Product Insights
FIFA 1904's Circular Emblem Cap, designed by Marcus Clayton (ex-LVMH, Fenty, Givenchy, Alexander Wang), anchors FIFA's debut ready-to-wear collection—co-founded by a former YZY Gap president and a Barnsley F.C. minority owner, and retailed at Selfridges. At CA$79 ($55 USD), it's the most accessible piece in a luxury range up to $995. Its rigid curved visor—a mid-19th-century design—blocks overhead sunlight, while the cotton twill weave breathes and resists tearing, though it requires hand washing and air drying to preserve shape.
