Oxen Sports and Catalans Dragons are proud to announce a new footwear partnership, deepening the brand’s footprint in elite Rugby League while supporting player performance and development at every level.
The collaboration will see Oxen work closely with Catalans’ professional squad and pathway players, using the expertise of Oxen Athletes such as Sam Tomkins to educate the next generation of Dragons stars on the critical role footwear plays in injury prevention, movement efficiency, and overall performance.
Leveraging Oxen’s cutting-edge design and performance technology, the partnership aims to deliver tailored solutions that meet the demands of modern rugby league — from grassroots to the top tier of the sport.
Aspiring players across the region will also benefit from the partnership, with Oxen’s full range of boots available for trial and purchase at the Catalans Dragons boutique store at Stade Gilbert Brutus.
Lee Jenkinson, CEO of Oxen Sports, said:
“We’re excited to bring our footwear technology and player-first philosophy to a club with the ambition and identity of Catalans Dragons. This partnership is about more than boots, it’s about empowering players with the knowledge and tools to maximise performance and reduce injury risk, whether they’re academy prospects or first-team stars.”
Christophe Levy, Commercial Director of Catalans Dragons, added:
“Partnering with Oxen on footwear allows us to invest in an area of the game that’s often overlooked but crucial to player welfare and performance. Their team brings real insight, and their commitment to education and innovation aligns perfectly with how we develop talent at Catalans.”
