MEYBA releases its second officially licensed Beatles collaboration, this time drawing inspiration from the iconic Sgt, Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album.
Liverpool, a city steeped in rich football heritage and the birthplace of one of the world’s greatest bands, The Beatles, is the backdrop for a unique collaboration blending music, fashion, and sport. MEYBA, the iconic Barcelona-based sportswear brand, has once again partnered with The Beatles to celebrate their legendary Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album through an exclusive collection of football-inspired shirts.
Following the success of their sell-out Abbey Road collection, MEYBA has unveiled their second collaboration with The Beatles, combining the band’s global appeal with the brand’s legacy in sportswear design. This limited-edition collection reimagines the vibrancy and creativity of Sgt. Pepper’s in wearable, collectible jerseys.
The centrepiece of the collection is the Sgt. Pepper’s 4-Shirt Presentation Pack, priced at £300. Limited to just 250 packs worldwide, this set features four meticulously crafted jerseys, each representing a member of the Fab Four. Drawing inspiration from the iconic costumes worn on the album cover, the shirts feature:
- A bespoke MEYBA x The Beatles pattern print.
- Assorted patches and badges, echoing the psychedelic era.
- The names of John, Paul, George, and Ringo, paired with the symbolic number “64,” a nod to the classic Beatles track “When I’m Sixty-Four.”
- Unique neck shapes for each jersey.
The exclusive pack is housed in a custom MEYBA x The Beatles drawstring bag, underscoring its collector’s item status.
For fans seeking a single iconic piece, the Sgt. Pepper’s Camo Football Shirt is available for £65. Its design takes cues from the vibrant artwork of the original album’s psychedelic inner sleeve. Adorned with patches and badges, the jersey proudly displays the number “67” to commemorate the album’s release year.
First released on June 1, 1967, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band redefined the music landscape with its experimental sounds and iconic presentation. The album, often hailed as the soundtrack to the “Summer of Love,” featured a striking cover that became as celebrated as its tracks. With vivid colors, imaginative design, and surprises like a psychedelic inner sleeve and collectible cut-outs, Sgt. Pepper’s became a cultural touchstone.
Founded in 1981 in Barcelona, MEYBA became a household name as the official kit supplier for FC Barcelona during its golden era. Legendary players like Diego Maradona, Ronald Koeman, and Pep Guardiola donned MEYBA kits under Johan Cruyff’s management. Today, the brand continues its global reach by blending sports heritage with innovative collaborations.
Jonathan Jones, MEYBA’s Head of Global Marketing, spoke about the inspiration for the collection: “I was gifted Sgt. Pepper’s gatefold vinyl many years ago and was fascinated by its colours, design, and hidden details. We’ve channeled that same wonder into this collection, merging our passion for design with the magic of The Beatles.”
The MEYBA x The Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s collection is a celebration of two of Liverpool’s greatest exports—music and football. With only a limited number available, these pieces are poised to become cherished memorabilia for fans of The Beatles and football alike.
Act quickly—this fusion of cultural icons is destined to sell out just like its predecessor.
