Admiral Sports Revives Football Legacy with Bob Marley Collaboration
Celebrating the music legend's football and music heritage.
In a tribute that blends music, sport, and style, Admiral Sports has unveiled a new capsule: The three-way Bob Marley x Mundial x Admiral collection, inspired by the music icon’s love for football during his 1977 visit to London’s Battersea Park.
This launch, in collaboration with football culture magazine MUNDIAL, coincides with the release of “Bob Marley: One Love,” celebrating Marley’s profound connection to the sport and his spiritual home in London.
During the Exodus album’s London recording sessions, Marley and The Wailers’ members made Battersea Park their playground, inviting locals to join in their football matches. These gatherings, where the tracksuits and the iconic yellow “Rico” T-shirt became symbols of London’s style and musical lore, serve as the inspiration behind the Bob Marley x Admiral collaboration.
To commemorate the launch, MUNDIAL and Admiral have created a short film that delves into Marley’s love for football and his influence on the local community. The film includes contributions from local music enthusiasts and community leaders who share their memories of playing football with Marley.
Fans of Bob Marley and football can explore the Bob Marley x Mundial x Admiral collection and feel the rhythm of Tuff Gong through this unique collaboration, now available on the official Admiral website.
