At first glance, the Serena Williams Design Crew Jacket looks like it marched straight out of the '90s. Look a little closer, however, and the intricate beauty of Kente cloth comes to life. Handpicked by Serena Williams and brought to life by the Serena Design Crew, this incredible print honours her incredible legacy with a traditional zig-zag pattern that's been altered with a repeating letter "S" for Serena. At the request of Serena Williams, the Serena Design Crew integrated the beauty of Kente cloth into this collection. Originating in West Africa, Kente cloth is a vibrant handwoven textile that's steeped in the cultural traditions of the Ashanti people, among others. Each piece brings together texture and colour with symbolic meaning, creating a cohesive collection that honours Serena's legacy—on and off the court. Crisp woven fabric has a water-repellent finish that helps keep you dry in wet weather. The mesh lining helps keep the jacket from clinging to your skin when you move.
