"I’m genuinely so excited to be co-hosting this podcast and diving into the amazing stories behind football shirts. It’s wild to see how something as simple as a shirt can mean so much to people, forming part of their identities and core memories" - Jack Fowler Kerstin Neuber, Senior Director Corporate Communications at PUMA, said: " Football shirts are powerful symbols of fandom, yet their environmental impact is not widely explored. With Who Gives a Shirt, we celebrate their cultural and historical significance while highlighting the designs shaping the future of sportswear. It’s about honoring tradition while driving the game, and the industry, forward in a responsible way." Who Gives a Shirt builds on the foundation of PUMA’s Green Flags podcast , continuing to explore the role of sustainability in sport and fashion.
