Project Insights: The Green Bay Packers Lambeau Field Locker Room

The Green Bay Packers unveil Lambeau Field’s updated locker room with lockers by Hollman

Hollman is proud to highlight the newly completed Green Bay Packers locker room, a next-generation space that celebrates legacy, fosters unity, and meets the performance needs of elite athletes.

This installation was more than just a locker room upgrade. It was an opportunity to reinforce tradition, enhance day-to-day functionality, and create a centerpiece for both team and community pride.

The Packers envisioned a space as iconic and hardworking as the franchise itself — one that honored their storied tradition while offering the function and flexibility required by today’s NFL standards.

A key design priority was developing a dual-purpose locker that seamlessly serves both daily practice and game day needs. The challenge was to blend functionality with presentation, ensuring each locker offered the durability and organization required for everyday use while also delivering a polished, high-impact look suitable for game day and facility tours.

Equally important to the functionality of the space was ensuring that the locker room’s aesthetic aligned with the architectural language of the larger facility. Drawing direct inspiration from the iconic chrome Lombardi Trophy, the design incorporates subtle chrome accents that echo this central symbol of pride. From custom nameplates to carefully selected veneers, every detail was curated to create a tradition-rich environment that feels intentional and unified. By blending modern man-made materials with high-end natural finishes, the space strikes a balance between honoring the Packers’ deep-rooted legacy and celebrating their forward-looking vision for excellence.

The room’s radiused layout presented a unique design challenge, demanding exacting precision to ensure each locker aligned seamlessly along the curved architecture. This meticulous planning paid off in a space that feels both expansive and intentional. The wide, open floor plan was purposefully designed to encourage gathering, connection, and team camaraderie, creating an environment where players naturally come together. It’s a space that supports not just performance, but also the culture and unity that define the Green Bay Packers.

Additional Project Features:

  • 100 Player lockers and 123 staff lockers
  • White solid surface accents and powder-coated black metal framing
  • Shoulder pad storage
  • Dedicated boot drying system
  • Dedicated glove organization
  • Fully integrated LED lighting
  • Ojmar OCS Pro electronic lock
  • Custom LED display screens above each locker

Packers Wire: Packers unveil updated locker room in Lambeau Field ahead of training camp

July 22, 2025 /PackersWire/ — The Green Bay Packers unveiled a fully updated locker room for players inside Lambeau Field ahead of the start of training camp on Tuesday. All veteran players are reporting to camp on Tuesday ahead of Wednesday’s opening practice, so Matt LaFleur’s team is in for a treat upon reporting back to Green Bay.

The new locker room keeps the iconic “G” in the middle but features updated lockers and visuals, new bathrooms and lighting and added seating areas for players.

While the previous locker room was fine by NFL standards, an update was necessary and sought after by players. In the NFLPA’s grading of teams, the Packers received a B- grade for the locker room, ranking 12th in the NFL. Overall, the locker room was the most common answer from players in terms of needed upgrades, and the Packers listened.

A locker room is not only an important space for players but also a selling point for the team when courting free agents and other players. The Packers now have a modernized locker room inside their iconic stadium.

The Packers are opening a highly anticipated 2025 season in style.

        PR Newswire: Los Angeles Rams and Hollman Lockers Team Up to Refurbish Locker Rooms at Lahainaluna High School

        Los Angeles Rams and Hollman Lockers Team Up to Refurbish Locker Rooms at Lahainaluna High School in Lahaina, HI

        DALLAS, June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Los Angeles Rams in collaboration with Hollman Lockers and design firm Forty Nine Degrees have announced an initiative to support the Maui community by building new locker rooms for Lahainaluna High School in Lahaina, Maui.

        During the wildfire that devastated Maui in 2023, over 450 student-athletes and coaches’ homes were destroyed and many lost loved ones – yet the football team rallied together, serving as a beacon of hope and resilience for the community. In recognition of that resilience, the NFL previously honored Lahainaluna’s players and coaches as honorary coin toss captains at Super Bowl LVIII, with quarterback Marcus Mariota narrating a tribute to their strength and unity. The team’s journey was later chronicled in a documentary by NFL Films.

        Building on that spirit of resilience, the Los Angeles Rams have partnered with Hollman Lockers and Forty Nine Degrees to design professional-grade lockers and fully renovate the boys’ and girls’ locker rooms at Lahainaluna High School.

        “As part of our partnership to launch Mauicamp with the Hawai’i Tourism Authority, we’re thrilled to support Lahainaluna High School and its student-athletes who have been such an inspiration to their community,” said Molly Higgins, Rams Executive Vice President of Community Impact and Engagement. “This has been a passion project of our Rams’ partnership and creative teams who have worked alongside our partners in conjunction with coaches, student-athletes, and the broader Lahaina community to bring this vision to life.”

        The redesign will feature custom-built lockers, integrated seating and storage, inspirational graphics, and dedication areas that honor Lahaina’s identity and strength. The design concept for the new locker rooms draws on Lahainaluna’s deep-rooted traditions, featuring phrases like ‘We are one,’ similar to a Rams motto ‘We Then Me’, ‘I Mua Lahainaluna’, and ‘Remember who we are and who we represent.’

        “We’re honored to bring the same state-of-the-art lockers that we build for collegiate and professional sports teams to Lahainaluna High School,” said Travis Hollman, CEO of Hollman Lockers. “After everything they’ve been through, these student athletes deserve the best, and we’re proud to donate the lockers to this worthy community.”

        The Rams hosted a community celebration on June 17 following team activities at Mauicamp to unveil the locker room designs and celebrate the collaboration. The locker rooms are expected to be completed at the end of July 2025 in anticipation of the new school year.

        “Our players have faced unimaginable challenges, and this support from the Rams, Hollman Lockers, and Forty Nine degrees will have a meaningful impact on the school and the entire island of Maui,” said Dean Rickard, Co-Head Coach of Lahainaluna High School Football. “The lockers mean more than just a place to gear up – they represent a fresh start and a symbol of the community’s resilience. We are grateful for the support and excited about the journey ahead.”

        “Mahalo to the LA Rams, Hollman Lockers, and Forty Nine Degrees for making this possible,” said Caroline Anderson, Interim President & CEO for the Hawai’i Tourism Authority. “We are excited that Lahainaluna High School’s student-athletes will receive new locker rooms. This highlights the positive impact collaboration can have, with not only revitalizing the school’s facilities but also serving as an inspiration for the students to strive for success.”
