Castore is the sportswear brand that sponsors Andy Murray, and the two-time Wimbledon champion will continue to represent the brand throughout the tournament at SW19.
The 36-year-old's kit is made from merino wool, which is thermoregulation and responds to changing body temperature.
The collaboration started in 2019 with the collection made using recycled and regenerated materials.
Just two months after Murray first partnered with Castore, he became a shareholder in the business.

What has Andy Murray said about Castore?
At the launch of the range, Murray said: “I work with the AMC designers on every piece, with technical performance at the heart of the process.
“It’s important that the kit performs under the toughest conditions. I really enjoy testing it, giving it my feedback and being part of the design process.”
The three-time Grand Slam winner also spoke about working with Castore with GQ in 2021: "Working with Castore is certainly different from the other relationships that I’ve had with clothing brands throughout my career.
"The traditional sponsorship deal I had before was where I was paid to endorse and wear the clothes, whereas this is something a bit different.
"I am more involved and it is something that I can invest in in my post-playing career.
"I’d love to see young kids growing up and playing in my tennis kit. As you know from my GQ shoot, I don’t really understand the fashion side of things particularly well – I’m not the most fashionable person in the world – but I do like the technical stuff and the performance side of things.
"When I first picked it up, I was thinking that there was no chance I could play in it. It was thick and I was expecting to be roasting wearing it, but that wasn’t the case. It’s really comfortable and doesn’t restrict my game at all."
