Manchester United unveils Paul Smith collaboration

Capsule collection of graphic accessories will mix Paul Smith designs with club’s heritage.

Manchester United has extended its existing formalwear partnership with Paul Smith, revealing a new capsule collection of graphic accessories which mix the brand’s designs with the club’s football heritage.

The collaboration centres around two photo prints featuring vintage Manchester United scarves and rosettes. Paul Smith was an innovator in photo print during the 1970s and 1980s, and these unique prints reference that fact while celebrating Manchester United’s rich sporting history.

Products in the range include a laptop sleeve, a wash bag, notebooks, leather wallets and cardholders, plus iPhone 8 cases.

A colourful striped design features on a wool scarf and pair of socks, while the collection also includes two striped cufflink designs and a tie with the Manchester United crest.

Paul Smith has been the official formalwear partner of Manchester United for the past decade.

The new collaboration follows on from a deal with True Religion, which saw the launch of a range of club-branded denim wear.
