There’s something stirring in Milan, and it’s not just on the turf of the San Siro. As the lines between sport, style and culture continue to blur, AC Milan are leading the charge with a movement that redefines what it means to be a football club in the modern era.
The latest drop in AC Milan's cultural exploration is a refined, boundary-breaking golf capsule collection created in collaboration with PUMA Golf – a bold step into new territory that also doubles as a launchpad for Clubhouse, the club’s freshly unveiled cultural platform. It’s the latest in a growing list of crossover moments from a club that’s not just watching culture from the sidelines – it’s shaping it. While football is not the focus, slumbering in the off season, the club has been working on expanding its influence; their recent cycling collab with Castelli already hinted at a new creative direction, one that connects their deep-rooted heritage with sporting and lifestyle worlds far beyond football. Now, with golf in the frame, they're driving that message even further down the fairway.
The AC Milan x PUMA Golf collection is a precise blend of performance and poise – football DNA reinterpreted for the course and the clubhouse. With tonal palettes, clean cuts, and subtle Rossoneri detailing, the collection balances sporting intent with quiet luxury. Key pieces like the Golf Club Polo in White Glow and the Quarter-Zip in PUMA Black offer versatility from tee box to streetwear scene. The Classic G Golf Shoe rounds it all off with a minimalist nod to club legacy, grounding the look in all-day comfort and Milanese cool.
Christian Pulisic leads the line for the launch – AC Milan attacker, PUMA ambassador, and full-time golf aficionado. His presence is fitting. “Golf has always been one of my biggest passions outside of football,” says Pulisic. “What makes AC Milan unique is how the Club embraces creativity and culture both on and off the pitch. This collection reflects that spirit.”
And that spirit now has a name – Clubhouse. More than a capsule or campaign, Clubhouse is AC Milan’s new cultural platform: a living, breathing extension of the club’s identity. It’s where football meets fashion, design, music, art – a space for connection, collaboration and cultural conversation.
This kind of crossover thinking isn’t new for Milan. The club has a habit – a very stylish one – of hooking up with names from outside the traditional football sphere. Their fourth kits have become annual experiments in aesthetic evolution, with bold collaborations that push the envelope. In 2022, it was NEMEN – tactical, technical, military-inspired. In 2023, KOCHÉ brought a gender-fluid, haute-couture-meets-athleticwear energy. In 2024, LA-based streetwear disruptors PLEASURES gave the Rossoneri a hard-edged, punk-infused makeover. And in 2025, it came full circle with a full-kit partnership with Off_White, continuing the dialogue that began when Milan first appointed the late Virgil Abloh’s brand as the club’s official style curator back in 2022.
Even before that, Milan were tapping into global street culture with their 2021 collaboration with Paper Planes, the brand co-founded by Jay-Z, merging hip hop aesthetics with European football heritage. It was a move that was preceded by their industry-first partnership with Roc Nation.
Each collab isn’t just a flex – it’s part of a bigger picture. Milan aren’t doing this for the hype. They’re building a cultural universe that’s as ambitious and stylish as their football. And Clubhouse is the natural progression of that – a permanent creative platform that speaks to the evolving identity of the club and its fans.
From their founding in 1899 as a football and cricket club to now, Milan have always had a broader cultural view. Clubhouse distils that legacy into a global idea – a Milan-inspired meeting point for lifestyle, innovation, and storytelling.
So whether it’s in the streets of Milan, the greens of a golf course, or a Paris runway, AC Milan are showing us what it means to be a football club in 2025. This isn’t just about sport. It’s about style, soul, and staying one step ahead.
