Becoming the first team outside Moscow to claim the league title five times, FC Zenit Saint Petersberg honor a club rich in traditions with their new home and away kits made by Nike in aristocratic style.
Could be an early contender for the best 15/16 kits, these home and away shirts made by Nike are pretty special - In commemorating the club's 90th anniversary year, the new light blue home jersey features an inner pride badge with the number 90 lining the back of the neck. Additional visual elements include a unique, new graphic representing the waves of the Neva River, within which Petrovsky Island, home to Zenit’s stadium, sits. Visually, these graphic elements offer a stunning effect, both shirts - quite the peach.
Joining the ranks of Russian football royalty, it's only right they use a regal backdrop to help launch the 15/16 home shirt. Much as they did when releasing a celebratory shirt at the end of last season this photo shoot is not just highly tasteful but damn right brilliant. The club’s “Reign Supreme” campaign, which cast the Zenit players as 19th-century Russian aristocrats see's the team plot their way to victory with the 15/16 season at the forefront of said objectives.
While this new kit acts as a proud symbol of the club, it has also been designed to help players excel by providing the very latest in performance innovation, fabric technology, moisture management and environmental sustainability. Having made their way into the history books once more the club have also added a commemorative star above the crest of the new shirts. Smart, all round.
