Iron Cafe - Footy Popup

The Iron Cafe —a thoughtfully designed coffee and food experience on 37th Street and Iron in the Bridgeport neighborhood—draws inspiration from its owner's time living in Copenhagen, Denmark. Recently @___crossbar___ @sidewalk_fc , and @staytruesupply combined forces to host a Pop Up with some of the collection remaining up front for a more semi-permanent location.

I attended the recent Crossbar Collective Winter Pop-Up Bazaar in Chicago, and once again, it was a beautifully curated space that reflected the group's passion for football. So many things caught my eye—here are a few of my favorites!

Soccer in the Community - Solidarity Triangle

This fall, I attended the Soccer in the Community event in Avondale, Chicago, hosted by Crossbar and Sidewalk FC. The gathering featured vintage kits, live music, food, and even a lively kickabout.
