Forest Green Rovers Launches “World’s First” Vegan-Certified Football Kit

Forest Green Rovers, a football club based in England, has released what they claim to be the world's first fully vegan-certified football kit for the upcoming season. The kit, developed in collaboration with Reflo and the Vegan Society, features a leopard print design inspired by nature and is made from recycled materials that can be fully recycled at the end of its life. The club aims to promote sustainability by reducing waste and environmental impact with this new kit.

The club has a history of sustainability initiatives, including a fully plant-based menu since 2015 and partnerships with meat-free brands. Forest Green Rovers also utilizes solar panels, renewable energy, and other eco-friendly practices to reduce carbon footprint. The chairman, Dale Vince, has been appointed as a Climate Champion for the United Nations. The new vegan-certified kit reflects the club's commitment to pushing boundaries in sustainable sportswear and promoting environmental consciousness in the football industry.
