Festival fashion 2026: System of a Down, Doof, Terminal V and more

Alongside standard tees and hoodies, the collection includes city-specific designs from the tour's European stops and a sportswear collaboration with Hummel.

System of a Down have launched a new range of official tour merchandise, available to buy online following the band’s sold-out shows across Europe.

The collection includes city-specific designs from the European tour, alongside a sportswear collaboration with Hummel, spanning tees, hoodies, track jackets, jerseys, shorts, posters and accessories. The Hummel partnership centres on a set of football-style shirts, a first for the band’s merch line.

The range grew out of a run of pop-up stores the band opened in five cities along the tour, Stockholm, Paris, Berlin, Dรผsseldorf and London, each running for up to six days between late June and mid-July. The London shop took over a space on Eastcastle Street in the West End, close to Oxford Street, from 10 to 16 July. Every city’s store carried its own exclusive, colour-pressed vinyl edition of Toxicity, alongside the shared apparel range now available online.

The stores were pitched as a thank you to fans after stadium dates in Stockholm, Paris, Milan, Berlin, Dรผsseldorf, London and Warsaw sold out twice over. The run, which began in Stockholm on 29 June and closed in Warsaw on 18 July, marked System of a Down’s first European tour since 2017 and their first London shows since 2015, with two nights at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 13 and 15 July. Queens of the Stone Age and Acid Bath, the latter reunited in 2025 after a 17-year hiatus, supported across every date.

The release coincides with the 25th anniversary of the band’s seminal album, Toxicity, which has sold more than 42 million records worldwide since it defined the Los Angeles quartet’s early sound in 2001. The full range is available now via the band’s official store, and via Rock Sound’s System of a Down collection.

System of a Down aren’t the only ones stocking up festival wardrobes this summer, though.
