Gucci is preparing to celebrate the imminent All-Star Weekend with a special capsule launching first in Chicago, the city hosting this year’s event. Emblazoned with swirling rainbow-hued prints, the expansive collection ranges from menswear to genderless accessories, including a Gucci basketball.

An expansive selection of wearables accompanies a wide array of accessories and footwear, with Gucci favorites accompanied by a handful of new standouts, including the aforementioned basketball. Garments range from hooded windbreakers to camp shirts to swim trunks, abetted by more unconventional items like a standalone hood. Along with slide sandals and lace-up sneakers, Gucci has prepped plentiful bags — including bucket bags, briefcases and luggage — and other leather goods, including an iPhone case and billfold.

The pop-up is the latest in Gucci’s Pin series, with partners with Google for a custom Google Maps indicator. Furthermore, Gucci’s North America Changemakers Impact Fund will host an in-store celebration for the two Chicago recipients on February 15, where NBA and WNBA players will be in attendance

Gucci’s latest Pin outpost will only be open at the below address from February 14 to March 2. Meanwhile the psychedelic capsule launched earlier this week in London and will also available on Gucci’s website and at select stores.

Elsewhere, Gucci reissued its archival Tennis 1977 sneaker silhouette.
