Italian sportswear giant Kappa has actually partnered with streetwear tag Cruel Pancake to introduce a one-off limited pill collection labelled Master of the Video game — a timeless nod to the romance of 1990 s and 2000 s Italian football, fused with contemporary streetwear sensibilities.
The pill contains just 4 unisex items, each lugging solid retro football DNA.
Leading the line is a large lotion zip-up jacket with pink accents, a layout that feels as though it was raised right from Serie A training grounds of the past. It is joined by a long-sleeved jersey with vibrant pink red stripes, a co-branded logo, and “Genius of the Video game” decorated across the back.
A short-sleeved jacket follows, keeping things cleaner with white material and fragile pink pinstripes, while a pair of matching white-and-pink socks rounds off the set.
The Genius of the Game collection is exceptionally minimal, and will only be available for one day : October 4, using a pop-up at 118 Rue de Turenne, 75003 Paris. Site visitors to the store will have the rare possibility to grab these special items before they go away.
For enthusiasts, streetwear followers, and lovers of Calcio’s golden era alike, this pill serves as a fleeting however sincere love letter to the stunning video game.
