The rooster, symbol of Gallic pride, patriotism and the republican spirit, stands tall on this piece. The red sash at the waist echoes the republican tricolour, worn as a symbol of French identity since the Revolution. Les Bleus. Two stars. Number 98 for 1998, the first, on home soil, in front of a nation that held its breath.

THE STORY BEHIND THE COLLECTION

Every Ganxo Studio piece is a handmade natural linen shirt, crafted by hand in Barcelona, paired with an organic cotton scarf. The jersey draws from American football aesthetics with oversized cut, dropped shoulders, V-neck and bold number on the chest. A nod to the host nation woven into every single piece in the collection. The scarf is placed following the traditional dress codes of every country, on the head, around the neck, across the chest or at the waist. This is not a reproduction. This is the only one that will ever exist.
