The Settanta Track Jacket is arguably FILA's most iconic track jacket.

Designed by Pier Luigi Rolando, it ruffled feathers and added a pop of colour to the traditionally white sporting uniforms of the late 70s & early 80s.

Most famously worn by Bjorn Borg during his tennis heyday, the design was later adopted by Hollywood celebrities, musicians & football casuals alike.

This limited edition version features the co-branded exclusive Fila F Box logo which sits proudly alongside the iconic Fatboy Slim smiley face skull & crossbones graphic.

To the reverse of the jacket we’ve included an embroidered Fatboy Slim script logo graphic in a contrast colour-way.

The words ‘ Stop Me Before I Rave Again’ have also been applied to the inside back neck tape.

Stop me before I rave again!

1988 Saw the explosion of Acid House, The Second Summer of Love

Pioneering British DJs brought Balearic beats and Ibiza’s hedonistic club culture back from the White Isle. London had Shoom and Spectrum , Manchester The Hacienda and Brighton’s very own Zap Club became places of worship for British ravers.

In the pre-Internet age, pirate radio stations and club flyers spread word of illegal parties, abandoned factories and farmers fields hosted huge gatherings for the likeminded. 24 hour party people found imaginative ways of getting around the strict 2am curfew laws & upset the authorities on the way.

Inclusivity was at the heart of the movement, the dance floors welcomed all. Race, sexual orientation and economic status mattered not, as strangers lost their inhibitions, embraced and partied the night away.

Football casuals were a big part of the early scene, trading organised violence and the tribalism of the terraces for a more unifying shared experience. Finding common ground with rival firms, something that was previously unimaginable.

Many swapped their luxury Italian sportswear for a baggier style more suited to sweaty dance floors.

It had to be a loose fit, with smiley faces abound!

The 80s became the 90s & Norman Cook pushed the boundaries and the tempo. A musical alchemist concocting mash ups, a product of his influences, hip-hop breaks, funk samples, and pumping house beats.

The press called it Big Beat, so named after his legendary residency at The Concorde. The Fatboy Slim monicker was born and a reputation well earned, the party not to be missed.

The 90s became the naughties & the movement had gathered pace.
Electronic music dominated the charts and Superstar DJs headlined major music festivals and arenas.

Norman played a free homecoming show on July 6th 2001 and it went over rather well. So well infact that on July 13th 2002, The Big Beach Boutique 2 saw 250,000 ravers descend on the city.
