Nike and adidas have both shown their hands in the soccer lifestyle game and a number of independent brands have proven that they deserve to be there with clean type, retro styling, sharp design, or some combination of the above. Live Breathe Futbol is just that and the brand’s 45th Minute Collection, their latest, is an extension of the values that they have preached from the beginning.
Lifestyle: Live Breathe Futbol drops 45th Minute collection
Not that long ago, it seemed like there was a real lack of well-designed soccer gear that could be worn by aficionados of the field. Over the last few years though, the market has really blown up.
Modeled by the likes of Maurice Edu, Amobi Okugo, Ethan White, and more, LBF's new collection is most definitely inspired by soccer players and on-pitch soccer style but translates the look to everyday life. That is evident in pieces like the "Shot Stopper" crew neck sweater which features a padded elbow design inspired by goalkeepers.
The collection also introduces the "Pitch Invaders" sweater in heather grey, blue, and red for a more rugged look that is inspired by the "hardcore, relentless fans" that call the terraces home. The 45th Minute collection is rounded out by the "Architect" t-shirt, which is an homage to Juventus and Italy midfielder Andrea Pirlo and his vision.
The collection is available now with prices ranging from $30-$50 per piece.
