Founded in 2009, Fourg Athletics (/fôrj/) is a leader in American made custom athletic team wear, apparel, and decals.

They provide a one-stop-shop for teams and organizations by generating team stores and fundraising opportunities for programs that need it. Fourg Athletics prides itself on giving back to the community that helped build it, by designing specially curated collections and donating the proceeds to the organizations that benefit breast cancer awareness, veteran groups, social justice issues, and more.
"We are extremely excited to launch this expanded partnership between Major League Lacrosse and Fourg Athletics," said Justin Lappen, President of Fourg Athletics. "Through this partnership, Fourg Athletics will provide MLL fans with a vast selection of apparel and accessories for their favorite teams. We believe this new rollout will further strengthen the MLL and Fourg brands among, not only our communities, but also in the professional sports arena."
Fourg joined the Major League Lacrosse roster in the summer of 2020 as the official mask provider of the 2020 season. After the successful launch of the partnership, they have expanded their offering to fans. Fans will be able to find the full product offering on: shop.majorleaguelacrosse.com.
To kick off the launch of the new Major League Lacrosse x Fourg Athletics partnership, Fourg has developed a "Limited Edition Collection" to highlight both 'Military Appreciation' for Veterans Day and Native American Heritage Month. The collection mimics military-themed styling branded with the American flag, team logos, MLL logo, and reads "Land of The Free, Home of The Brave" on the hood of the fleece and the back of Tees. In addition, a portion of all proceeds will be donated to The Native American Veterans Association (NAVA), a veterans organization that assists Native Americans in the transition from military to civilian life after service. The organization honors all Native Americans who served, are on active duty, and their families. For more information on The Native American Veterans Association (NAVA), please visit navavets.org.
