David Beckham Evolves His Style For Beckham X Boss 2025 Design Debut

David Beckham has been a risk-taker with his fashion and wardrobe since his beginning moments. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, Beckham’s style off-the-field was as unpredictable as his air-bending free kicks on the field. He sported bleached hair, buzzcuts, sarongs, durags, and mohawks, constantly featured in headlines and front pages.

Bold and often polarizing, his fashion choices were some of the most influential sartorial moments for fashion. “I’ve been lucky to influence fashion without trying,” Beckham admits. “I change my style for me, not others.”

That distinct Beckham aesthetic can now be found on the racks at BOSS stores globally. Spring/Summer 2025 BOSS introduces BECKHAM x BOSS, the first-ever BOSS collection co-designed with David Beckham. Beckham’s style is cemented with his attention to detail seeping through the seams, with a timeless approach to his debut BOSS menswear collection. BECKHAM x BOSS is following up with the release the Fall/Winter 2025 collection later this year as well.

In the past 30 years, Beckham has gone from Manchester United’s star child with a palette for sarong skirting and cornrows back in 2003, to a global style icon embracing refined, timeless tailoring. At 50 years old, his collaboration with BOSS reflects a matured aesthetic blending classic sophistication with a rebellious spirit.

“Our first BECKHAM x BOSS collection marks a significant milestone in our long-term strategic partnership and represents a unique moment in the history of our core brand. We have been very much looking forward to this launch and are more than excited to see how these pieces are received by our end consumers. This collection is based on our strategic priority, that product is key, and our goal [is] to seamlessly dress our customers for every occasion with our brands,” says Daniel Grieder, CEO of HUGO BOSS.

Casual denim and staple outerwear, a leather holdall, Chelsea boots, and a baker boy cap shape up to a thoughtfully refined collaboration. “The big inspiration was winter, the countryside, the colors, and materials I really love,” describes Beckham. “We’ve included a few different things… The camel coat, the double-breasted cashmere jacket [one of my favorites] and [Chelsea] boots. We brought back a popular pair from last season, along with the sneakers people loved.

Beckham continues, “One thing I was excited about was the corduroy suit. People who wear corduroy always look effortlessly cool. It works for breakfast meetings or evening events. The double-breasted cashmere jacket is another favorite; you can layer it. The knits, boots with cargo pants… Honestly, it’s hard to pick. I’m just happy people love so many pieces.”

This BOSS collaborative collection emphasizes Beckham’s taste for earthy tones like camel, chocolate brown, navy, and premium fabrics like cashmere and wool. The double-breasted jacket and corduroy suit allude to traditional menswear while maintaining modern ease with denim trousers and bomber jackets in suede. “My taste has become more classic over 20–30 years, but I still push boundaries,” he explains. “It’s classic, with a twist.”

Beckham’s children, and their youth, present an abundance of inspiration reincarnated. His son Cruz’s style is fresh enough to take queues from in designing some of the items of the BECKHAM x BOSS collection. “The oversized trousers were inspired by Cruz. He loves pairing them with smart jackets,” he shares. “I let my kids inspire boldness while keeping it timeless.”

This intergenerational influence keeps his designs at the cusp of trend embracing modernity. The collection avoids rigid standards by mixing tailored silhouettes with combat trousers and chunky sneakers. “I want pieces to last beyond one season,” he says. “If I find perfect trousers or sneakers, I’ll wear them forever.”

“The next 50 years will be about fun, great collaborations, and innovation,” he concludes. His past transformations have evolved gracefully over time, where even Beckham can look back and find inspiration while creating a sartorial appropriate path that is unmistakably David Beckham.
