2+1 Recommended by LOFT: Soccer Special
Daniel PintoIn LOFT's 2+1, we're showcasing IG accounts that you're sure to enjoy for their watch-related content. We're also highlighting an additional account not related to watchmaking, but one of our team's favorites. This week, we have a soccer special featuring some of the players with the most entertaining, unusual, and certainly luxurious watch collections.
1. Erling Braut Haaland
The young star of world football is a self-confessed watch fanatic, and he's not afraid to show it on his feed. In addition to his impressive collection of Rolex, AP, and Patek, he's also done collaborations bearing his name, such as the Micromilspec "Golden Boy," and was even recently chosen as one of Breitling's ambassadors. Not bad for a 22-year-old.

2. Hakim Ziyech
Morocco unleashed a true African craze during the World Cup in Qatar. And we're glad it happened, otherwise we would never have heard of Hakim Ziyech and his passion for Patek Philippe. Not only does he sport three ultra-desirable Nautilus pieces like the Chrono, the Travel Time, and the Full Pave (which is truly impressive), but we also see him on social media sporting a truly niche piece: the "Pearl Project" Nautilus crafted by the geniuses at Artisans de Genève. True proof that we're dealing with a connoisseur of the subject. You can discover this and much more on his account.

3. Paul Pogba
At LOFT, we also consider ourselves hopeless sneakerheads , so we wanted to feature a footballer who always surprises with his footwear collection. In his photos, you can always find Paul Pogba with his feet dressed to the nines. Whether it's Diors, Off-Whites, or the ever-present Jordans, the Frenchman is a master of good taste and urban style. And keep an eye on his "workwear," too, as his wildly designed soccer cleats in collaboration with Adidas are also causing a stir online.
