You Have Hopefully Seen Their Home Kit. Here’s Hong Kong’s Away One.
The above statement relies on you having seen the territory’s home kit. If you haven’t here’s a link. Furthermore, if you haven’t just clicked that link, here’s the information that you need to know about Hong Kong, taken from the home kit article:
“Hong Kong, according to Wikipedia is an autonomous territory and former English colony. The skyline is riddled with skyscrapers and it’s a famous shopping destination, especially for those in the market for tailoring. The most common question with regards to the territory, on Google is, ‘is Hong Kong a country? Apparently, its proper name is Hong Kong, Special Administrative Region, China. Their flag is a white, five-petalled orchid tree flower on a red background.”
While the South China Morning Post reported that the team had jumped up to 142nd place in 2017, Fifa’s official rankings don’t place the team anywhere. Nevertheless, they’re still a competitive team and an important one in our eyes. As we always say, a club is still important, no matter the size, if they still have someone who really believes in them. Hong Kong certainly has supporters, so let’s take a look at the kit.
The jersey itself is white. It features slightly more dulled white lines running horizontally across the front. The sleeves of the kit are a filled, bright white which gives the kit a perfect contrast and certainly keeps the design simple. Breathable technology is hugely important for any sporting kit and Nike has certainly utilised its own here. It allows Hong Kong’s players to feel at their coolest, even under the most intense pressure.
White is the perfect colour to allow the club’s crest to fully stand out. Furthermore, Nike’s iconic Swoosh is red, which is also highlighted positively on this almost blank canvas.
