ELEGANCE IN MOTION: PUMA & AC MILAN UNVEIL THE 24/25 AWAY KIT WITH EPIC ON-PITCH DEBUT AT YANKEE STADIUM

Global sports company PUMA and AC Milan have today officially unveiled today the Club’s Away kit for the 2024/25 season, merging timeless sophistication with modern design to embody the essence of Milanismo.

The new Away kit was showcased for the first-time last night at Yankee Stadium, where AC Milan played a friendly game against Manchester City. In an epic first for AC Milan, the team wore their Home kit in the first half and then surprised fans by switching to the new Away kit for the second half, marking its debut and the first time the Club has unveiled a kit in this way.

Details make all the difference in the 24/25 AC Milan Away kit. The classic white Away kit combined with a red-and-black polo collar and monochromatic crest personifies the spirit of success and casual sophistication of a team synonymous with the beautiful game. A tonal pinstripe pattern adds a historic touch, honouring AC Milan’s origins as the Milan Football and Cricket Club.

Maikel Oettle, Chief Commercial Officer of AC Milan, commented: “As we unveil our new Away kit for the 2024/25 season in such an innovative manner, showcasing it first on the pitch at Yankee Stadium, we continue to push the boundaries of how we connect with our fans and communities. This kit not only represents the elegance and innovation that define our Club, but also serves as a testament to our ongoing commitment to our fans and community.  Our partnership with PUMA allows us to honour our rich legacy while actively giving back to the community through initiatives like the ‘City and Milan for Change’ project, reinforcing the values that define our Club.”

Marco Mueller, PUMA’s Senior Director of Product Line Management Teamsport Apparel, added: “This Away kit is a testament to AC Milan’s enduring legacy and the sophistication that the Club embodies. We wanted to create a jersey that not only pays tribute the rich history of AC Milan and their origins, but also incorporates cutting-edge performance technology. We are proud to support AC Milan’s journey with a kit that combines elegance with innovation.”

The 24/25 Away kit is available in both Authentic and Replica versions. The Authentic jersey, worn by the players, is crafted with PUMA’s ULTRAWEAVE fabric, designed to reduce weight and friction, ensuring elite-level performance. The Replica jersey offers the same striking design with a more relaxed fit, perfect for both game days and everyday wear. Both versions incorporate PUMA’s dryCELL sweat-wicking technology to keep fans and players dry and comfortable. 

Reflecting PUMA’s commitment to sustainability, the Replica jerseys are made using the RE:FIBRE initiative, utilizing recycled textile waste to create new materials without compromising quality. Containing at least 95% recycled textile waste and other used polyester materials, this initiative represents a significant step towards a more circular and sustainable production process for football jerseys.

The launch of the Away kit is part of the broader “City and Milan for Change” initiative, a collaborative effort by AC Milan and Manchester City, supported by PUMA. The initiative focuses on giving back to the New York Community through various activities surrounding last night’s fixture. One highlight was a special joint community event in New Jersey on 26th July, which brought together over 60 boys and girls from the Success Academy Charter Schools Soccer Program, actively supported by Fondazione Milan since 2021, and children from the City in the Community (CITC) Soccerbloc program in Staten Island. The event featured participation from legends of both Clubs, making it a memorable occasion for all involved.

To mark the launch of the new Away kit, AC Milan and PUMA will host an exclusive “House of Milan” event on the 28th July in Manhattan. The event will bring together stakeholders and VIP guests to celebrate the new kit in a fashion-forward manner.

The AC Milan Away kit is available from PUMA stores, PUMA.com, the AC Milan Official Stores, store.milan.com, and select retailers worldwide from the 28th July.

PUMA AND AC MILAN UNVEIL THE NEW 2022/23 AWAY KIT INSPIRED BY THE ROSSONERI’S SEVEN EUROPEAN TITLES AND ICONIC WHITE KITS

Global sports company PUMA and Serie A Champions AC Milan have today launched the 2022/23 Away kit, inspired by the Rossoneri’s seven European titles, their iconic white kits and ‘That Milan Touch’. The new Away kit will be worn by the men’s, women’s and youth teams in their respective competitions.

AC Milan take a victory lap with the fresh all-white Away kit synonymous with some of the Club’s biggest titles and finals. In 1963, when the Club became the first Italian team to lift the European Champion Clubs’ Cup, AC Milan did so in an all-white strip. Six decades and seven European titles, the all-white Away kit remains an iconic part of the Club’s identity.

This season, the tradition continues with the throwback to a fan favorite; the 1984/85 Away kit. The white kit with horizontal pinstripes made an instant impact that year. This kicked off a new era of dominance for the Club, as they went on to win five more European titles wearing a white kit in every single final.

The white base features seven red horizontal stripes across the middle of the jersey in a fresh new take on the 1984/85 Away jersey. The seven stripes represent AC Milan’s seven European title triumphs, from the very first in 1963 at London’s Wembley Stadium, until the most recent title in Athens, 2007. The jersey features black and red trims on the sleeve cuffs and on the V-neck collar, along with the Milan coat of arms on the upper back.

 

“For this year’s Away kit, we wanted to bring back an all-white kit, an iconic look for AC Milan Away kits that has been a staple of recent trophies winning seasons,” said Marco Mueller, PUMA Senior Head of Product Line Management Teamsport Apparel. “AC Milan is steeped in history, so we looked to the 1984/85 season Away kit as an inspiration. We wanted to bring a fresh energy to that kit and celebrate iconic all-white kits of the past.”

