Earlier on today we showed you Swansea City’s latest home and away kits. They’re lovely. One demonstrates excellence through simplicity and another utilises colour to create a wonderful away kit. While Wales aren’t currently competing in the World Cup, we know that if they were, they’d be singing louder than anyone, with more friendly passion, and loving every minute of it. Perhaps the qualification process is to be blamed – it certainly isn’t blameless, but for now, Cardiff City fans, for example, will have to turn their attention to the 2018/19 season.
While English fans nervously sit through the Belgium game tomorrow evening, the Cardiff fans will be glued to the transfer news. They’re in the Premier League and they want to stay there.
At one point last season, it looked like both Swansea and Cardiff would share a league. It was going to be interesting. Now that they’ve switched places, those Swansea fans that heckled their Cardiff neighbours will be chowing down on some humble pie.
To ensure that their Premier League season kicks off in the strongest fashion, the club have teamed up with Adidas to create a simple, effective kit. We at UK Soccer Shop, as you know, love a simple kit, if it works. This one works exceptionally well.
The kit top is blue with several slightly darker stripes running horizontally across the chest. These stripes act as a positive design decision whilst also ensuring that the club’s crest, sponsor, and logo aren’t lost.
Adidas’ trademark stripes feature in white across the shoulders and up to the neckline. The sleeves have a slight white tapering at the bottom to complete the look.
On the nape of the jersey is a blue bird, matching the club’s illustrious nickname.
It really is a kit worthy of the Premier league. One that oozes style through simplicity.
