The KidSuper and Mercedes-Benz collaborative football collection arrives on November 14, 2026, dropping at KidSuper stores, online and at selected global stockists. Priced between $125 and $595 (about €118 to €563), the 17-piece capsule combines the vintage visual language of national team merchandise with historical automotive references. To mark the launch, the brand hosted a public event at KidSuper Studios in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, featuring a display of Mercedes-Benz vehicles alongside music, food and drinks.

Designer Colm Dillane founded KidSuper in New York, building a reputation for multidisciplinary creative work spanning art, fashion and performance. The label presented its Fall/Winter 2026 collection during Paris Men's Fashion Week, introducing darker themes and a short film starring actor Vincent Cassel, shifting away from the brand's traditionally colourful aesthetic. This new partnership with Mercedes-Benz returns to the sports references that Dillane frequently explores. The German automotive manufacturer, currently marking its 140th anniversary, maintains a presence in fashion and cultural partnerships, having previously collaborated with rapper Ice Spice to design a custom chrome-wrapped CLA model.

First previewed during the KidSuper Spring/Summer 2027 runway show in Miami, the capsule celebrates seven World Cup-winning nations. The collaboration draws structural inspiration from the stars stitched above national team crests, which signify individual World Cup victories. According to the brand, Colm Dillane views this symbol as a connection between generations of football fans. The design process paired each country's sporting achievements with a specific Mercedes-Benz model from a corresponding era, translating automotive elements into apparel.

The KidSuper and Mercedes-Benz capsule details

The 17-piece lineup spans football jerseys, tracksuits, tailoring, knitwear and accessories. Each item incorporates national colours, historic dates and vehicle references. Brazil's football legacy translates into a tailored jacket inspired by the Mercedes-Benz 220 SE, while Uruguay's history informs a navy crochet polo referencing the SSK. For Germany, the 300 SL Coupé appears on a black zip-up jacket. Argentina's past victories are represented through a printed shirt and a leather-trimmed bag, both referencing the 450 SEL 6.9.

The collection also highlights France with a blue workwear set referencing the G 500. Spain is represented by a bright football jersey inspired by the SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive Concept, while England's sporting heritage is translated into a burgundy tracksuit referencing the Mercedes-Benz 600. Throughout the range, KidSuper reworks the signature Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star logo, integrating it alongside traditional football iconography and vintage sportswear details.
