Craft will provide racing kits and casual wear to the team’s nearly 100 athletes.

"Craft’s dedication to supporting world class athletes through the development of the most advanced cycling clothing available coupled with the company’s support of our team’s mission to inspire, educate and empower people affected by diabetes, makes this a very special partnership."
"We at Craft are very excited about our new partnership with Team Novo Nordisk. This partnership allows us to equip the team with the most technical and functional team wear from the Craft brand, which we hope will help bring their performance to the next level," said Kjell Kaspersen, CEO of Craft and New Wave Denmark, the parent company of Craft.
