This latest Fila Terrinda Emerald Green track top reminds us why we fell in love with OG Fila styles from the 1980s to start with.
There aren't many track tops out there than can claim the same cult status that the Terrinda has. Something like the equivalent of the
Beckenbaur to adidas, the Fila Terrinda is a testament to casual fashion of the early 80s. With its premium price tags, luxury fabrics and the elitist appeal that every top boy from Dundee to Dagenham wanted a piece of, the Terrinda still holds its own as one of the greatest track tops of all time. Born out of the original Pier Luigi Rolando designs and the prestigious White Line of the 1970s & 1980s, the Terrinda took a traditional tennis track top and made it super cool, super stylish & super sought after. Now arriving in an updated Emerald Green colourway, the Fila Terrinda reminds us of why we fell in love with OG Fila styles to start with. When it comes to classic sportswear from the 1980s, it doesn't really get much better than the Terrinda track top.

As far as the Terrinda was concerned it wasn't just about designing sportswear, it was about revolutionising tennis apparel with Italian styling & luxury fabrics. Originally released in 1982 at the pinnacle of casual sportswear the Fila Terrinda Mk3 took 80s Italian styling to the max with a luxurious velour fabric and biker jacket style inspiration. With its hefty price tag the Terrinda became one of the most sought after Fila styles of the era among the casual elite. Worn by tennis icons like the Swedish tennis legend, Bj_rn Borg, the playboy appeal of the Terrinda was literally like nothing else the tennis world had ever seen. Ask any young Casual from the early 80s which sportswear style they wanted the most. The Terrinda will always be the one that's gets mentioned the most.
