Aries Join In On The Umbro Centenary …

Joining in on the Double Diamond’s centenary celebrations, luxury streetwear brand Aries have partnered with Umbro for a third instalment of their much-celebrated collaboration, which this time is inspired by Umbro’s rich football archive and their historic relationship with the English game.

Umbro have been celebrating 100 years of existence this year, and they’ve been doing so in style, dropping fresh collaborative collections with the likes of Slam Jam and Palace, as well as dropping their own centenary collection. Now they’re once again partnering with Aries, having partnered with the luxury streetwear label on two previous occasions. This time, as well as the 100-year anniversary, there’s also one eye on the impending Euros and Umbro’s links with the England national team, with the collection featuring a “red, white, and blue” 8-piece set of Aries sportswear.

The collaboration capsule includes two classic short sleeve football jerseys, a long sleeve goalkeeper jersey, football shorts and kit accessories plus a limited-edition navy-blue lace football jersey, exclusive to Aries with a run of only 100 “centenary” shirts.

Across the football jerseys the Aries archive “Aries A-Rose” graphic has been resurrected and repeated throughout as a subtle all-over rose print backdrop – an ode to the “English Rose”. The traditional jersey’s come in both red and white with the renowned “Aries Temple” logo adorned to the left of the chest and Umbro’s “Double Diamond” logo to the right.

The Goalkeeper jersey is a tonal black print of mythical Lion’s, representative of England’s history with the legendary creature, and Aries notorious mythological references hidden within the all-over print including the Latin motto; “If you kill it, it will come back stronger”.

The original “Centenary” graphic emblazoned on the back of all jerseys is the number “100”. This graphic has been created combining the Aries x Umbro iconic collaborative font seen in previous collaborations, and Umbro’s “double diamond” logo amalgamating all three elements of this celebration collaboration: Aries, Umbro and 100 years.
