Cult Kits have designed a collection in collaboration with SCAA, a team with over 100 years of history that celebrates the shirts of the late 90s. Accompanied by select lifestyle pieces, the brand originally known for selling thousands of vintage football shirts, have now marked their first official curated team collection, with home and away shirts that celebrate passed designs from the 1997-1998 season.
The collection is headlined by two key pieces, a home and away jersey, with each design looking to draw on the bold designs running through Asian football shirts. From the colours, patterns, sponsors and fits of the 90s era, Cult Kits have looked to develop a curated collection that celebrates one of football’s sleeping giants.
Consisting of eight pieces, the Cult Kits x SCAA Legacy collection includes; home and away jerseys, club training tee(s), charcoal and salmon premium cotton tee(s), socks and cap. The collection also includes special edition training bibs, based on the classic team training accessories of the era.
Respecting the past and looking to the future, the Legacy collection draws further inspiration from football’s subculture and its existing lifestyle fashions. The collection aims to reignite the fan base through a younger fan’s perspective, as well as the nostalgia of the late 90s, early 2000s style of the SCAA.