Casper Stylsvig, Chief Revenue Officer of AC Milan, commented “AC Milan is a club that always looks to the future, whilst never forgetting its tradition and heritage. That is why we are particularly proud to unveil the new jersey, which mixes AC Milan’s great past with its innovative spirit and elegant style, hence creating a new product that we are sure will resonate well with our over 500 million fans across the globe. It is a jersey rich in symbolism, with the white kit being an iconic part of who we are and the seven stripes representing the club’s incredible success in Europe.”

Honorary Vice-President Franco Baresi, who was the Rossoneri captain in the 1984/85 season, also shared his comments on the new Away kit. “Having worn the original 1984/85 Away kit, I truly love the inspiration behind the new Away jersey for next season. The white jersey always has a special meaning for all AC Milan fans as it is a symbol of the global success of our beloved Club.”

 

The new Away kit embraces the strategic direction undertaken by AC Milan and PUMA, with the two brands utilizing the style, fashion and culture of Milan to develop performance and off-pitch fashionable products that tap into the unique Milanese style. A direction that transpires from the official photoshoot of the campaign, which features local Milanese talent and players from the AC Milan men’s and women’s teams as part of a stylish and elegant ensemble.

The new jersey arrives in two iterations. The Authentic jersey features ULTRAWEAVE performance fabric and dryCELL sweat-wicking technology, making the jersey the lightest and most comfortable PUMA has ever made. The Replica version is made with 100% recycled polyester and equipped with dryCELL sweat-wicking technology to keep you dry and comfortable throughout the 90 minutes and beyond – no matter the time, pitch or place. Both the Authentic and Replica jerseys are made with 100% recycled materials, excluding the trims and decorations as a step toward a better future.

Celebrate decades of titles and iconic white kits with the 2022/23 AC Milan Away kit, available to pre-order exclusively at the AC Milan store at the AC Milan Stadium and acmilan.com/shop from July 19th with the global release on July 22nd at PUMA stores, PUMA .com and at select retailers worldwide.

The new Away kit will make its debut on Saturday 23rd July, when the men’s team take on Zalaegerszegi TE at the ZTE Arena in Zalaegerszegi, Hungary.

PUMA & AC MILAN LAUNCH NEW AWAY KIT CELEBRATING FONDAZIONE MILAN PROMOTING “FROM MILAN TO THE WORLD” INITIATIVE

Global sports company PUMA has today unveiled the new AC Milan Away kit to be worn by the Men’s, Women’s and youth teams throughout the 2021/22 football season. The special new golden kit celebrates the work of Fondazione Milan, AC Milan’s charity, with the words “Fondazione Milan” printed under the collar on the back of the shirt. The new Away jersey also features a striking all-over pattern inspired by six cities across the world involved in a charitable initiative that will officially launch in September.

The “From Milan to the World” initiative, created by AC Milan’s Fondazione Milan, in partnership with PUMA, will give Rossoneri fans across the world the chance to vote to support a socio-educational project out of six proposals that will be presented in September, alongside local and international non-profit organizations. The end result will be the development of the selected program, linked to one of the six cities chosen for the initiative: New York (USA), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Kolkata (India), Melbourne (Australia), Nairobi (Kenya) and Milan (Italy).

Fondazione Milan was set up in 2003 with the aim to spark positive change in the community. The foundation continues to grow as more fans, partners and club legends join the cause, helping to expand the reach of the various initiatives implemented across the world.

Casper Stylsvig, AC Milan Chief Revenue Officer said, “We are proud to be launching this Away kit with our partner PUMA and celebrate the work of our Fondazione Milan, who does an incredible job helping people in need at a local and international level. The jersey itself looks very elegant with its golden color and geometric pattern, but most importantly it will help us bring some change into the world through the “From Milan to the World” initiative, which will launch in the near future. This is something we are particularly proud to be able to do as a club, because it fits perfectly within our social responsibility journey, which remains a very important aspect of our work at AC Milan, both on and off the pitch.

The new kit represents Milan’s impact from Milan to Italy to the World. AC Milan brings people together from different cultures, languages and ages as the club continues to expand its impact across the globe. Milan’s unbreakable bond with the team and the city sends an inclusive message to over 500 million Rossoneri fans worldwide, uniting people from the walls of the San Siro to the streets of Rio and beyond.

“AC Milan connects so many people across the world through football and charitable projects, so we wanted to pay tribute to this with the design of the shirt. The idea behind the bespoke graphic integrated into the jersey was to give each city connected to the Fondazione its own identity,” said Nick Willems, Graphic Designer Teamsport Apparel. “We placed distinct graphics created for each city inside outlines of those cities. We then added those graphics into a repeat pattern to connect all of the cities, symbolizing the strength of AC Milan and of the Fondazione.”

The new AC Milan Away jersey combines 100% recycled polyester with advanced PUMA dryCELL thermoregulation technology to ensure uncompromising fit and mobility, keeping the athlete dry and comfortable. The jersey integrates an Ultra-light jacquard structure into the back of the jersey to enhance breathability during intense performance. 

The new AC Milan Away kit will be available from July 21st at PUMA.com, PUMA stores, AC Milan official stores, store.milan.com and at select retailers worldwide.
