Fans have been eagerly waiting for the Valorant Champions Official Merchandise announcement. Riot and Valorant released designs that resonate with streetwear fashion.
Valorant and Riot Games are commemorating the first-ever Valorant Champions. They announced the release of Official merchandise.
The merch is available starting November 29th, Monday. But, there are certain limitations to consider too.
Obviously, the stocks for the merch will be limited. As of now, two apparel and one accessory in 2 colourways are revealed.

The Champions 2021 Apparel collection will include:
- 1 Champions 2021 Short Sleeve Tee.
- 2 Champions 2021 Long Sleeve Tee.
- 3 Champions 2021 Hoodie // Navy Edition.
- 4 Champions 2021 Hoodie // Gold Edition.

- 6 Champions 2021 Dad Hat // Gold Edition.
The Apparel looks fresh, though not so minimal. So, it is nice of Riot to include multiple products in the merchandise lineup.

Valorant Champions Merchandise design philosophy and criticism.
The colourway reflects the dark and golden theme of the Valorant Champions. Yet, certain design choices are questionable.
The Valorant logo is hardly visible in most apparel. But, it is more of a contrast issue. Also, the problem carries over to “Valorant Champions” cursive text.
The choice of the base colour is superb, even though it’s basic. All in all, it does not seem that the designers have given much love to their creations.
Riot Games had to say the following on their website:
“The first official VALORANT Champions Tour apparel is coming soon. This collection of streetwear-inspired apparel is rooted in the core thematic of Champions – The Art of Greatness.”
Good luck on your first ever Valorant Champions merchandise purchase. Visit the Riot merch store to look at available items.
