Watch | Hackett try out their new suits on a race circuit

By Nick Byam

Hackett, in association with Williams Racing, releases the sequel to ‘The Coolest Pitstop Ever’ starring pro skateboarder Liam Morgan.

Celebrating their second anniversary, Hackett and William Racings are back at 70mph with the follow up to last season’s video. This time, they ask: “Ever wondered what it would be like to skateboard around a race circuit in a suit at 70mph…?”

Longboard downhill supremo Liam Morgan skates effortlessly in the fantastic Hackett Williams Racing suit at the famous Paul Ricard race circuit, whilst William Onyeabor’s ‘Fantastic Man’ plays in the background.

Since their first Formula One™ season in 1978, Williams Racing has had an outstanding record of 114 Grand Pix victories. Paying homage to the success of Williams Racing, Hackett has produced 114 limited edition Hackett Williams Racing suits as seen worn by Liam Morgan in the video. A special lining of technical drawing and a bespoke label in each suit proudly announces the country and year of a particular Williams Grand Prix win, making each suit truly unique.

The limited edition Hackett Williams Racing suit is available to purchase both in stores and online from 6th April 2016, retailing for £700.

Water resistant, lightweight wool and a natural stretch in the fabric, Hackett is offering its best suit to date, crafted with meticulous detail. Whether you are sat at a desk or skating around a race circuit at 70mph in a skateboard, do it in one of these special suits, made of exclusive fabrics which Hackett is bringing to the table in the special collaboration between the brands.
