J. Crew's new Olympic skiing capsule gives sportswear a '70s vibe shift
"The 26-piece collection, which includes everything from graphic sweatshirts and refined knitwear to ball caps, wool socks, and cozy leggings, is the first installment of J. Crew's three-year-long partnership with U.S. Ski & Snowboard, announced in March. Prices for the entire J.Crew U.S. Ski & Snowboard collection range from $49.50 to $498. It will be available online and in select J. Crew stores starting January 8."
"Each product collection is inspired by vintage logos and archival Olympic patches, blending touches of sportiness with laid-back, après-ski leisure. To package that aesthetic with this first launch, J. Crew has created an advertising campaign called "Alpine People," featuring members of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard team in a lighthearted spot that feels like Wes Anderson dropped onto the slopes in the '70s."
