Celebrating the culture that surrounds one of South Africa's biggest club sides, Nike have launched the 2018/19 Kaizer Chiefs home and away kits. An eclectic feel with contemporary tones, it's a release that hits an on point, on and off pitch football party.
For over fifteen years, the club, in conjunction with Nike, have produced jerseys that celebrate the rich heritage and tradition of "Amakhosi". The new home kit features a sharp design and the iconic gold shirt, complemented by bold diagonal black stripes running across the torso, represents traditional spears rising together to create a sense of motion and unity on the field.
Paying tribute to the team’s strong heritage, the away jersey is dominated by bold, regal purple - the club is considered royalty in African football and with strong and unbreakable tones, this powerhouse for the people has welcomed in fresh attire with a suitably powerful photographic delivery.
Commenting on the release, Jessica Motaung, Marketing Director at Kaizer Chiefs explained the launch of this kit, “our long-standing partnership with Nike has produced many distinctive kit designs that have become part of our history, and this year is no different”. “With the world celebrating the centenary year of Tata Madiba’s birth, we are sure that the former statesman would have been proud of this jersey just like his fondness of the Kaizer Chiefs jersey that he wore in 2002.”
Incorporating elements of fan fashion and bringing an off pitch feel to on pitch wears, the Kaizer Chiefs 18/19 kits are a statement for fresh football. A game with rhythm as well as good, expect this kit to be appreciated on a global level.
