Sly Dog x Ginger Wings x CASH ONLY x Meyba Collab Kit

When we first heard about this collaboration, our team was scratching our heads. Sly Dog premium Caribbean Rum, Jack Blumenthal’s legendary fried chicken spot Ginger Wings, UK house DJ CASH ONLY, and his label Famous When Dead Records teaming up with Spanish brand Meyba for a soccer jersey? It sounded like someone was just throwing random brands into a hat and picking four. But after getting our hands on this release, we can confidently say this is one of the most thoughtful collaborations we’ve seen all year. This isn’t some cash-grab nonsense – it’s actually fire.

Our research team dug into Meyba’s history, and their street cred is undeniable. These are the guys who made kits for FC Barcelona’s Dream Team back in the ’80s, so they definitely know what they’re doing when it comes to football shirts that actually matter. What impressed us most is how this seemingly random group of collaborators actually makes sense when you see the final product. While some of the big sportswear brands keep pumping out the same boring templates for every team on the planet, this thing is genuinely unique and has serious personality.

From a design perspective, our style team is obsessed with the execution here. The ribbed rounded neck and sleeve cuff construction immediately reminded us of those legendary Brazil jerseys from the ’98 World Cup – you know, the ones Ronaldo wore during his peak. It’s got that vintage football vibe but doesn’t feel like it’s trying too hard to be retro. We’re also loving this midnight blue and orange colorway – it’s gorgeous and bold in a way that most brands are too scared to attempt. This is the kind of jersey that photographs well whether you’re on the field or just throwing it on for casual wear.

What really caught our attention are those classic Meyba touches throughout the design. The shoulder and sleeve bands are a direct callback to those iconic Barcelona kits, and they look incredible. It’s not copying – it’s more like honoring the legacy while doing something completely new. The Sly Dog eyes logo placement on the front is perfectly executed too. We’ve reviewed countless jerseys where the sponsor completely ruins the aesthetic, but this one actually enhances the overall look. Whoever handled the creative direction clearly understands how modern branding should work.

The attention to detail is where this jersey really separates itself from the pack. That sublimated number 25 on the back for 2025 looks crisp and won’t peel off after multiple washes like those cheap heat-pressed numbers we see everywhere. The Cash Only Fans and Ginger Wings patches on the lower sleeves are positioned perfectly – subtle enough to feel exclusive but visible enough for those in the know to appreciate. These are the kind of thoughtful touches that our team always looks for in premium releases.

After testing the fit across different body types on our team, we can confirm this thing runs true to size, which is always clutch. The cut is clearly designed to complement athletic builds without being restrictive or uncomfortable during actual play. The fabric quality impressed us too – substantial enough to feel premium but breathable enough for performance. Whether you’re actually playing soccer, hitting the gym, or just want to look good while hanging out, this jersey delivers on all fronts.

Our final verdict? This collaboration actually works on every level. It’s built for good times whether you’re on the pitch, in the gym, on vacation, or just living your life. In a market flooded with uninspired templates and lazy partnerships, this Sly Dog x Ginger Wings x CASH ONLY x Meyba creation stands out as something genuinely special. We’re calling it now – this is going to be one of those jerseys people are still talking about years from now. If you can get your hands on one, don’t hesitate.
