The partnership will celebrate the shared relationship between the city of Manchester and the Italian brand, established in the 80s through authentic engagement with the football fandom.
Despite the 1,750 kilometres separating Bologna and Manchester, both cities resonate with the same indomitable spirit.
United by a rich industrial heritage and a deep connection to music, they represent the dreams and aspirations of entire generations.
Together, they celebrate the past while looking to the future, embodying a perfect fusion of history, subculture, and passion.
As the Official Style Fashionwear Partner of the Manchester City men’s first team, C.P. Company will design an exclusive range of fashionwear to be worn exclusively by Manchester City’s men’s first team players, coaching staff and executive management when travelling for UEFA Champions League away fixtures, in addition to a number of other matches.
Among them, there’s the iconic Goggle Jacket, developed in a customised silhouette with co-branded lenses and embroidered logos.
All garments are reworked in the signature colours of C.P. Company (Navy Blue) and Manchester City (Light Blue).
Throughout the duration of the partnership, C.P. Company will also support City in the Community’s (CITC) Healthy Goals programme, which will see the renovation of three community and school pitches over the course of the partnership.
Kaitlyn Beale, Vice President Global Partnership Sales at City Football Group, said: “We’re pleased to announce a new partnership with C.P. Company today.
“Both Manchester City and the Italian brand play a key role in football culture in the UK and beyond, with passionate followers and a shared commitment to embracing new trends and innovation.
“We’re looking forward to working with C.P. Company over the coming seasons.”
Lorenzo Osti, President of C.P. Company, said: “Our partnership represents an exciting journey from Bologna to Manchester, where two visions, inspired by the same values, harmoniously merge.
“The aesthetic symbolism of the C.P. Company Goggle Jacket has become an icon for football fans, a project where sporting aspiration embraces and keeps its roots alive.”
