MONTA HELP SUPPORT VIETNAM
FREESTYLE
In another show of commitment and support for the
worldwide Football Freestyle scene, Monta – the Dutch based Street Football
clothing brand – was a major Prize Clothing Sponsor for the Vietnamese CLEARmen
Football Freestyle Competition held in Ho Chi Minh City on December 20th
2009.
In another World first for Football Freestyle in
Vietnam, all ten Finalists received Monta clothing as a part of their prize
package and the football street fashion brand was extremely well received!
The eventual competition winner, Le Anh Tuan from
Hanoi, was extremely happy to receive his share from this iconic
clothing
brand, “This street football wear is not available in Vietnam but many
people know
about it through the internet and all world’s most famous Football
Freestylers
who wear Monta clothing!” he said.
Indeed, it is this endorsement by many of the
leading players in Football Freestyle on places like You Tube, at live
events
and other types of promotional platforms that have seen both recognition
and
demand levels for Monta clothing continue to rise.
Another CLEARmen Finalist from Hanoi, Do Kim Phuc
helped to elaborate this point, “We have all been watching players like
Nam the
Man and Palle on the internet for many years to learn and be amazed by
them,
but also notice that they are always wearing this cool Monta clothing!
And now
we get to wear it also! It’s great” he exclaimed!
It must be said that the recognition and brand
awareness levels are extremely high in Vietnam for Monta with the famous
Monta
freestyle ball being one of the most recognised of all!
“ They all love Monta here and I think it is a
combination that it is cool, stylish street wear and the fact that this
brand is associated with both the
sport they love and that their heroes like Nam the Man wear the brand”
said
With all
Freestylers
wanting to practice and train with the ones that Nam the Man brought
with him
to Vietnam.
Managing Director of Kaos Football Peter Konsto who spent close to 2
months in
Vietnam together with Nam the Man on the
CLEARmen events, exploring business opportunities and expanding their
networks
in the Asian region.
Nam the Man continued, “They really like the look
of the clothing and what it represents. The logo also has made a huge
impact.
It is very Asian/oriental in nature, with the dragon being a very
important and
powerful symbol of both good fortune and power here in Vietnam as it is
in most
Asian countries”
Monta representative, Ivar Schout said, “ It is
very exciting for us as a brand to know that we are making such an
impact in
places like Vietnam and we hope we can grow the business into these
types of
regions in the coming years”.
There is no doubt that there is a big future for
Monta both Vietnam and Asia as a whole both as Fooball Freetsyle and
Street
Football continue to grow at such a rapid rate.
