With the Knicks in the Finals, NBA coverage is practically impossible to avoid right now. But another sporting event is about to take center stage — the World Cup, which officially kicks off tomorrow. Sure, you could gather your friends around the TV for the matches, but there’s another way to get in on the action: embrace the emerging soccer jersey trend. Styled with slouchy jeans and flip-flops, the sporty staple feels less like fan merch and more like a bona fide fashion statement.
Fashion brands seem to be fully on board. Earlier this month, Umbro, an English sportswear company, teamed up with American Eagle on a soccer-inspired capsule featuring jerseys, track pants, and mesh shorts. A handful of under-the-radar labels are championing the sporty tops, too. Among them is Carolina K, which recently debuted a limited-edition Argentina soccer jersey, La Diez, handmade by female artisans from 100% Pima cotton. Then there’s Cossa New York, a brand founded in 2025 by friends Aleksija Vujicic, Amelia Mehta, and Lia Porcelli, that reimagines authentic vintage soccer jerseys as one-of-a-kind, fashion-forward pieces.
