Palace x Gucci football jerseys
Skateboard brands have always been in the forefront of streetwear culture and it's always found a way to be inspired by football.
As recently as 2019, Palace along with adidas designed a jersey and capsule collection for Italian giants Juventus.
An unreal collaboration which certified football's influence on contemporary streetwear.
This time, Palace have made football jerseys with another Italian juggernaut in the form of Gucci.
The three designs take inspiration from retro football jerseys in terms of construction and from the Italian National Team with a striking blue jersey with stand-out Gucci print embossed on it.
The other two designs take inspiration from lower-division Spanish side CD Pinzon and Chelsea's 2003-04 white Umbro away jersey.

Palace and Gucci added their own spin to CD Pinzon's strawberry jersey. A unique design that stands out for its enlarged images of the sweet fruit.
As per Footyheadlines, Palace and Gucci's white jersey with the latter's green and red colours down the middle takes inspiration from Chelsea's aforementioned kit.
Italy's NSS Sports on the other hand, says the jersey is similar to Juventus' third jersey from 2011-12 season.
