Romeo Beckham is his dad’s twin as he rocks £450 knitwear with David’s face on it
It must be pretty iconic to be raised by both a football legend and pop music icon. Paying homage to his parents, Romeo Beckham has honoured one of his dad’s most iconic style eras – the Beckham buzz cut – by rocking a knitted sweater emblazoned with his dad’s face.
On Saturday, the 21-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham took to Instagram to show off a new addition to his knitwear collection. He rocked one of HighSnobiety’s £450 KNITWRTH sweaters, the ‘Becks Knit Sweater Multi,’ which, as the name suggests, features an all-over graphic of his mum and dad.
The front of Romeo’s cloud-blue knitwear was emblazoned with a print of his dad David from 2001 when he was the face of Adidas’ |”I Kiss Football” campaign. In the shot, the sporting legend rocks sunglasses and an “I Kiss Football” sweatshirt while using a suitably retro flip phone.
The back features another throwback photo, this time a candid of David and Victoria both rocking tiny sunglasses while the (shirtless) football pro blows bubbles.
Selfridges, which sells the limited edition knit, said of the design: “A player who ascended beyond football and reached the status of cultural icon, Beckham now finds himself on the front (and back) of the latest piece from Highsnobiety.
