COLLECTION OF THE MATCH
Bay FC vs. Ottawa\u00a0Rapid FC\u00a0\u2014 April 17, 2026<\/a>\u00a0
The\u00a0Oaklandish\u00a0collection\u00a0first\u00a0premiers\u00a0at\u00a0Bay FC\u2019s Star Wars\u2122\u00a0Match at PayPal Park, this Friday, April 17 at 7 p.m. PT in\u00a0San Jose\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sneak Peak <\/a><\/p>\n

The Origin\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bay FC and\u00a0Oaklandish\u00a0are two organizations that\u00a0represent\u00a0the vibrant pride, grit, and creativity of the Bay Area.\u00a0Both have been\u00a0committed to similar work, perfecting their craft across two industries.<\/p>\n

Bay FC has spent its first three seasons building supporters across the nine counties of the Bay Area. Oaklandish has spent over two decades producing apparel that reflects and represents Oakland\u2019s authentic character. When the two organizations sat down to collaborate, there was not much negotiating to do about values \u2014 they already shared them.<\/p>\n

What came out of that alignment is a collection of women\u2019s soccer apparel that reflects both brands clearly and, perhaps more importantly, reflects the Bay Area and its communities. <\/p>\n

Good design is one way to honor a region, but investing in it directly is another. Oaklandish donates at least 2% of annual revenue to nonprofit and community partners each year, which means that buying from this collection puts money back into the local neighborhoods, organizations, and people.<\/p>\n

How the Collection Came Together <\/p>\n

Bay FC\u2019s creative team and Oaklandish spent months pushing past directions that felt too familiar before arriving at something that felt right for both brands. The decision to work fully within Oaklandish established aesthetic \u2014 oversized fits and loud designs \u2014 was a new direction for Bay FC, and an exciting one to lean into. <\/p>\n

The final collection includes six pieces, three tees and three sweatshirts. Two styles feature back graphics that draw from some of the Bay Area\u2019s most recognizable landmarks, including Jack London Square, the Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, and Treasure Island. Two hoodie options lean into a bold logo-forward design to capture the unique energy filling PayPal Park on a Bay FC matchday. <\/p>\n

The Pieces <\/p>\n

Tees\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Varsity Tee is an oversized navy essential with a full-chest Bay FC screen print in warm red that is bold and clean. A collab lockup on the left sleeve ties it back to the partnership that made it possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Flora Tee leads with a Bay FC logo layered over an intricate Poppy flower illustration on the left chest. The back\u00a0opens up\u00a0into a full-size Poppy graphic that spreads across the whole canvas.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Jubilee Tee is produced in enzyme-washed natural cotton that feels broken-in from the first wear. The front keeps it simple with \u2018Bay Football Club\u2019 on the left chest, while the back brings together soccer imagery and Bay Area coastal culture in one considered composition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sweatshirts\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Jubilee Crewneck carries the same spirit as its tee counterpart into a heavier weight. Natural cotton-polyester blend, \u201cBay Football Club\u201d on the left chest, and a full back graphic that fuses soccer culture with the Bay Area coastline.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Camo Hoodie brings a street-ready look to the collection with an all-over earthen camo print and oversized Bay FC initials across the chest in a natural tone. The rugged, oversized fit gives it a\u00a0lived-in quality that works on and off matchday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Leopard Camo Hoodie is an all-over leopard print sweatshirt with a Bay FC wordmark arched across the chest in warm red and a logo on each side of the chest that works subtly against the pattern.\u00a0<\/p>\n

April 17 Is Where It Starts <\/p>\n
