The Serie A Femminile team, AS Roma Women have announced a partnership with Harmont & Blaine, an Italian high-end, smart-casual clothing company.
As part of the deal, the brand has been labelled as the official style partner of the women’s first team.
Harmont & Blaine, which is well-known for its Dachshund mascot, has been onboarded to supply clothing for the players, technical personnel, and management. The partnership has already been unveiled during the Italian Super Cup final against Juventus on January 7.
The brand is set to provide a range of formal wear and kits that are motivated by the passion and determination of the female Italian champions. Along with this, the high-performance technical fabric is being used to produce the clothing, which has unique elements evoking the club’s colours.
The outfit includes a cushioned soft-shell parka, a blazer/trouser suit in a crease-resistant jersey, a quilted down vest, a poplin shirt, a pure wool sweater, a t-shirt, and cashmere and cotton socks. In addition, two more polo shirts are included in the clothing set for technical staff members in the menswear line.
Furthermore, AS Roma’s logo and the company’s iconic dachshund, the Blaine is embroidered into the clothing. Through this agreement, Harmont & Blaine will become heavily active in women’s sports by backing players’ official appearances and initiating a range of projects and ad hoc material involving the club’s stars, including photoshoots, advertising campaigns, and event participation.
