US brand Abercrombie YPB launches first collab with TJ & Dani Watt
Marking Abercrombie’s first-ever collaboration for the YPB activewear line, the collection will roll out in three seasonal drops – Fall 2025, Spring 2026 and Summer 2026 – and will feature styles for both men and women.
For men, the first drop of the collection will contain various styles including shorts, tees, tanks and hoodies. The women’s line will feature an additional assortment inclusive of leggings, sports bras and sweatshirts. Pricing ranges from $29 – $90 and will be available on www.abercrombie.com and in stores.
Abercrombie & Fitch’s YPB activewear brand has launched its first collaboration, a multi-season partnership with Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker TJ Watt and his wife Dani Watt.
The co-designed collection will drop in Fall 2025, Spring 2026 and Summer 2026, featuring men’s and women’s performance-inspired apparel priced $29–$90, available online and in stores.
“TJ and Dani always bring their personal best, on and off the field, so they are the perfect partners as we embark on this pivotal next step for our YPB activewear line,” said Chief Marketing Officer at Abercrombie & Fitch Co., Carey Collins Krug. “They bring authenticity and athletic insight to every stage of the process, helping us create a collection that performs as well as they do, without sacrificing style.”
TJ Watt first discovered Abercrombie’s Your Personal Best line when his wife, Dani, added it to his training wardrobe. Impressed by the quality, he began wearing the items consistently throughout his entire training routine – from warmups to recovery. The authentic connection sparked a deeper partnership and conversations with Abercrombie about creating a collection together.
“Working with such a great design and marketing team at Abercrombie and being able to do this alongside my wife has been absolutely incredible,” TJ Watt said. “Whether you’re an athlete or not, we wanted to create something for everyone that was versatile enough to take you from a workout to running errands, with a polished, performance-inspired look that works seamlessly on or off the field. Dani and I are proud of what we created and excited for people to experience it.”
YPB launched in 2022 and aims to empower customers to be their personal best – from high-intensity workouts to low-key moments and everything in between. The performance products feature super soft, squat-proof and breathable bottoms, performance tops with four-way stretch, studio outer layers and trending fashion details like cutouts and straps. YPB’s styles are available in XXS-XXL with additional options for long and short lengths.

By aligning standards and rules in closely integrated areas, it will provide legal certainty, simplify trade in goods like medical devices and food products, and ease cross-border supply for businesses on both sides of the border.
Additionally, it will ensure more consistent rules for individuals who live, work or study across the EU-Swiss border. Switzerland will contribute to the development of legislation in the areas covered by the package and will have the opportunity to influence these rules as they are being designed.
“By modernising and deepening our ties across key sectors, from trade and transport to health and energy—we are strengthening legal certainty, fostering innovation and creating new opportunities for our citizens and businesses,” von der Leyen said in a release from the Commission.
The package includes updates to four already existing agreements, which already give Switzerland access to the EU internal market, regarding air transport, land transport, the free movement of persons and mutual recognition of conformity assessment.
New agreements on food safety, electricity, health and Switzerland’s participation in the EU Agency for the Space Programme were signed. A new agreement introduced a permanent and fair financial contribution by Switzerland to economic and social cohesion within the EU.
Apart from a protocol on parliamentary cooperation, the package includes also a joint declaration on the establishment of a high-level dialogue on the broad bilateral package.
