Adidas and football legend David Beckham have teamed up to launch the highly anticipated adidas x David Beckham signature Originals apparel collection.
This collaboration celebrates the vintage charm of 70s fashion while infusing it with contemporary flair, resulting in an off-pitch collection that’s equal parts nostalgic and modern. Designed with a keen eye for detail and craftsmanship, this range is a must-have for the fashion-forward crowd who value timeless style.
The collection pays homage to the iconic looks of the 70s, blending bold prints, vibrant hues, and unexpected design elements with sleek, clean lines. Each piece is crafted from premium materials and tailored for both comfort and a fashion-forward aesthetic.
Let’s take a closer look at the standout items:

Details include the iconic 3 stripes on the sleeves, an embroidered trefoil logo, elastic cuffs, adjustable hood, and front zip pockets. The mesh lining and full zip closure ensure a regular and comfortable fit.
2. Track Top: This regular-fit track top showcases an embossed trefoil print, complemented by 3 stripes along the sleeves. With a ribbed stand-up collar, ribbed cuffs, hem piping, and zip pockets, it’s a stylish nod to retro sportswear.

Sam Handy, SVP of Product and Design at Adidas, expressed his excitement about the collaboration: “We’re always looking at how we can break new ground in the world of football, and what better way to do so than with one of our longest-serving and most iconic partners? A name so synonymous with Predator, it was only right we handed over the creative reins to David to bring his vision to life through an adidas lens.”
Beckham himself shared his pride in the collection, stating, “I’ve loved designing this special Predator boot and collection with Adidas. It’s great to finally share what we’ve been working on with fans of the adidas Predator and Originals. For the first time ever, this Predator features the iconic trefoil. I’m so proud of how the collection has turned out.”
