An active social media presence aggregating 667,000+ followers across platforms functions as a community and acquisition channel.

The 2025 product calendar shows continuous catalog expansion, with new launches across Adidas World Cup, Adidas Copa GL Pro, Adidas Predator GL Pro, Elite Sport, and Real goalkeeper gloves, alongside geographic coverage of at least seven European countries (Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, France, Poland, Spain). Operations are lean, with reported headcount of 1-10 employees and no external funding disclosed.
