Godolphin secures Under Armour partnership

Horse racing stable Godolphin has sealed a partnership with sports footwear, apparel and equipment provider Under Armour.

The deal represents the first time an international equestrian organisation has teamed up with a leading global sports brand to be supplied with a bespoke clothing range.

Under Armour will produce a kit that is worn by jockeys, trainers and members of Team Godolphin as they train and compete in the UK, Ireland, Australia, the US, France and Dubai. Under Armour will supply more than 1,500 members of Team Godolphin with uniforms across four continents.

“Together, we can take horse racing apparel to the next level with the ultimate aim of delivering a long-lasting impact for the benefit of the equine industry at large,” Godolphin’s chief executive and racing manager, John Ferguson, said.
