Thanks to Cult Kit for the Details
This summer, Hong Kong’s premier purveyor of Italian caffe culture Coffeelin is joining forces with Cult Kits, the UK based sellers of rare and collectible football shirts, to launch an exclusive 5-day pop-up event to coincide with this summer’s UEFA European Football Championship. The pop-up event – opening on 19 June, 2024 – will delight fans of football, fashion and coffee alike with hundreds of vintage and retro football kits and exclusive merchandise available to purchase at Coffeelin’s flagship branch in Fortress Hill.
Founded in the UK by three friends with a passion for football fan culture and jerseys from across the globe, Cult Kits is a champion of all forms of culture that exists in and around the beautiful game. A love that has enabled the Swindon based online retailer to amass a social media following in the hundreds of thousands.
Speaking about the upcoming event in Hong Kong, Cult Kits co-founder David Furzer-Jones says, “This is a very special opportunity for Cult Kits and something we’ve been trying to visualise for almost a year now.” He continues, “It’s a chance for the football shirt loving community of Hong Kong and in fact the world, to see what we as an emerging company in the online vintage retail space are all about. With Coffeelin as partners for this, we’re really going to be able to flex our creative brains and give Asian football fans an experience not yet seen in a pop-up.”
Alongside a wide selection of classic and vintage football shirts, visitors will also be able to purchase exclusive merchandise, apparel and of course, sample Coffeelin’s Italian-style espresso and cocktails – all whilst shopping in a vintage football themed dedicated paradise.
Coffeelin founder Lucas Sam added: “We are delighted to collaborate with one of the world’s biggest sellers of vintage and classic jerseys. Cult Kits aligns perfectly with our brand – and shares our passion for the finer details and heritage of the product. As one of the most authentic Italian caffe bars in Hong Kong, Coffeelin would like to offer different experiences to our local customers. With all the sporting events happening this summer, we wish to celebrate the excitement together with football fans here in Hong Kong.”
Lucas continues, “Extending genuine Italian hospitality, we believe our flagship Coffeelin Fortress Hill’s convivial atmosphere is the perfect setting for such a unique collaboration with Cult Kits. To have Rob and David here in Hong Kong sharing their knowledge in classic jerseys and passion for football, together with our Italian cocktails and coffee, it’s going to make for the perfect event.”
Cult Kit’s football shirt pop-up at Coffeelin Fortress Hill will take place from 19 to 23 June, 2024.
