Tommy Hilfiger, one of the iconic brands under Hudson Group’s portfolio, is proud to support the upcoming Fully Crewed Figure of 8 Race – a thrilling offshore sailing event organised by the Royal Malta Yacht Club. The race is set to take place on Saturday, 12th April.
This exciting collaboration marks a timely celebration, as it coincides with the launch of Tommy Hilfiger’s new Sailing Collection in Malta. Drawing from the brand’s heritage and passion for nautical aesthetics, the collection merges technical innovation with classic style. Designed for performance, each piece reflects the spirit of adventure that defines both the sport and the brand.
“This collaboration brings together two worlds that share a deep appreciation for the sea, precision, and passion,” said Mark Napier, Commodore of the Royal Malta Yacht Club. “We are proud to have a globally recognised brand like Tommy Hilfiger supporting the Fully Crewed Figure of 8 Race. Their involvement adds prestige and excitement to an event that continues to grow in popularity.”
The Figure of 8 Race challenges fully crewed teams to a demanding course circling the islands of Malta and Gozo. Known for attracting a strong fleet of local crews, the race combines strategy, endurance, and breathtaking scenery. Race participants and guests will also get an exclusive preview of Tommy Hilfiger’s latest Sailing Collection during the event.
“Drawing inspiration from the brand’s rich history in sailing, the Tommy Hilfiger Sailing Archive Gear features high-quality, functional pieces that offer both style and innovation,” added Joseph Borg, Fashion Brand Director at Hudson Group. “Using durable materials to emphasise performance while staying true to the timeless Tommy Hilfiger aesthetic, this collection represents our commitment to performance-driven style and our passion for the sea and its timeless allure.”
