Ferrari F1 Driver Leclerc Launches Personal Fashion Line CL16
Ferrari F1 team driver Charles Leclerc has launched a new limited-edition merchandise line CL16—the name derived from his initials and his beloved racing number 16.
Leclerc announced the new collection via his personal Instagram account, captioning: “My first merchandise line is finally here. Hope you love it as much as I enjoyed creating it.”
The launch of this limited collection marks Leclerc’s new role as creative director, and his first time fully leading the design of a personal line. CL16 includes several items, such as T-shirts starting at £53, hoodies from £99, and a wool scarf priced at £135.
The campaign was shot by his longtime collaborator, photographer Antoine Truchet, at a laundromat, featuring Leclerc, his fiancée Alexandra Saint Mleux, and his dog Leo. Notably, Leo models a red knitted dog sweater, priced at £41.
The CL16 brand states that the new collection focuses on “timeless classics,” reflecting Leclerc’s personal taste and creative vision, inspired by his European upbringing and 1990s style. From design sketches and fabric selection to the art direction of campaign images and videos, Leclerc was deeply involved in every aspect of the collection’s launch.
