NEW YORK and CHICAGO, Jan. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Wilson Sporting Goods, the luxury travel and accessories brand, MCM Worldwide, and the National Football League (NFL) unveiled today a new collector's edition football exclusive for Super Bowl LIV in Miami, FL. This is the third product drop to emerge from the Wilson and MCM partnership, which started in 2018, and the collaboration's second limited-edition football with the NFL.

At the nexus of fashion and sport, Wilson, MCM Worldwide, and the NFL created a Limonta gold football to celebrate the 100th anniversary of professional football.

"Our partnership with MCM celebrates the cultural phenomenon and energy of the sports lifestyle movement," said Amanda Lamb, Wilson's Global Marketing Director of Team Sports. "For Super Bowl LIV, we wanted to create a football that brought together the very best of Wilson, MCM, and the League. The result is a ball that is unlike anything football and fashion fans have seen before, and that celebrates the 100th anniversary of the game in style."

This year we set out to create a truly unique, limited, collector's football to commemorate the NFL's 100th anniversary, and the result has exceeded expectations again," said Patrick Valeo, President of MCM Americas.
