Arsenal fans know that when it comes to off-pitch style, the club rarely misses. Earning their reputation as the Premier League’s unofficial “Fashion FC,” Arsenal and adidas Originals have teamed up once again, this time joining forces with iconic London-based streetwear brand PLACES+FACES.

Dropping in early 2026, this highly anticipated capsule collection is a love letter to London street culture, blending 90s nostalgia with modern, utilitarian aesthetics. Whether you are heading to the Emirates or just styling out on the weekend, this drop is designed to get you noticed on the terraces and the streets alike.
A Celebration of Football Heritage and Streetwear
The Arsenal x PLACES+FACES collaboration takes the passionate energy of the club’s fanbase and filters it through a distinct, underground lens. PLACES+FACES, originally known for their raw hip-hop photography and highly sought-after merch, brings a moody, gothic edge to the traditional red and white. The campaign itself highlights the everyday energy of the capital, proving this gear is meant to be worn out in the wild.
Key Pieces from the Collection
The collection moves away from standard replica gear, offering premium lifestyle pieces built for everyday wear. Standouts from the drop include:

• The L/S Statement Shirt: The undisputed crown jewel of the collection. It features a black base heavily patterned with an all-over “AFCP+F” gothic red print. Contrasting white sleeves, a retro V-neck collar, the classic adidas trefoil, and a unique Arsenal cannon flanked by cherubs make this a massive statement piece.

• The Satin-Look Track Jacket: A luxurious take on a terrace classic. Made with a premium, velour/satin feel, it utilizes a subtle, tonal version of the all-over gothic print, finished with striking red embroidered cannons on the shoulders.
• Heavyweight Graphic Tees: Minimalist on the front, bold on the back. The heavy-cotton tees feature a massive, gothic “P+AFC” logo stamped across the reverse.
• Utilitarian Essentials: Rounding out the collection are track bottoms, premium shorts, a hooded top, and a heavy-duty GORE-TEX jacket for battling the unpredictable London weather.
The Details That Matter
What makes this collection so successful is the attention to detail. By tapping into the heritage of the adidas Originals line and leaning away from massive, corporate sponsor logos, the capsule feels more like a high-end fashion line than standard club merchandise. The fusion of the historic Arsenal cannon with the contemporary, streetwear-focused typography of PLACES+FACES bridges the gap between football history and modern street culture perfectly.
