Back in December 2023, we saw MLB star Shohei Ohtani sign a record-breaking $700 million, 10-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers. With the 2024-25 MLB season gearing up, the world is excited to see Ohtani on the field. Today, New Balance has also unveiled Ohntani's new logo, alongside three limited-edition t-shirts and a baseball glove to celebrate.
Chris Davis, the CMO of New Balance, stated: "Since joining forces with New Balance, Shohei Ohtani has been nothing short of incredible to work with both on and off the diamond. We have collaborated with Shohei on charitable endeavors in Japan, global brand storytelling, product, and a lot more still to come. Shohei is truly a reflection of our values, and this is just the beginning. We will continue to innovate, inspire, and give back in a way that can only be expressed through Shohei."
New Balance and Ohntani partnered up back at the start of the 2023 year. The two have been pretty quiet overall, but with this year's MLB season ramping up, we're seeing the "We Got Now" campaign in full blast. Stay tuned for more updates regarding this partnership between Shohei Ohtani and New Balance, for now, get ready for the limited edition t-shirts dropping at the end of this month!
