The Sports Authentic Collection revives some of Fred Perry's most iconic sportswear styles, from the ‘70s and beyond. Contrasting colours and man-made fibres were introduced to team kits in the ‘90s, making them bright and durable. It was these styles that encouraged the evolution of sportswear as streetwear, and the track jacket took centre stage in the Britpop era. Made from a tricot fabric that replicates the original, the white enamel-coated zip is a reference to the cash-strapped time of the era, when zips and branding were generic to all colours.
