Crenshaw Skate Club and Sprite debut a streetwear capsule blending skate and basketball cultures.
Apparel includes tracksuits and graphic tees inspired by South Central LA barbershops.
Releases November 7 in LA and November 9 online, priced 50–120.
Crenshaw Skate Club is teaming up with Sprite on a collaborative capsule. Rooted in a shared appreciation for authenticity and cultural impact, the partnership merges Crenshaw Skate Club’s distinct skate aesthetic with Sprite’s historic ties to basketball and street culture. The lineup takes cues from Sprite’s deep ties to basketball and street culture, spanning graphic T-shirts, sweatpants, a six-panel cap and an updated tracksuit, with an athletic mesh track jacket paired with oversized, baggy mesh shorts. Sprite’s trademark green-and-yellow palette runs throughout, merging the visual identities of both brands.
Much of the collection draws on founder Tobey McIntosh’s own upbringing in South Central. One of the standout tees features an illustrated portrait with the Sprite logo cut into the subject’s hair. The idea comes from the haircut menus McIntosh remembers seeing on barbershop walls when he went along with his father. Those charts offered patrons a range of designs to have shaved in, including well-known sports and pop culture logos. By turning that neighborhood fixture into a graphic, the design honors the small, everyday details that still shape Crenshaw Skate Club’s point of view.
The collection will debut at a special Los Angeles pop-up located at 439 N Fairfax Avenue, the original site of the Supreme store that became the first retailer to carry Crenshaw Skate Club’s T-shirts in 2018. Returning to this exact location eight years later serves as a profound full-circle moment for the brand, honoring the spaces and community that fostered its early growth.
The Crenshaw Skate Club x Sprite collection will be available exclusively at this Los Angeles pop-up on November 7, 2026, followed by a global online release on November 9, 2026, at 11 AM PST on the brand’s website, with pieces ranging in price from $50 – $120 USD.
