– In addition to styling the Rossoneri’s off-field uniforms, the union aims to bring both the club and the brand’s shared values together to create positive change. Centred on the celebration of humanity, the commitment builds upon the “I Support” vernacular introduced by Virgil Abloh back in 2020 – aligning with AC Milan’s values and RespAct manifesto – it plans to share the positive value of sports whilst tackling all forms of prejudice and discrimination.
