FILA recreated its iconic sailing jacket for its SS20 collection The item worn by Giovanni Soldini during the 1999 Around Alone is the key feature of the new collection

The sea has always been a fundamental element of FILA's DNA, which has often dressed world-renowned athletes during their most extreme moments. A perfect example of this relationship between FILA and sailing is the feat accomplished in 1999 by Giovanni Soldini, the FILA athlete who, wearing the iconic sailing jaket, became the winner of the Around Alone in 1999, breaking the world record for solo Atlantic crossing and who obtained the Legion d'Honneur for facing the storm and saving the French athlete Isabelle Autissier after the overturning of her boat. This item, a symbol of courage and sporting skill, is now back as the protagonist of the SS20 collection, presented last September during Milan Fashion Week.

The FILA sailing jacket is available, in the two yellow and white colorways, online and at the brand's stores, along with the rest of the SS20 collection.
