In store: Fila Vintage Match Polo



Invented by René Lacoste in 1927, inadvertently becoming known as a Polo Shirt due to the success of Ralph Lauren's version, the Pique Cotton Polo shirt goes on and on. Every brand has their take on this design and Fila are no exception. Introduce an element of Fila Vintage's Matchday line to the humble polo shirt and you get something a bit special - the Fila Vintage Match Polo shirt is 100% Pique cotton, slim fit and yarn-dyed collars and cuffs that last.


Available at StuartsLondon.com in Chinese Red, Kelly Green and White.


Fila Vintage and Fila Gold are available at StuartsLondon.com

This jacket has the 80's Casuals motif, clearly an homage to the original 'BJ' Bjorn Borg'-badged terrindas and Matchday Jacket of the 80s.









These are extremely limited, so be quick…

In store: Fila Vintage Spin Jacket




Due to the huge success of the red Spin Jacket the Peacoat Navy and Gardenia (white) have been added to the collection. Stock is limited. Slim fit style, based on an archive replica the Spin Jacket has become one of the most popular styles this season.


"it's bit of an underdog" says Ravi at Stuartslondon.com "We were not expecting the demand on this style to be as much as it has become, and we bought way under expecting it to be a normal sell-through style. Thankfully we have managed to secure some more stock, and the navy, since we added them to our store and website, have began to sell faster than the red"



The Spin Jacket is made from poly triacetate, giving the jacket the old school retro feel and look.

New arrival: Fila Settanta Matchday Mark 3 "Terrinda" Jacket


The Fila Terrinda Jacket is here and we are the first Stockist in the UK to get it in. With the new film 'The Firm' due to be released in two days on the 18th Sept, you can watch it in style by wearing the exclusive limited edition Navy Terrinda jacket. Stock is very limited and only 500 jackets and bottoms have been made for world wide distribution, so if you don't want to miss out - be quick!




Gift Boxed - Why all this fuss about a jacket from the 80s?


1973 Fila launched its first collection designed by Pierluigi Rolando. In an age of Tennis Whites, Fila White Line was the beginning of an era that saw them redefine sportswear with an injection of colour and style. These iconic designs caught the eyes of the mass on court and more importantly off the court. Fila weren’t just any normal sports brand. Adopted by the Italian playboys and country club crowds, Fila became the sports brand that everyone aspired to wear.


Settanta Matchday Mark 3


After the previous Fila Matchday jackets in 1982 the mark 3 was launched. Dubbed as the Terrinda jacket by the collectors and lovers of this giant brand, it was the first collection aimed at tennis players and fashion conscious spectators. The Terrinda name comes from the fabric, and off the courts and on the terraces, the Fila terrinda jacket was a must-have piece.


However it wasn’'t cheap in price because of the quality and the time spent on research and development. Originals today from the 80s depending on the quality can fetch up to £1200 on websites like eBay.


The jacket's characteristics are very simple with slight padded shoulders and white piping contrast representing the court markings. The biker style collars complete the timeless look. To put it simply, the Terrinda was way ahead of its time.
