Vermont Green FC has unveiled new Training Top for the 2023 season. Featuring three colorways–Mint, Pink, and Lavender–the tops will be worn at all practices in 2023, beginning on Tuesday, May 16th. They will also be available in limited supply in the official Vermont Green FC shop.
The 2023 Training Top proudly displays the logos of our partners Ben & Jerry’s, Sticky Brand, The University of Vermont, and Vivid Coffee. The club is grateful for the continued support, helping to grow a budding football culture in Vermont, together.
Vermont Green FC kit partner, PlayerLayer, produces garments with a manufacturer that is a member of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, operating in state-of-the-art factories designed with climate change and environmental stewardship in mind. They use the Higg Index product tools to measure the environmental and social impacts of all products.
Each top is made from approximately 23 recycled plastic water bottles and is Global Recycling Standard certified. Vermont Green FC is playing a small part in helping our manufacturer convert more than 12 million recycled plastic water bottles into new products.
The two factories that produce these tops are covered in 992 solar panels that will generate power savings equivalent to over 340 tons of carbon dioxide. This is equivalent to taking nearly 74 passenger vehicles off the road each year.
The factories have award-winning recycled waste management systems that include paper, metal, plastic, fabric, food, hazardous, and mixed waste. Waste fabric from production is collected and sent to a facility to be upcycled into other products.
The 2023 Training Top was designed by club co-founder Matthew Wolff and supporter Casey Peckio.
Vermont Green FC announced in April that all 2023 season tickets have been sold out — a total of 1,250 season ticket holders. Single match tickets are now on sale for all ten home matches at UVM’s Virtue Field. Grab your 2023 tickets at tickets.vermontgreenfc.com
