Adidas presented the new home jersey of the Argentina National Team
Adidas presents the new shirt of the Argentine National Team that will be used in the World Cup in Qatar and in the Copa América Femenina where the premiere will be made tomorrow against Brazil in Colombia. The jacket represents the passion of the fans for soccer in the country since it brings together families and friends to see the "Albiceleste" from home or on the field with the motto "The feeling of a country".
The design of the shirt is based on the essence, the DNA and the national identity of a country that abandons fanaticism for its club and unites everyone to support the national team. With its classic light blue and white colors, it makes references to the Argentine flag on its back and incorporates the Sun of May, which is a national emblem, on the back of the neck. It's made from 100% recycled materials and features "HEAT READY" technology to keep players cool and dry on the pitch.
Pablo Lamo, general manager of the German brand in Argentina, said: “Argentina is synonymous with soccer. This is the homeland of many of the sport's biggest stars internationally, and Argentina's relationship with soccer is much deeper and more intimate compared to fans from other countries. Football is a unifying sport that is part of the country's identity. The sun on the flag symbolizes glory, something that, in football terms, the national team has already achieved in the 1978 and 1986 World Cups”.
In addition, he added: “This shirt, which is made in the country, reflects the essence of what it means to be Argentine. Throughout the history of football, the Albiceleste has become synonymous with the highest levels of play and skill. With the upcoming start of the FIFA World Cup, we wanted to return to this winning design for both players and fans to wear and celebrate, while representing the sentiment of a country on the world's biggest sporting stage."
