About
Vincentius’ products aren’t licensed by clubs or federations but in each and every case the clever use of city, country and team nicknames makes it extremely clear as to which team is being celebrated. For example, “Los Blancos” and “Madrid” are definitely Real Madrid while “Chelsea” with a reference of London included is obviously Chelsea FC.
As is often the case with non-licensed gear, Vincentius’ designers aren’t constrained by big brand politics, rules and reviewers and can be utterly creative. The result is a series of high-end looking snapbacks, strapbacks, beanies, vests / tanktops, and sweatshirts. Here’s an up-close look at some of them.
Red Devils Reversible Vest / Tank
A vest in Europe, a tank top in North America, this is a Manchester United top that will serve fans of the Red Devils well during the summer and early autumn of 2018.
The true to size-fitting shirt is made of high quality Man United red polyester mesh with a ribbed neckline and arm openings. It is indeed reminiscent of a throwback NBA jersey (incidentally in the famous colors of the Chicago Bulls) and is therefore dual sport.
Manchester United’s nick name of “Red Devils” is printed in white on the front with “Manchester” just above it. There is also a well done Vincentius jocktag on the lower left bottom and the brand’s logo on left chest area.
Flip the tank over and you’ve got the same top in Manchester United’s often used third kit black thanks to the use of double mesh.
The Liverpool snowflake beanie is a stylish cooler weather piece of headgear that will fans of The Reds and the Premier League will covet.
It has a timeless beanie look that includes a snowflake graphic encircling it. Most of the hat in Liverpool FC’s famed red and white including the brilliant pom at the top.
“Liverpool” is embroidered on the front with a quality vegan leather crest on the backside bearing the Vincentius logo.
The beanie is thick, warm and made of a wool blend that keeps the head and ears comfortable on the ski slopes or elsewhere while representing the always entertaining LFC.
Among the favorites to win 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia, France has amassed quite a following thanks to their wealth of talent on display.
Fans of Griezmann, Pogba, Kante and the rest of Les Bleus can show their support for the 1998 world champions with Vincentius’ France snapback.
The cap has a base in the distinctive and famed blue of the European soccer powerhouse with details in the red and white of the French national flag. “France” appears on its front via raised embroidery for a three-dimensional effect. The country’s name is outlined in red for a nice touch. The well-known saying of “ALLEZ LES BLEUS” is embroidered above the France text.
“Vincentius Apparel” is embroidered in an elegant cursive font on the back of the snapback above its opening and a contrasting snap in red. France fan or not, this is a must have during the World Cup.
