TEAMWORK: Levi’s on Thursday unveiled its inaugural collaboration with Formula One heavyweight McLaren Racing with a capsule collection that champions heritage and innovation.

The lineup — to hit stores worldwide on Wednesday coinciding with the British Grand Prix at Silverstone Circuit — includes a racing jacket, racing suit, racing gloves, trucker, jeans, constructors T-shirt and a racing bandana.

The brand said the racing jacket is inspired by the spirit of McLaren Racing’s vintage era, and features a chain stitch embroidery logo on the back and twill taping at the cuff and hem.

The racing suit has a slight drop crotch and a roomy fit with a straight leg. It comes with vintage-inspired patches, a crackle print down the right leg and a veg tan leather zipper that pulls down at the front center.

McLaren has been active in the space of fashion with several collaborations in recent years. In 2024 alone, it revealed a multiyear partnership with the British high-street fashion brand Reiss, and a capsule drop including T-shirts, hoodies and jackets with Abercrombie & Fitch.

Last year, for McLaren’s 60th anniversary, it teamed with Jack Daniel’s and Bowers & Wilkins for a series of collaborations.
