PURCHASE, N.Y. (October 15, 2026) – If PEPSI® is your gameday drink, you already have great taste. And great taste deserves great gameday style. Starting today, Pepsi is teaming up with Off Season, the beloved sports-fashion brand founded by Kristin Juszczyk and Emma Grede, to give Pepsi cans a gameday fit of their own.
For the first Pepsi x Off Season collaboration, the brand behind the viral NFL puffer shrunk its signature jacket down to fit a 12-ounce Pepsi can. The result is a miniature puffer can jacket that keeps Pepsi cold, hands comfortable and team pride on display, whether fans are at the tailgate, inside the stadium or gathering at home.
The collaboration is the latest chapter of Tailgating Deserves Pepsi, the season-long platform built around the fact that gameday food tastes better with the bold taste of Pepsi.
THE MAIN EVENT: MINI NFL PUFFER CAN JACKETS
The puffer can jackets feature official NFL team colors and logos, working zippers and sleeves, and custom patches inspired by signature Off Season outerwear. The 15 styles celebrate each Pepsi NFL team partner: the Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, Dallas Cowboys, Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, New York Giants, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Commanders.
Fans can enter the Pepsi x Off Season Can Jacket Sweepstakes now through November 30 for a chance to receive a complimentary puffer can jacket.
“The puffer jacket is where Off Season began, and I had this idea to take our signature design and turn it into something completely unexpected,” said Kristin Juszczyk, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Off Season. “I enjoy a Pepsi at every game, so getting to partner with the brand to bring my vision to life was a perfect match. After all, there’s no better-tasting beverage to fill our miniature puffer can jackets. I can’t wait for fans to get their hands on them.”
The Pepsi x Off Season Tailgate Tour will give fans with tickets to the game the chance to get their hands on the mini NFL puffer can jackets in person, while supplies last. The tour kicks off October 19 outside Levi's® Stadium as the San Francisco 49ers take on the Washington Commanders, before continuing outside Lincoln Financial Field on November 8 as the Philadelphia Eagles take on the New York Giants, and November 25 for the Los Angeles Rams game at SoFi Stadium.
“Pepsi has always been at the center of gameday, from the food fans enjoy to the teams they rally behind,” said Gustavo Reyna, Vice President of Marketing, Pepsi. “With Off Season, we’re turning the Pepsi can in your hand into part of your gameday fit – bringing together great taste, team pride and one of football’s most recognizable fashion statements in a way only Pepsi can.”
As the Official Soft Drink of the NFL and a partner of 15 NFL teams, Pepsi has a distinct place within the food, fandom and traditions that define football season. Pepsi x Off Season gives fans a new way to bring that team pride to the Pepsi in their hand.
