James Rodríguez’s new business
Recently, Pedro Castellanos, founder of the Colombian clothing brand Monastery Couture, announced that a new collection will go on sale on November 18, with the collaboration and seal of the former Real Madrid player. Monastery was born in 2019 and today competes in the haute couture market alongside other prestigious companies such as Calvin Klein and Gucci.
The collection will be in all Monastery stores while supplies last and the money raised will be invested in some foundations, among which Colombia Somos Todos stands out, created in 2011 by the 32-year-old soccer player.
Colombia Somos Todos is dedicated to helping boys and girls develop skills in education and sports. In the words of James Rodríguez, they seek to sow discipline, camaraderie and perseverance, values that have taken them to the top of world football. “We are happy because in 12 years we have impacted the lives of more than 6,000 boys and girls, as well as those of their families in 20 municipalities of Antioquia, Tolima, Atlántico and Casanare,” said James in an interview with Forbes magazine.
