Team Argentina seems well on track to defend their Copa America title, this time in the US. The reigning champions have already punched their tickets to the finals and their striking sleek new outfits may have caught your attention over the course of the tournament.
This year, the national team has partnered with Palm Angels, an Italian luxury fashion label. Known for its edgy, sleek and contemporary designs, Palm Angels has become the Official Life & Style Curator for Team Argentina.
The brand's Instagram handle recently posted a series of snaps and videos with La Albiceleste rizz. Almost every clip captured of Lionel Messi's side oozes the ‘OG’ vibes and Palm Angels featured just that across their social media handles.
The players were seen donning Palm Angels' unique and stylish outfits, both on and off the field–including one entire group photoshoot where they posed in matching navy-blue suits that made the statement clear–We are royalty, we are the Kings.
Palm Angels was originally a photography project
Founded by Francesco Ragazzi, Palm Angels started as a photography project and quickly evolved into a full-fledged fashion brand. It’s renowned for its blend of Californian skate culture and Italian sartorial craftsmanship.
The brand’s distinctive aesthetic includes bold graphics, relaxed fits, and a mix of luxury streetwear elements.
For Copa America 2024, Palm Angels has designed exclusive apparel for Team Argentina that includes training gear, travel outfits, and formal wear for official events.

“Palm Angels stems from an italian take on american culture and subcultures. It merges an appreciation for sartorial codes and a joy for fabric with a proclivity for using clothing as identity tropes and cultural signifiers. Palm angels is essentially a vision, with a real human being behind it,” per the brand’s official website.
