    SummaryPalace and Nike have unveiled "The Three Lions by Palace," a capsule collection for the England men's team launching June 12, with a wider release at select retailers including Nike.com on June 16The collection spans pre-match training pieces and off-pitch lifestyle staples, highlighted by a leather and wool varsity jacket with chenille patches, silver anthem zip-up jackets, and St. George's Cross-inspired performance jerseysFootball Beyond Borders, an education and social inclusion organization using football to change young people's lives, will have its emblem on special edition pre-match kits worn by the England men's squad during tournament matches on June 6 and 10Palace Skateboards and Nike have officially unveiled "The Three Lions by Palace," a capsule collection for the England men's national football team releasing June 12. Part of the Nike x2 series bringing together federations, collaborators, and Social and Community Impact partners, the collection lands as the England squad prepares for tournament football, with Football Beyond Borders honored directly on the pre-match kit worn by players on June 6 and 10.The garments cover two distinct registers. On the performance side, a slim-fitting Dri-FIT Academy Pro Soccer Top and Dri-FIT Soccer Jersey carry St. George's Cross-inspired prints with co-branding on the chest, while a Dri-FIT Strike Drill Top arrives in tonal grey with infrared accents and co-branded patches. A Track Jacket and Track Pants in lightweight smooth woven material round out the training pieces. The lifestyle end of the collection is where Palace's design instincts are most visible: a leather and wool varsity jacket with Palace typography and an enlarged three lions rendered in chenille on the back, silver anthem zip-up jackets, and a black leather Cryoshot. T-shirts, an unstructured cap, and an uncuffed beanie complete the lineup.The Football Beyond Borders inclusion gives the collection its most meaningful layer. FBB is a long-term partner of both Nike and the FA, working daily to use football as a vehicle for education and social inclusion for young people. Having their emblem appear on the actual England pre-match kit during tournament matches on June 6 and 10 takes the partnership well beyond a logo placement and into something with real visibility at the sport's highest level.The campaign film anchoring the collection is characteristically Palace in its ambition and irreverence. Wayne Rooney and Jill Scott appear alongside a cast of England fans, with Rooney delivering a recital of Shakespeare as scenes move from present-day football culture back through history to Neolithic times. The film's payoff reveals Stonehenge to have been a primitive goal all along. Fast, gritty, and genuinely funny, it functions as both a love letter to England fandom and a precise articulation of why Palace was the right call for this collection."It's always been a dream of ours to work officially with England," said Lev Tanju, Co-founder and Creative Director of Palace. "Growing up in London it's always a massive moment when tournament football starts and everyone comes together, rooting for the same team. We've made a few different things in the past as an ode to the England team, so now to officially partner is a dream come true." Gareth Skewis, Co-founder and CEO, added, "To me England's identity is so intertwined with the England national football team, the two are pretty much hand in glove. What could be better than designing for England with Nike. It's quintessential childhood dream stuff.""The Three Lions by Palace" drops June 12 online and in-store in the UK, EU, US, and Canada, followed by a release online and in-store in Japan, online in Australia and New Zealand, and in-store in Hong Kong and Korea on June 13. The collection then releases via Nike on June 16.
