Joleon Lescott is in talks with Manchester City regarding a proposed casual clothing line aimed at fashion and sport enthusiasts in their twenties. Since participating in Shay Given's Fashion Kicks event last year, Lescott has focused on developing a fashion identity that could be transformed into a brand. He’s not alone; David Beckham is perhaps the most famous among British players to have created a clothing line and a perfume Ralph Lauren Polo Down Jacket, but Rio Ferdinand has also had success. So, what is the likely Lescott look, and how can you achieve it without paying designer prices?
I bought this for my husband, and he loved it. He thought it was very comfortable, felt soft, and kept him cool. One rumor suggests that the new brand will feature his distinctive scar (from a car accident when he was five) as a trademark, although that seems unlikely for Ralph Lauren Polo Shirts. However, it may appear as a line art design on vest T-shirts, which seem to be one of his favorite garments. While the clothing will probably incorporate Man City colors at least in the first couple of years, he leans towards grey Polo Ralph Lauren T-Shirts, black, and red as a clothing palette.
Sportswear will be a significant feature if the line goes ahead, and we can expect to see pale blue, grey, and black vests, possibly with that scar as a watermark-style print on the front, along with hoodies and track trousers. If you want the look, aim to buy vests, maybe getting them printed with your name in a gothic tattoo style Custom-Fit Dual Match Polo or with a scar emblem if you, like Lescott, have such a feature. Focus on combining vests with more formal jackets or hoodies with designer denim and boots to achieve the luxurious sports look that Lescott is likely to aim for.
