King Features has revealed a new collaboration between fashion house Coach and the classic forearm-flexing sailor, Popeye.
The new fashion line with Coach is the latest collaboration as the brand honours the character’s 95th birthday this year, while expanding his presence with consumers through a number of top of the line lifestyle offerings.
The line introduces a variety of soft cotton t-shirts, cozy wool and cashmere sweaters, relaxed fit cardigans and a glove tanned leather Rogue Bag, featuring early black and white illustrations of the spinach-loving Sailor Man posing across each item.
“The new Popeye X Coach collaboration merges timeless pop culture with the sophistication and craftsmanship that Coach is known for,” commented Carla Silva, svp, general manager and head of global licensing at King Features. “It’s an incredible blend of nostalgia and modern elegance, creating something truly special for both fans of Popeye and fashion enthusiasts alike. We look forward to providing another way for fans to showcase their love for the cartoon icon.”
