Serie A giants, Inter Milan, has a new Nike home kit for 2016/17. Images of the shirt have leaked online ahead of the official release.
Inter Milan 2016-17 Home Kit
This is the Inter Milan home kit for the 2016-17 season.
The blue and black stripes of Inter Milan are an iconic football shirt. Known throughout the world, it’s impossible to image the Nerazzurri wearing any other combination. And Nike haven’t tried to!
Evenly spaced, the stripes traverse the body of the shirt. There is a circular pattern across the front and back of the shirt, encompassing both colours to accentuate the difference between the blue and black.
The shoulder panels and sleeves are both black to add a modern twist to the design.
With black shorts, it’s very much a traditional Inter Milan kit, faithful to the past but with a little facelift.
Which is where it may all be going a bit askew. Rumour has it that the yellow trim of the Nike Swoosh and the Pirelli logo on the front are to be accompanied by similarly coloured trim on the shorts. So far, so good.
The socks? The rumour mill says they will be…yellow! A bright, luminous yellow. Yeah; us too.
It may look spectacular and be nowhere near as bad as it sounds. These things often are when it comes to football kits but even though it’s Nike’s current fad to have strongly contrasting socks, some things need to be left as they are. We shall see when the official kit is launched!
