Yardsale Links With Sergio Tacchini To Celebrate Luxury Leisurewear
Written by SOURCE on June 30, 2022
Yardsale has teamed up with heritage tennis brand Sergio Tacchini to unveil a collaborative collection celebrating the duo’s European roots and affinity for luxury, ‘90s leisurewear.
Putting Yardsale’s retro British spin on classic Tacchini sportswear staples, standouts include a head-to-toe cotton terrycloth tracksuit and a cotton piqué polo complete with oversized throwback-inspired graphics printed across the shoulder. The collection also includes a custom lockup motif, which has been applied to a premium hoodie and tee, and a curved visor 6-panel cap detailed with embroidered co-branding.
Coinciding with the collection is a short film inspired by Mathieu Kassovitz’s La Haine. Depicting a day in the life of three marginalised youths living in the outskirts of Paris, the collaboration pays homage to the film’s iconic visuals and its main character, Saïd, who famously sports a Tacchini tracksuit throughout the movie.
The video features Yardsale’s Stanley Pradel and his crew of friends who live in the suburbs of Paris. Shot in the Parisian “banlieue” neighbourhoods, the film also includes a cameo from La Haine’s Saïd Taghmaoui.
