Who Gives a Shirt
By PUMA
For some, the football shirt is a badge of pride. For others, it’s just another bit of polyester.
In this five-part series, ex-footballer Jack Fowler tries to make presenter Kimberley Cumberbatch “give a shirt” about the world’s most iconic sportswear.
Along the way they meet journalists, podcasters, die-hard fans, designers and upcyclers to uncover how the shirt went from the pitch to the stands, onto the streets — and even into conversations about its impact on the planet.
Will Jack convince Kimberley to give a shirt?
This is a FOREVER. BETTER. podcast by PUMA.
