ticking today’s trend boxes.

Highlights include a fresh interpretation of Umbro’s iconic popover Drill Top, reimagined as the POH Training Top in loopback marl-grey cotton jersey. Priced at £135, key details include a self-fabric patch chest pocket with a rubber closure button, a ribbed under-arm gusset, and ‘UMBRO NC’ rear print branding. As with all the tops, this style features a distinctive cotton herringbone neck tape.
