Getting set for a season behind the controller, PUMA and Manchester City have unveiled the club’s latest dedicated esports products – a limited edition clothing range comprising a new esports shirt and leisure hoody.
With the launch of FIFA 22, there’s a certain amount of focus on the world of esports, and using that as a springboard, PUMA and Manchester City have dropped their latest esports collection. It’s set to be worn by City’s professional esports players Shaun ‘Shellzz’ Springette, the current ePremier League champion, and Ryan Pessoa as they represent the Club in FIFA competitions this season.
The collection features a new esports shirt and hoody, and the design of the former sees an extension of the digital clock graphic that features on this season’s home shirt, which celebrates the iconic 93:20 goal from the incredible 2011/12 season that provided one of the greatest moments in City’s history.
Manchester City’s Official Exhibition Partner, Expo 2020 Dubai, will become the first front of shirt partner for a City esports shirt, having recently been unveiled as the Club’s new training kit partner. Nexen Tire and Etisalat continue their longstanding support of City esports and will feature on the shirt sleeves.
City esports player and current ePremier League champion, Shellzz, commented: “The new shirt design is amazing! I also like the introduction of a hoody this season which I know is going to be really popular in the gaming community. It’s exciting for us players and gaming fans when City and PUMA drop new products and every year the range just gets better and better.
“We feel really fortunate to have our own esports shirt to wear when we represent the Club and hopefully we’ll be celebrating more success in these shirts this season.”
