Umbro, Tempalay, and FREAK'S STORE collaborated on an FW25 capsule that merges British athletic heritage with Japanese creativity. The collection centers on a velour track jacket and wide-leg track pants that emphasize fashion-forward silhouettes over pure performance. A leatherette stand-up jacket complements the velour pieces, introducing vintage edge within a hybrid sportswear context. Colorways in red, olive green, and black provide versatile styling options for casual layering or bold statements. The velour fabrication reframes track suits as comfortable, sophisticated wardrobe pieces. Tempalay and FREAK'S STORE inject musical and local curation influences into the capsule's aesthetic.
Collaborations in fashion often bring together worlds that seem distant at first glance, and the new FW25 capsule from Umbro, Tempalay, and FREAK'S STORE exemplifies this approach. On one side is Umbro, a British sportswear institution with over a century of history in athletic apparel. On the other is Tempalay, a Japanese indie rock band known for its experimental sound and offbeat cultural influence.
At the heart of the collaboration are two silhouettes: a track jacket and wide-leg track pants. Both pay homage to Umbro's legacy in performance wear, but their execution leans more toward fashion than sport. The standout detail is the velour fabric-plush, textured, and unmistakably retro. Once synonymous with 1970s and early 2000s streetwear, velour here functions as a nostalgic material reimagined for modern wardrobes.
