The NFL and Fanatics have collaborated to launch the "Football x Football" Collection, a special range of fan tops that reimagines all 32 NFL clubs through the lens of classic football (soccer) jersey designs.
What is a bit awkward is that the NFL/Fanatics have taken the most basic white and black football in the launch, evoking memories of soccer stock images.
Fanatics NFL "Football x Football" Collection
Each of the 32 fan tops in the "Football x Football" collection has been specially designed. Every jersey features bespoke detailing inspired by the identity, history, and spirit of every individual NFL club.
To ensure authenticity and a genuine blend of both sports’ traditions, the collection was developed by a global design team spanning Europe, South America, and the U.S. This diverse expertise guarantees that each piece genuinely pays homage to both soccer culture and the rich heritage of the NFL.
The Fanatics NFL "Football x Football" collection is not available to buy online. It made its debut at Fanatics Fest NYC, a 3-day fan festival running from June 20-22 at the Javits Center. For international fans eager to get their hands on these unique tops, Fanatics has indicated that limited releases will be coming to NFL Shops globally.

Good or Bad? Rexona Armpit Sponsorship on 2026 World Cup Referee Shirts
Update - Tuesday, June 23, 2026: Following our publication, Rexona contacted us to provide additional context on the activation.
According to Ben Curtis, Global Brand Vice President for Rexona at Unilever, the sponsorship is intended to highlight fourth officials, who "may not always be the focus of attention but are at the centre of some of football's most intense and anticipated moments," as part of Rexona's "It Won't Let You Down" campaign during the FIFA World Cup 2026. "They need to remain cool and calm under pressure - That's exactly why this partnership is such a natural fit for Rexona."
The 2026 World Cup referee shirts feature one of the most amusing and strategic sponsorship placements seen in football. Deodorant brand Rexona has their logo positioned directly under the armpits of the match officials' jerseys, creating a highly contextual advertising opportunity.
The Rexona logo remains largely hidden during regular play but becomes clearly visible whenever a referee raises their arms to signal a free kick, award a penalty, or issue a card. This placement perfectly matches the deodorant product being advertised, resulting in a memorable piece of marketing on the sport's biggest stage.
While this specific placement has caught the attention of fans during the 2026 tournament, it is not entirely unprecedented. A similar concept was previously executed in Brazil, where Avanço deodorant sponsored the armpits of Corinthians. However, Rexona's execution at a World Cup brings the clever concept to a massive global audience.
