How Pelé’s 1966 World Cup jacket became Bad Bunny’s Brazil tour look | OneFootball

In under 24 hours, a jacket worn by Pelé at the 1966 World Cup left a collector’s shop in Pinheiros, São Paulo, to outfit Bad Bunny at the second of his Allianz Parque shows last week, his first in Brazil.

Globo.com reports that he also tweaked MONACO, singing about scoring after Pelé and Maradona rather than Messi and Maradona, with the plan led by his team and collector Cássio Brandão.

Brandão, who owns Alambrado Futebol e Cultura and holds 115 Pelé items, said they spent about two hours on Saturday co-curating around 10 pieces, and he asked them to avoid autographed shirts in case of rain.

They reduced it to three, a Pelé jacket from 1958, the 1966 jacket Benito chose, and a Brazil 1978 shirt, the only World Cup when Brazil wore adidas, the singer’s sponsor.

Bad Bunny’s stylist Marvin Linares turned to Brandão after an initial visit on Friday found the Pinheiros store closed, another collector put them in touch.

He did not charge for the loan and later received a VIP invite for Saturday, welcoming the chance to celebrate Pelé and the value of preserving history.

After the show he retrieved the items from the hotel, praising the care taken, the piece returned sweaty but immaculate, and the agreement had been sealed via WhatsApp due to time pressure.

Before leaving São Paulo, Linares bought three items, a Brazil 1978 training shirt, an El Salvador shirt and a Brazil coaching staff top from 1978 or 1979.
