Arsenal Women have teamed up with Stella McCartney’s Adidas to create a 10-piece collection that includes a gender-neutral jersey worn by both women’s and men’s teams.
Arsenal and Adidas have revived their relationship with a reported £ 65 million-a-year contract, which began at the start of the 2019-2020 season, 25 years after their previous partnership ended.
This is the first time McCartney has partnered with a women’s soccer club, but it’s Adidas’ addition to Stella McCartney’s soccer collection, which also includes the Predator Freak vegan soccer boot.
