Barcelona-based sportswear brand Meyba has embarked on a creative journey with none other than The Beatles to introduce a distinctive limited-edition collection. This collaborative effort draws inspiration from The Beatles’ legendary music, films, and images, resulting in a unique assortment of shirts that pay homage to the iconic band’s extensive legacy.
The inaugural collection is anchored in a monochrome exploration of the iconic Abbey Road album artwork, originally unveiled in 1969. The renowned Zebra crossing and the classic black and white ‘Long T’ logos of The Beatles serve as pivotal elements, ingeniously integrated across the collection in various methods and formats. Meyba has seamlessly blended this globally recognized iconography with their signature cuts, contemporary fashion shapes, and styles, resulting in a truly iconic and exclusive lineup.
Founded in the 1940s in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, by Josep Mestre and Joanquim, Meyba achieved prominence in the 1980s as FC Barcelona’s first branded kit supplier. Over the ensuing decade, the distinctive Meyba “M” adorned football legends such as Maradona, Michael Laudrup, Ronald Koeman, and a young Pep Guardiola, all under the management of Johan Cruyff. Meyba’s influence extends globally as they continue to collaborate with and supply professional clubs worldwide.
While maintaining its football heritage, Meyba has evolved to offer a collection of fashion-forward lifestyle products. Recent collaborations include renowned entities like FC Real Bristol from Japan, Rave Skateboards in Paris, The Huey P Newton Foundation in Oakland, California, and FSTBL B & Voll-Damm in Barcelona.
The revelation of the Meyba x The Beatles collection marks a significant moment for the brand. Meyba expresses, “The worlds of football, music, and fashion have never been so closely aligned. Working with Apple Corps on this collaboration with The Beatles is the pinnacle of this movement. We leveraged our heritage and forward-thinking design to create a never-before-seen collaboration that will undoubtedly resonate with music and football enthusiasts worldwide.”
