Patrick

Patrick is a French sportswear brand with roots going back to the 1970s, when it built a quiet presence in European football. It never reached the scale of the industry's major players, but maintained a consistent foothold among mid-sized and lower-tier clubs, particularly in France and the United Kingdom. In this archive, Patrick is represented by a single shirt from Le Touquet AC, a club from northern France. A small collection so far, but one that illustrates how independent brands dressed grassroots football with the same visual care as the top flight — hoops and stripes included.
