Recently, a picture of the Iranian World Cup team went viral on Twitter, for obvious reasons.
I suddenly found myself interested in watching soccer.
But then I confirmed that it's not what these pro athletes are flaunting on the field I'm so interested in, but rather their fashion game off-duty that's so intriguing.
Vivienne Westwood and other designers around the globe have designed beautiful apparel for consumers for the World Cup, like tees and sweatshirts, but I'm more interested in going directly to the source.

So I stalked some football players online currently playing in the World Cup for some suave fashion tips, here are some takeaways:
German goalkeeper, Kevin Trapp. (middle)
Takeaway from his style:
The polo neck and brown leather jacket combo. Very nineties.
I would basically just add some bling, and voila!
French defender, Presnel Kimpembe.
Takeaway from his style:
Let your jacket BE the outfit.
Make your outerwear the star, the queen, the goal. (see what I did there?)
Spain defender, Sergio Ramos.
Takeaway from his style:
Suit up.
Iceland midfielder, Rúrik Gíslason.
Takeaway from his style:
Wear beanies with your long hair peeking out. It looks awesome.
