We are incredibly proud to announce our partnership with Verge to bring our wild and brash designs to life. Coalition elite riders will be racing in Verge’s exclusive Pain Cave collection, indoor-specific apparel engineered to keep athletes cool and dry during intense indoor workouts and races.
"We’re thrilled to partner with The Coalition as they race at the highest level of esports," said Charlie Issendorf, VP of Sales & Marketing at Verge. "Their feedback will be invaluable in helping us refine our products and ensure they meet the demands of elite athletes in this fast-evolving sport."
Rhys Howell, Coalition’s founder and team director, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership: "Since the team’s inception, we have always looked to partner with only the most innovative brands who share our vision. Verge has a clear commitment to esports and working together means our athletes can help to develop the cycling apparel of the future.” Coalition team member Lionel Vujasin praised the Pain Cave kit, saying, "It's the most comfortable kit I have ever worn."
The Coalition elite team can be found racing in two distinctive designs. Taking inspiration from other sports, the team created both a ‘home’ and ‘away’ kit which are used for different occasions. Rhys adds, “We are renowned for having loud kits that stand out in the bunch. For this season we wanted to evolve our previous design and created this ‘datamoshed’ version, that looks like it is glitching. I believe this is our best kit yet!”
Both kits are available to purchase from the team store on Verge’s website.
With this collaboration, Verge continues its push into the esports world, providing cutting-edge gear to athletes competing at the highest level. Stay tuned for more exciting developments as Coalition riders take on the UCI Esports World Championship and other top-tier esports events.
