KOFFEE was the toast of Notting Hill Carnival in west London on August 28. The Grammy-winning deejay, one of the featured acts, was decked out in a Jamaica-inspired Arsenal jersey for the annual two-day event which ended on Monday.

Notting Hill Carnival returned after a two-year — 2020-2021 — postponement due to COVID-19.

Koffee complemented the jersey in a pair of green Adidas Firebird track pants with white Three Stripe branding, triple white Superstars, a yellow-ribbed beanie, gold-rimmed glasses, and matching jewellery.

The artiste and Adidas shared the images on social media on August 30.

“Notting Hill Carnival with the @adidaslondon and @arsenal family,” Koffee wrote on her Instagram page.

On its page, English Premier League club Arsenal posted: “Gratitude is a must. @originalkoffee delivering the ultimate warm-up this carnival, featuring our 22/23 pre-match shirt.”

Arsenal, or The Gunners as they are affectionately called, are no strangers to Jamaicans. Ian Wright, whose parents are from Jamaica, was a striker for the club for seven years, helping them lift the Premier League title, FA Cup, League Cup and the European Cup Winners Cup.

Last week, when the Jamaica-flavoured jersey was unveiled, Wright was one of the first to comment.

“It’s fantastic to see Adidas and Arsenal celebrating its rich and diverse fan base. Arsenal is for everyone, and creating initiatives, support, and products that resonate with the wide-ranging fan base is fantastic to see. The fans are going to love it!” he was quoted as saying.

Arsenal describes the kit as a “vibrant display of energy and style”, presented as “a bold, all-over geometric print in green, gold and black” colours of the Jamaican flag.

Adidas is currently in partnership with the Jamaica Football Federation and will sponsor major tournaments in which Jamaica’s team participates including the 2026 World Cup campaign.

First held in 1966, the Notting Hill Carnival is one of the biggest music events in the United Kingdom, attracting up to 1,000,000 people.
