The German clothing brand Puma has joined the Ukrainian esports association – NAVI as a technical partner. This means that PUMA will be in charge of creating the new NaVi uniforms for the remainder of the season. The PUMA signature tricot will, of course, be available for purchase on the organization’s website, in the brand’s online and stationery stores, and at other sporty discount retailers throughout the world.
Natus Vincere Marketing Manager Oleksandr ‘nervo-‘ Pavlenko commented on the deal in a broadcast: “In esports, it’s hard to find someone who has never heard of NAVI. Likewise, PUMA is one of the most valuable and recognized brands in sports. Long history and bold decisions that were ahead of their time and led to advances in our respective disciplines bind us together.”
This isn’t the first time PUMA has partnered with an esports organization. Remember that Cloud9, x-kom AGO, and Gen.G are among the brands that the brand supports. AC Milan, Borussia Dortmund, and Manchester City all wear PUMA gear on the field.
