Date

Sep 21 2017 19:00 - 21:00

Description

Hear pop culture historian Neal Heard discuss football shirts as remarkable social, historical and design artefacts.

Taking the football shirt as a starting point, it’s possible to trace developments not only in graphic and textile design but in the game’s relationship to corporations and nations.

Consider that Levi’s once made a shirt for Mexico and Ralph Lauren for the New York Cosmos, that Bob Marley often wore iconic shirts and that the Corinthian Democracia - a club/ ideological movement - has been recognised in Brazil as one of the most important actions in the history of their struggle against dictatorship, and you’ll get a sense of the rich cultural and political associations these garments have.

Neal Heard is the author of The Football Shirts Book. His recent exhibition The Art of the Football Shirt - hosted with premium menswear platform Jacket Required - is due to start a global tour later this year.

FAQ

  • I have not received my ticket via email. What should I do?

    The first thing to do is check your spam/junk filters and inboxes. Your tickets were sent as an attachment and can be thought of as spam by some email services. Alternatively, you can always find your tickets in your Billetto account that you can access in the browsers or the dedicated Billetto app. For more help with this, read here.

  • I wish to cancel my ticket and receive a refund. What should I do?

    The approval of refunds is entirely at the event organiser’s discretion, and you should get in contact with the event organiser to discuss what options are available to you. To get in touch with the event organiser, simply reply to your order confirmation email or use the "Contact organiser" form on the organiser's profile. For more help with this, read here.

  • I have registered on the waiting list, what happens now?

    If more tickets become available you will be notified (by email) amongst others who have joined the list. Purchasing is on a first-come first-serve basis. For more information, read here.

  • Where do I find a link to an online event?

    Check your order confirmation page or order confirmation email. Usually, the organiser of the event provides the details in the order confirmation email or they might send you a follow-up email with a link to their online event. You might also want to read the event description on Billetto where an event organiser should describe how to join the event online. For more information on this, read here.
