Can you imagine Lionel Messi in a short pants tailor suit? Well, get used to the idea because the Argentine's club has just announced its collaboration with the American designer Thom Browne, known for his formal clothes, but with a funny point and his three stripes in white, blue and red topping each piece.

From now on, Fernando Valverde's team will wear the signature suits on their trips away from home in the Spanish league and also in Champions League matches.

The founder of the brand has stated in an official statement that he is excited about this collaboration. "It is an honor to dress a team with values similar to ours. […] We hope that the self-confidence and resilience that players project when they wear our clothes inspire future generations," he said.

Rodrigo Bazán, CEO of the firm, has confirmed that this is the first time that a luxury brand collaborates with the Catalan club and that it all started after receiving an unexpected call from the team. "We realized that our values were completely aligned, which made us believe that we could do something truly special together," he said in a statement to WWD.
