Italian sportswear giant Kappa has teamed up with streetwear label Cruel Pancake to unveil a one-off limited capsule collection titled Maestro of the Game – a nostalgic nod to the romance of 1990s and 2000s Italian football, fused with modern streetwear sensibilities.
The capsule consists of just four unisex pieces, each carrying strong retro football DNA.
Leading the line is an oversized cream zip-up jacket with pink accents, a design that feels as though it was lifted straight from Serie A training grounds of the past. It is joined by a long-sleeved jersey with bold pink stripes, a co-branded logo, and “Maestro of the Game” emblazoned across the back.
A short-sleeved jersey follows, keeping things cleaner with white fabric and delicate pink pinstripes, while a pair of matching white-and-pink socks rounds off the set.
The Maestro of the Game collection is extremely limited, and will only be available for one day: October 4, via a pop-up at 118 Rue de Turenne, 75003 Paris. Visitors to the store will have the rare chance to pick up these exclusive pieces before they disappear.
For collectors, streetwear fans, and lovers of Calcio’s golden era alike, this capsule serves as a fleeting but heartfelt love letter to the beautiful game.
