2 Chainz Fronts Fear of God x MLB's "Atlanta Capsule" Ahead of All-Star Week
Fear of GodEssentialshas teamed up withMLBahead ofAll-Star WeekinAtlanta, Georgia, to celebrate the city's vibrant cultural legacy with Georgia-born rapper2 Chainzfronting the photos. The campaign not only honors the city's sports teams across the MLB, NBA, and NFL, but also its contributions to Rap music and the Civil Rights movement. According toWWD, the Atlanta Capsule taps trusted industry purveyors with caps made in collaboration with New Era, sweatshirts, and batting gloves developed with Franklin Sports. The pieces call out Atlanta's big three teams the Braves (MLB), Falcons (NFL) and Hawks (NBA), and also pay respect to the 'Negro Southern League' and the 'Negro American League,' like the Monarchs, Black Crackers, Black Yankees, Grays and X-Giants — originating during the US's era of racial segregation. The graphics represent a loud and clear political statement, reprising chants and signage from the 1960s Black Liberation movement in Atlanta. In addition to empowering phrases like 'We Won't Move' and 'Freedom Now,' one graphic reads 'Don't buy where you can't work,' echoing the numerous consumer boycotts of the era. The statement is especially relevant to the current climate, as boycotts continue to affect retailers who have drawn back on DEI initiatives and affirmative action. In 1996, Atlanta hosted the Summer Olympics, solidifying its status as an American sports hub. The city has also become an epicenter for African-American arts and music, serving as a hub for some of the world's most renowned rappers like 21 Savage, Andre 3000, Young Thug, Gucci Mane, Soulja Boy, and, of course, 2 Chainz, among many others. The Fear of God x MLB collection celebrates these thriving cultural movements while also honoring the historic struggle of African-American communities. The Atlanta Capsule will be available exclusively atThe Websterin Lenox Square this Friday and later on the Fear of God web store.

Fear of God Presents the Civil Collection
Summary Fear of God, under the visionary direction ofJerry Lorenzo, has always explored the profound intersection of clothing, culture, and individual expression. This philosophy reaches a new zenith with the unveiling of the 'Civil Collection,' an offering distinguished by its refined forms and sophisticated ease, accompanied by CIVIL: a visual poem directed by filmmaker Mike Carson. This deeply resonant project delves into the era when the weight of dressing transcended mere aesthetics, birthing impeccable style founded on unspoken conviction. The 'Civil Collection' draws its profound inspiration from the integrity, resilience, and inherent elegance that characterized the American people during the Civil Rights Movement. It reflects a period where functional wardrobes performed dual duties—from working to protesting, sitting to marching—demanding clothing that not only served a purpose but also conveyed a powerful message. CIVIL, the film, explores this purposeful intentionality of self-presentation alongside the profound impact of conviction that needs no words. 'When I think about that time, I think about the amount of consideration that had to go into the everyday,' reflects Jerry Lorenzo. 'Your clothes had to give you a feeling of dignity; to reflect the humanity that you were fighting for. And the aesthetic that came from that was so beautiful because it came from a deep love for self, a desire for self-representation, and a true belief in equality.' This sentiment is palpable in the collection's pieces, which emerge as authentic, timeless garments crafted with meticulous consideration and imbued with a quiet confidence, ultimately designed to afford dignity to the wearer. Director Mike Carson articulated his vision for the film, explaining, 'I wanted to put that feeling in motion and speak to the way people had to carry themselves. The film is more about what goes unsaid: when you walk into a room, you don't have to say much, but your presence and how you carry yourself can say everything. There's power in your walk. There's power in your posture. There's power in the way you carry yourself. There's power in numbers.' Through 'Civil Collection' and the accompanying visual poem, Fear of God doesn't just present clothes; it delivers a powerful meditation on self-representation, the quiet strength found in unity, and the enduring beauty of purposeful dressing. It's a collection that invites reflection, reconsidering echoes of the past through a contemporary lens to celebrate an authentic and timeless elegance. Take a closer look at the collection above. The Civil Collection is available nowonline.
