Pedri from Barça in Project X Paris!

Project X Paris is recognized as the number 1 streetwear brand, and we see that through the stars’ outfits, who don’t hesitate to show off in PXP. So naturally, we’re very happy when we see footballers like Pedri wearing their best Project X outfit. It’s time to focus on the young Spanish phenomenon.

Pedri, Iniesta’s Successor? Yes, Barça struggled a lot to recover after its golden era of the late 2000s / early 2010s. The fault lies with the extremely high bar set by the group formed at the time by Pep Guardiola, led by Xavi, Puyol, Iniesta, and a young Messi who would become the best player in the world. But also due to some unfortunate sporting decisions, like letting Messi, Suarez, and Neymar leave in a short time. But in 2023, the Catalan club can smile again, crowned champion of Spain after almost 4 years without major titles. A return to the forefront they owe at least partly to the talent of Barça’s new generation of players, including Pedri.

And with over 40 matches under his belt, we can even say Pedri is one of the leaders. Firmly established in midfield, he has finally regained the level he had during his completely inhuman 2020 season. That year, he played more than 70 matches in all competitions (he even played the Olympics with Spain), a superhuman feat that ended with a serious right thigh injury. But now, Pedro Gonzalez Lopez (his real name) is back at the top, and it shows in his team’s results and play. The player is one of the team’s metronomes, capable of cleanly distributing any ball, with great vision and surprising agility, even for his size. In essence, he can be called Iniesta’s designated successor, even if the path is still long before reaching the same level as the Barça legend.

And if we needed another reason to love the player, he’s also a man of taste, with an interest in streetwear. Especially for your favorite brand, Project X Paris, which he wears from time to time when sponsorship contracts allow him to dress as he wishes. Like after Barça’s fabulous 4-0 victory against Betis Sevilla on April 29. A great evening after which Pedri strolled through the Camp Nou stands wearing Project X Paris cargo pants, the Cargo Jean with pockets and tightening strap at the bottom. In black, paired with a black hoodie as well, for a sober yet super stylish outfit. Contrary to what one might think, the cargo jean at PXP can also have a versatile side, especially in this color!

Project X Paris and Football: A Crazy LoveAt PXP, we’re obviously very happy to be popular with a footballer of Pedri’s caliber. Because we’re also football fans, and the brand took advantage of the 2022/2023 season to make a big impact in the football world. Thanks notably to several promo spots aired during the 2022 World Cup, a campaign that introduced the brand to millions during high-stakes matches like the France/England semi-final. A real pride for us, and also for you who are increasingly supporting us.

But our involvement in football goes beyond commercials. We were also major players in the Planète Rap 2 match: Rappers VS Streamers held in early June. A gala match at the Auguste Delaune stadium in Bobigny, organized for the benefit of the Abbé Pierre Foundation to help in the fight against poor housing. A beautiful moment of entertainment but also communion and mutual aid, values carried by football that we are happy to promote through these initiatives. We hope to do it again at the first edition.

Finally, we also want to thank the many footballers we collaborated with or who chose to wear Project X Paris on their own, like Neymar, Presnel Kimpembe, Malcom, David Luiz, Nabil Fekir, Corentin Tolisso, Riyad Mahrez, and many others. We will continue to inspire all these idols to wear PXP by always offering you better!
