Tap into the pulse of the football scene with this exciting roundup of fresh looks, iconic returns, and much more. From the ridiculous to the sublime, the beautiful to the hideous, the hot and the not-so-hot, get ready for the ride.

At the Crossroads of Football and Culture

With the New Year in full swing, there’s a lot to catch up on. From Jude Bellingham’s retro-new look, the potential revival of a coveted adidas Predator, to David Moyes’ homecoming at Goodison Park, there’s plenty to discuss.

adidas Unveils Golden Zidane Preds

adidas has kicked off 2025 with a bang, launching Predator 25 in a fiery red colorway. The German sportswear giant shows no signs of slowing down. Their latest treat? A teaser for the much anticipated re-release of Zinedine Zidane’s gold Predator Precision from 2001. One glimpse of the French football icon unboxing these classic Preds, and we’re hooked. We can’t wait to see what’s next.

Art of Football x Gillette

Nothing screams summer like the nostalgic tunes from Gillette adverts. Tom Grennan’s remake of the 1989 classic ‘The Best a Man Can Get’ has become the unofficial anthem of England’s campaign at Euro 2024. To celebrate this, Gillette joined forces with Art of Football to create a vintage shirt, featuring a bold white collar, a geometric blue and black print, and of course, the iconic Gillette branding. The best part? All profits go to the charity, Football Beyond Borders.

Questionable Dives by Raya

The FA Cup 2025 saw Manchester United pull off a thrilling win over Arsenal. While United’s penalties were spot-on, Arsenal’s David Raya’s diving left much to be desired. His unorthodox moves, diving prematurely and in the wrong direction, had heads turning.

PSG x Jordan Wings

Paris Saint-Germain continues to keep the style game strong with their latest collaboration with Nike’s Jordan. The fresh ‘WINGS’ collection, featuring the new ‘Jumpman’ fourth kit, is set to land just in time for fashion week. The collection exudes style and luxury, true to the Parisian spirit.

New Balance Furon v8

New Balance has unveiled the latest version of their speed boot, the Furon v8, with input from Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka. But while the design is sleek, the colorway, a repeat of Saka’s signature Furon v7, leaves us wanting more. A fresh paintjob would have been a welcome change.

Return of the Tucked-in Shirt

Jude Bellingham is turning heads both on and off the pitch. The Real Madrid and England superstar is channeling Zidane vibes by tucking in his shirt, giving a nod to a bygone era. Kylian Mbappe is also joining the tucked-in shirt trend.

Personal Turmoil for Guardiola

Pep Guardiola’s professional life seems to be taking a toll on his personal life. Reports suggest his decision to extend his contract with Manchester City has led to the end of his 30-year marriage with Cristina Serra.

Aina’s Authentic Snapchat

Nottingham Forest’s Ola Aina is giving his Snapchat followers a real insight into his day-to-day life. His posts, filled with honest reflections and internal dialogues, are refreshing and entertaining.

Moyes Returns to Everton

David Moyes’ reappointment as Everton manager has fans feeling nostalgic about the mid-2000s. Despite the old adage of never going back in football, we’re hopeful Moyes can bring back the good old days.

Tottenham’s Blue Away Strip at NLD

In what seems to be a violation of the unwritten rule that the north London derby should always be red vs white, Tottenham showed up in their blue away strip. A controversial move that has sparked debates.
