AC Milan, PUMA, and Off-White have recently collaborated to release the AC Milan x Off-White 2025 kit, a project that merges football, fashion, and culture. This partnership introduces Off-White’s first-ever kit designed for use on the pitch, specifically centered around the concept of “Dreamland” and how it is connected to progress, unity, and transformation.
The number “63” seems to be everywhere in this kit, as we can see it printed, for example, on the inner collar of the jersey. This number has great historical and cultural significance as it marks AC Milan’s first-ever European Cup victory and the year of Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, which is still a global call for equality and social justice. The three brands—AC Milan, PUMA, and Off-White—align around this belief in the power of dreams, and now they’ve put it on a kit available to anyone who dares.
Maikel Oettle, Chief Commercial Officer of AC Milan, described the collaboration as “a milestone for AC Milan, bringing together football, fashion, and values in a way that is both bold and meaningful. Partnering with Off-White on their first-ever playing kit alongside PUMA allows us to create something truly unique, perfectly aligning with AC Milan’s legacy and vision for the future.”
Design and colours
The kit is available in two palettes, both incorporating Pan-African colors to symbolize unity and celebrate Black excellence. The main design features a black base that fades into a power green shade, with sizzle yellow logos and red details on the collar and cuffs. The alternative jersey is dressed in a red base that gradually transitions into a power green, with monochrome detailing and yellow highlights on the collar and cuffs.
Both jerseys feature Off-White’s signature design elements, and the team’s players’ surnames appear on the back. But there’s more: the word “Diavoli,” a reference to AC Milan’s historic nickname, is incorporated into a custom badge.
“This partnership celebrates not only AC Milan’s footballing heritage but also the power of dreams and progress. We are honoured to work with Off-White™ to bring this iconic moment to life.”
Marco Mueller, Senior Director of Product Line Management Teamsport at PUMA
Functionality and sustainability
Both the Authentic and Replica versions of the jersey are designed with sustainability in mind, as dreams need a future to grow into. Authentic Jersey, worn by the players, is made with PUMA’s ULTRAWEAVE fabric, which reduces weight and friction, complemented with dryCELL technology for moisture management. The Replica Jersey offers a more relaxed fit. Still, it maintains the same dryCELL technology, but this time with PUMA’s RE:FIBRE materials, which are made from at least 95% recycled textile waste.
“The collaboration between Off-White, AC Milan, and PUMA”, said Cristiano Fagnani, CEO of Off-White, “is not just a tribute to style and innovation but also an opportunity to celebrate the cultural legacy and influence of the Black community in sports and fashion. During Black History Month, this Fourth kit becomes a symbol of connection, identity, and pride, uniting past, present, and future through the universal language of football and streetwear.”
Digital and on-site launch
The concept of Dreamland extends beyond the physical kit into digital spaces, with unique events being held in Rocket League and Fortnite beginning on February 21. On the other hand, the launch event will be held in Milan, and several figures from the worlds of art, culture, and entertainment are expected to appear. There, guests will be able to explore the concept of Dreamland and discover the shared values behind the collaboration. VIP guests and some fans also invited to experience the design process and cultural impact firsthand.
On-pitch debut
The AC Milan x Off-White kit will debut in Serie A on February 15, when AC Milan’s men’s First Team faces Hellas Verona. The team will wear the kit’s black version, while the goalkeeper will wear the red one. In the following match against Lazio, the players will switch to the red version, with the goalkeeper wearing the black design.
