BALR. X ABSOLUT FOR A MORE TOLERANT CLUB LIFE

In England, a second division player recently made his homosexuality public - a courageous step that is hopefully just the beginning. Apart from him, there is no active player in European male professional soccer who has come out publicly. That means that one of the most popular sports in Europe still shows too little willingness and courage to take a clear stand against intolerance. And this within a modern society that is becoming more and more tolerant and openminded. What is still missing is the courage of the cosmopolitan majority to position loudly and stand up against it as a community.

That's why Absolut Vodka and BALR. have developed a limited collaboration to make football more inclusive. Your sexual identity or orientation do not matter on the pitch. Only your passion does.

BALR. X ABSOLUT

The BALR. X Absolut Hoodie and Tshirt blends the iconic logos of the brands into a statement. BALR.’s hexagon logo and Absolut’s iconic bottle design are combined in rainbow colours on the chest to show your support for more LGBTQIA* tolerance in football.
