’90s-Inspired Fashion: Umbro and Children of the Discordance Collaboration
The latest development sees Umbro partnering with the Japanese label Children of the Discordance for a distinctive seven-piece collection, drawing from Umbro’s celebrated ’90s designs. Founded by Hideaki Shikama in 2011, Children of the Discordance is renowned for its sophisticated upcycled garments, which combine Shikama’s personal collection with vintage pieces sourced globally.
Retro Collection Release: Umbro x Children of the Discordance
The new collection from Shikama takes inspiration from Umbro’s iconic football apparel of the 1990s, particularly the Manchester United teams led by Eric Cantona. The collaboration features reinterpreted designs, including a Manchester United logo creatively altered to read “Children of the Discordance.” The collection is characterized by its innovative use of split-designed tops and bottoms, melding technical fabrics and vibrant prints with denim, cable wool jumpers, and patchwork details.
