Western United will be powered by ASICS for the 2023/24 season with the sports apparel giant joining the Club as the Official Footwear Partner.
Having previously worked together on a small deal featuring discounts for players and staff, ASICS have now strengthened their support to move into a larger scale partnership.
ASICS is continuing to emerge in the football world and is bringing top of the range boots to the table, demonstrated by none other than Western United captain Josh Risdon.
As part of the partnership, ASICS will provide education sessions for Western United players from the A-Leagues set-ups right through to the Junior Academy to showcase their products and the performance benefits they provide.
The ASICS branding will feature prominently across matchday signage throughout the season, while Western United players will be seen wearing the latest products on and off the pitch.
Western United General Manager of Commercial Chris Speldewinde is delighted to have the support of a heavyweight in the footwear industry.
“ASICS are known for some of the best footwear going around and we are extremely proud to be working with one of the most iconic global brands,” he said.
“We look forward to seeing many of our athletes wearing ASICS and enjoying the amazing technology and comfort they provide.”
Mark Brunton, Managing Director of ASICS Oceania, is delighted to be upgrading the partnership between ASICS and Western United.
“Whilst we have had a relationship in place with Western United for the past couple of seasons, we are excited at the opportunity to upgrade this to become the Official Footwear Partner,” he said.
“ASICS is synonymous with performance footwear and this partnership ties in to the release of our newly developed Swift Strike football boot.
“We look forward to working with the team at Western United as we continue to develop our range of boots specific to football.”
Bringing their world-leading comfort and cutting-edge technology into a range of football boots, ASICS features the only range of football boots in Australia to be recommended by both Sports Medicine Australia and the Australian Physiotherapy Association.
Mixing comfort with a premium, lightweight and flexible boot, ASICS is bringing their football products to the top of the game.
