When Anne Hathaway wore an Arsenal jersey over her shoulder at The Devil Wears Prada 2 premiere fans all over London looked at the actress in a new light. The support for the club was loud as they reached for the Champions League Final beating Atletico Madrid. It was the first time in 20 years the club reached the final and the second time in Arsenal’s 140 year history. It has been the club’s longest unbeaten run and so begins the countdown to Budapest on May 30.

To honor the 140-year history of the club, adidas and Arsenal unveiled the adidas x Arsenal x Places + Faces collection, a collaboration that authentically merges football, community, and individuality through the lens of London.

The collection includes long- and short-sleeve shirts, a track top, track pants, shorts, hoodie, graphic tee, and Climacool jacket, alongside accessories such as a bandana, waist bag, scarf, and socks. The overall colour palette draws from Arsenal’s iconic reds and deep burgundy tones, contrasted with black foundations and elevated through striking graphic branding and reflective detailing.

Built on a shared ethos of culture and identity, the collection brings together admired places, everyday people, and cultural icons—blending sport and street into one collective expression. Drawing inspiration from the energy of London, the range combine utilitarian styling, reflective elements, and bold branding synonymous with Places+Faces, resulting in pieces that feel like a wearable extension of the city’s street culture.

The campaign captures Arsenal beyond the pitch, spotlighting the environments that shape the club—from the training ground where homegrown pride is forged, to cultural community hubs that champion expression, and the supporters’ spaces that preserve legacy and loyalty.
