As we move one day closer to the Copa America Centenario adidas have unveiled the Argentina home kit for 2016. More specifically the shirt is one that fine tunes a timeless classic keeping it contemporary, casually.
Hitting the pitch for the first time this Thursday when Argentina take on Chile, it sees those famous three stripes shimmy from the sleeves to the flank of the shirt. All about the detail there's an Argentinian flag that runs along the neckline while the black accents that run across the cuffs and collar offer some fresh perspective and add to the underlining cool of this cultured shirt with effortless style.
A shirt that will undoubtedly travel from on to off pitch with seismic measure, it's one you can see at a music festival just as much as you can lining the streets of America when the Copa comes to town. Other smaller details that wash well are the 2 stars that represent those winning World Cup finals and the low relief logo that are home to the initials and date symbolic to the time in which the Argentine Football Association was formed.
Naturally, it's a shirt that is packed with the latest technological innovations from adidas. Dedicated to providing a comfortable finish, the CLIMALITE tech is there to absorb sweat and keep the player dry at all times while CLIMACOOL is there to provide extra ventilation. Topping off the tech is FORMOTION which has been tailored to allow for a dynamic fit at the highest level.
An instant classic. You can don one here.
