Gibson has launched a range of retro-inspired football shirts right in time for the World Cup
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup well underway, football fans the globe over have been clamouring to support their countries as they vie to lift that coveted golden trophy on 19 July.
We’re now into the knockout stages, and some strong contenders – including Japan, the Netherlands and, shockingly, Germany – have already been eliminated.
Of course, the desire to buy and rep your team’s shirt when they’ve already been knocked out is pretty minuscule, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still look the part…
Thanks to this new collaboration between guitar giant Gibson and Icarus Football – which specialises in custom kit design – you can express your love of both guitar culture and football all at once.

Available at Gibson.com and at the Gibson Garages in Nashville and London, the Gibson x Icarus Football collection reinterprets classic football aesthetics “through the lens of Gibson’s heritage”.

The drop consists of two limited-edition polo-style shirts, one long-sleeve in white repping “Gibson USA”, and another with short sleeves in a navy blue Gibson Stars aesthetic.
“Each piece blends the craftsmanship and attitude Gibson is known for with Icarus Football’s reputation for storytelling through shirt design,” Gibson says. “The result is apparel that feels equally at home in stadium stands, on festival grounds, or in the wardrobes of fans who move fluidly between music and sport.”
“Gibson chose to partner with Icarus Football for its distinctive position at the intersection of football and music culture,” the brand continues.

“Beyond its reputation for original, story-driven shirt design, Icarus Football has longstanding associations with numerous bands, including Gibson partners Motörhead and Broken Social Scene, making the brand a natural collaborator for a project centered on creative crossover. Together, Gibson and Icarus Football have created a collection that reflects a shared point of view – where sound, style, identity, and sport all meet.”
It doesn’t look like this drop is the first from Gibson and Icarus Football, either, as the two brands say they plan to explore future collections with design elements drawn from the Gibson Garages in Nashville, London and Miami.
The long-sleeved white shirt is priced at $120, while the short-sleeved blue shirt is $100.
