Anti Social Social Club and Call of Duty have announced a partnership, spotlighting tactical-style apparel inspired by elements of the iconic first-person shooter. With items like a packable anorak jacket, a bomber jacket and pants, short and long-sleeved shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, and more, each option allows consumers to showcase their love for the game while remaining aligned with modern streetwear styles.
“Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 redefines storytelling and design. Anti Social Social Club built a movement on authenticity and connection among outsiders. This drop unites both worlds in a way that feels original, disruptive, and global for those who know, you know," said Tyler Bahl, Chief Marketing Officer, Activision.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 x Anti Social Social Club collection arrives on October 25, 2025.
