Nike continue to roll out their 2014/15 kits for their associated clubs by unveiling the new home and away strips for Ligue 1 outfit Lille.
Lille will look to spoil the billionaires party next season by breaking into the top two of Ligue 1. Lille finished just behind mega-rich Monaco and PSG last season and they'll hit the ground running next month wearing a new Nike home and away shirts inspired by the club’s illustrious past and reflective of their bright future in the French League.
To honor the club's trophy-laden Glorious Decade in the 40's and 50's Lille’s new home kit is inspired by the designs worn by teams during that era, featuring bold chevron patterns on the chest. The new home shirt features a bright red triangle around the neck and upper chest, a tonal red chevron across the middle of the chest, while the bottom of the shirt cascades into a darker red. The away kit boldly features the yellow and black of the Flanders flag as a symbol of regional pride for the French Flanders area of northern France next to the Belgian border. A vibrant yellow body boasts a stylish black-ribbed polo neck collar with a placket featuring a single black button, and high black cuffs on the sleeves.
