Real Madrid, Arsenal & Man United Get adicolor collections from adidas

Building off the success of the recent LFSTLR ranges, adidas have released new retro adicolor ranges for Real Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester United.

Tapping into the resurgence of the Trefoil in the performance arena, adidas have been complementing the return of the Originals logo on playing jerseys with LFSTLR collections for both club and international teams over the last 12 months. Now, as a follow on from those, the German brand has revealed adicolor ranges of 70s and 80s-inspired tracksuits and t-shirts for Real Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester United, giving a fresh twist on each club’s retro colourways.

Designed with a slim fit in premium pique material, each track top features engineered Three Stripes tape, a ribbed collar and cuffs, convenient zipped side pockets, and flock-printed trefoil and club crest on the chest. The pique track pants are tailored for a slim fit and include zipped side pockets and iconic Three Stripes tape down each leg, blending functionality with classic style. Each collection is completed with a slim-fitted crew neck tee with short sleeves, featuring engineered Three Stripes tape along with flock-printed crest and Trefoil branding on the chest.

REAL MADRID

Resplendent in a regal cream and lilac, with the 80s-style lettering of ‘Real Madrid’ providing a further nod to the past. The collection is tied to the contemporary era through the use of a bold, simplified take on the current club crest.

ARSENAL

The Arsenal adicolor collection oozes retro class in red and blue and features the classic crest that appeared on the club’s jerseys between 1949-1994. The lettering used for the club’s name on the back of the tee and jacket is the same vintage font from the old club badge.

MANCHESTER UNITED

The adicolor Manchester United collection takes its colour inspiration from the iconic red and black kits of the 80s and 90s. The club crest is the one last seen on United’s matchday jerseys in 1998, while the 80s-era lettering on the back of the track top completes the vintage look.
