Nope, you’re not seeing double! You read that right. Today, Metro FC announces a new partnership for the 2021 season with leading online eyewear company Zenni. Included in the agreement is the primary logo placement on both the primary and alternate jerseys as well as other gameday promotions. 

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Zenni,” said Francis Langbein, president of Metro FC. “We’re proud to be representing a local brand that has already proved it cares about investing in the sports community. This is a milestone moment for our club that we are so happy to share.”

“As a company that touts ‘eyewear for everyone’ we’re excited to bring our support for athletics to the grassroots level and support a team like Metro FC,” said Sean Pate, Brand Marketing and Communications Officer at Zenni. “As a Bay Area born company, we are proud to support the athletes and fans of Metro FC with our high quality low priced eyewear for all their needs on and off the pitch.”

Zenni pioneered the online eyewear industry in 2003 with a mission to make prescription eyewear affordable and accessible to everyone. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Zenni offers men, women, and children the freedom to express their personal style through high-quality prescription and protective eyewear curated with a sense for fashion and incredible selection. Zenni is proud to be the Official Eyewear of the Boston Red Sox, San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bulls.

Metro FC plays in the Premier Division of the San Francisco Soccer Football League (SFSFL). Metro has a chance to make history in 2021 by being the first team in 40 years to win back to back to back championships in the league’s 3rd, 2nd and 1st level, respectively. The short term focus for the club is to complete this “from the bottom to the top” Cinderella story. Metro’s long term mission is to “play the best competition for the biggest trophies.” In the US, this takes not just success on the field but a strong community of supporters as well.

Metro FC fans will get their first live look of the new jersey and sponsorship in the June 6th season opener at Beach Chalet Fields in Golden Gate Park at 12:45p.

Fans can purchase both jerseys now by visiting the Metro FC online store at sfmetrofc.com/shop.
