MLS, Adidas & Marvel collection launched: price, where to buy...
The Comic Book company have teamed up with MLS for a collaboration that will be used during the All-Star game vs Arsenal.
MLS, Adidas and Marvel have joined forces to create a special selection of items for the upcoming All-Star game that will be played against Premier League runners up, Arsenal on July 19 at Audi Field, Washington, D.C.
Their new Super Hero collaboration celebrates the “tremendous momentum behind soccer in North America” and includes jackets, shirts and an official match ball, to be used when the best players in the league come up against Mikel Arteta’s side.
The MLS All-Star ball is mainly white with a black graphic pattern and gold characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe are printed over the top. The famous red logo appears next to the three stripes branding and the MLS badge, as well as the signature of Don Garber, the commissioner.
Where can I buy the MLS x Marvel All-Star ball?
The special edition ball can be bought from MLS store, as well as Adidas’ online store.
How much does it cost?
The Adidas MLS Marvel 2023 football retails at $170 for the pro edition, an exact replica of the one to be used in the game. A more wallet-friendly version is available for $30, and a Mini ball costs $15. The sportswear items cost between $70 and $100.
Are MLS teams collaborating with Marvel?
The MLS All-Star collection is not the only Marvel-inspired collaboration we will see on North American soccer pitches this summer, as it seems that other teams such as Portland Timbers and LA Galaxy are also getting in on the action. The clubs simultaneously announced upcoming collections of Marvel-inspired pieces that are dropping throughout the summer. That is certainly one to keep an eye on.
MLS released a statement: “Through this collection, the three organizations celebrate a period of tremendous momentum behind soccer in North America and provide new ways for both MLS and Marvel fans alike to engage with the sport and characters they love. The unique product offerings, mixed with creative design elements, position MLS and Marvel at the intersection of sports and fashion as they celebrate the cultural moment surrounding heroes on and off the field.”
