Casper Ruud Joins Mango Man as Global Ambassador for the Essentials Collection
Casper Ruud, the Norwegian tennis player known for his precision and composure on court, has been announced as the new global ambassador for Mango Man. His appointment signals a step forward for the brand’s latest campaign, which spotlights the Essentials collection — a line of versatile, durable pieces designed to anchor the modern wardrobe.
Ruud becomes the face of a collection that’s less about fashion as theatre and more about consistency, refinement, and detail. Just as his game is defined by control and quiet strength, the Essentials line operates on the same principle: garments built with intention. The pieces — coats, jackets, sweaters, and tailored trousers — form a wardrobe that can move seamlessly between occasions. Neutral shades dominate the palette: black, grey, white, and muted brown. It’s less about statements and more about creating looks that are understated yet exact.
At the heart of the campaign is Mango Man’s “Craft Your Own Story” concept. It’s an ethos that encourages men to define their own approach to style rather than conform to stereotypes. Ruud embodies that message.
Since its founding in 2014, Mango Man has carved a place for itself by evolving the definition of menswear. Moving away from rigid archetypes, it has prioritised innovation and adaptability. Essentials is an extension of that philosophy — a system of clothing designed to work together, shifting easily between work, leisure, and everything in between.
With more than 560 stores across 90 countries and a strong digital presence, Mango Man has made its case as one of the modern leaders in menswear retail. Previous campaigns have seen names like Zinedine Zidane, Antoine Griezmann, Gerard Piqué, and Adrien Brody front the brand. Ruud is the latest to join that line-up, representing not just an athlete at the top of his game but a new chapter for Mango Man: one where the emphasis is on refined essentials that endure.
The Essentials collection is available now in Mango stores and online.
