Among the year’s standout cinematic releases, a 155-minute film took center stage, featuring Brad Pitt in a role that transcended merely his character’s journey—from obscurity to fame. While we’re having a bit of fun with the plot of F1, the moment Sonny Hayes stepped onto the paddock in a thyme green loopback sweatshirt, everything else faded into the background. Fortunately for fashion enthusiasts, the allure of Black Friday deals is not dependent on celebrity endorsement, and that beloved sweatshirt is available in several hues at discounts of up to 30%.
Loopback Cotton Sweatshirt
Fashion in film is seldom without memorable moments, and this year provided fertile ground for outstanding costume design. Oscar Isaac offered a visually stunning turn as Frankenstein, donning striking red leather gloves, while Pierce Brosnan sported a cool denim jacket in The Thursday Murday Club. However, Brad Pitt’s Sunspel sweatshirt—a design first introduced to the public decades ago by Jonathan Anderson—resonates beautifully with audiences.
Creating such standout style isn’t mere luck. During an insightful conversation with our style editor Mahalia Chang, costume designer Julian Day shared that Sunspel’s sweaters are, “effortless to wear and pleasant to look at. They embody lovely, classic, soft textiles.” Pitt echoed this sentiment, recalling moments when he would casually suggest, “Let’s wear that today,” when considering the scene’s vibe, leading to the selection of the loopback sweatshirt in both thyme green and shell pink.
Given Pitt’s current affinity for green, the thyme green choice aligns perfectly with his aesthetic. He was recently quoted, admitting, “I do like a pop of green, I can’t deny it. It feels like comfort food for shirts.”
With Black Friday here, it’s time to make choices that resonate personally. Although the exact shades seen on screen—green and pink—aren’t included in the sale, there are still 14 other stunning color options available. If you are looking to carve your unique style path rather than simply follow the footsteps of celebrities, selecting a color that speaks to you is the way to go. Explore our curated favorites, and don’t forget to check out the most enticing Black Friday clothing deals before you feast on those fashion choices.
