Soccer jerseys are the symbol of more than one sport, representing sports rivalries, football memories, and inspiration for fashion designers. With this mindset, Losdejos - aka Jason Lee, designer creator of the brand FOKOHAELA - has drawn a concept kit that plays with those elements: the London rivalry between Arsenal and Tottenham, and one of the most particular Spurs' shirts which has been recently revamped by Supreme in SS18 collection. The result is a concept kit that recalls the design used by Umbro in 1992 that Tottenham wore for the first time in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup against Feyenoord, but uses the social colors and the Arsenal crest and the SUPREME graphic on the chest. As in all the designs by Losdejos, the details make the difference: on the back of the collar there is the word "FUCK OFF", reiterated by a middle finger inside the number nine. The Arsenal sponsor has been changed to "Do not fly Emirates", on both sleeves there are two custom patches. My favorite detail? The "dry fit" logo changed to "Hype fit" in the right corner of the shirt.
