Hugo – a Gen-Z inspired sub-brand of German giant Hugo Boss, will design Visa Cash App RB’s teamwear for the upcoming 2024 season.

VCARB, who are in the first year of a rebrand, were previously called AlphaTauri – the fashion line of parent company Red Bull.

They may no longer hold the title sponsor of a clothing giant, but they have enlisted the services of Hugo to help them look dapper this year.
