You'll know what we know.
Speaking of soccer players, we couldn’t help dredging up this recent pic of the Manchester United squad, dressed in newly-sewn off-the-field uniforms courtesy of Mr. Paul Smith. They’re a pretty staid bunch, so he couldn’t get too crazy, but he managed a few dandyish touches. Our favorite: purple shoelaces on the black oxfords. Well played, gentlemen.
The great Sir Paul Smith may have recently signed on to design new off-pitch duds for the Manchester United Football Club (that’s soccer to you), but the sporting supermen were not always in need of such sartorial succor.
Back in the ’50s they wore good old classic club blazers when not actively pummeling opponents, and needed no other decoration, as Bonhams upcoming Sporting Sale demonstrates.
