“The NFL continues to reimagine our consumer products through standout collaborations that capture the essence of the brands involved,” says Joe Ruggiero, senior vice president, consumer products, NFL. “This collection, which launches ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft, features retro designs that will appeal to new and existing fans alike. We are excited to celebrate characters people adore such as Mickey Mouse, Marvel’s Captain America and Luke Skywalker designed alongside the NFL teams they love.”

This is the NFL’s and Disney’s most extensive co-branded apparel collection together. The collection offers unisex short sleeve T-shirts with the following as retro art designs.

“We are always looking for ways to engage with our fans in new and unexpected ways, and this collaboration with the NFL allows us to do just that,” says Josh Silverman, executive vice president, third-party commercialization, Disney Consumer Products, Games and Publishing. “Fans can now celebrate their favorite teams and characters from Disney, Marvel and ‘Star Wars’ and all in time for the NFL 2021 season to begin.”
