The French heavyweights have also created performance, training, and lifestyle lines, with NBA sensation Zion Williamson introducing the Air Jordan 5 Low PSG shoe earlier this month.

This season, players like Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, and Lionel Messi will travel while sporting the new changing kit, making PSG feel at home even while they're away from their home stadium.
