These are the new Argentina home and away kits manufactured by adidas for 2011/2012, which will be available here.
This new kits will be worn by Argentina throughout the forthcoming Copa América tournament taking place in Argentina itself later this year and also other friendly games between now and then.
The kit is the usual combination of blue and white stripes but is more toned down in the stripe department that it's previous counterpart. The shirt now only contains two wide, white stripes on a background of 'celeste' or light blue being the rough English equivalent. the design of the shirt is in a similar template to that of the Spain shirt revealed a few weeks ago, with a slightly lighter shade of side panelling. The shirt is almost completely white and light blue except for a touch of gold and some black in the logos to break it up.
A main change to this shirt from previous versions is that now the crest is place within a shield on a black background which makes it a lot more eye catching than previous editions. Sticking with the crest, there is also an embossed pattern behind it which looks like laurel wreaths and also the 'Sol de Mayo' (Sun of May) from the Argentine flag. On the back of the shirt there is more detailing of laurel leaves on the gold piping crossed over blue-white-blue bands of the national flag.
The away shirt is a dark shade of blue with spaced out bands in a gradient style across the top of the chest in the colours in the national colours. As with the home a small use of gold is also present in this shirt but comes across more prominently given the dark base colour of the shirt, the gold present in the crest is particularly strong given this.

I am not a Barca fan...but he i a great player, and I hope he isn't getting censoredy or too cool for this.
Why was that censored? all I said was conceited, and why censoredy?
and he has every right to show it off - he is, after all, the World Player of the Year.
Why did this other "other Chivas USA fan" take my name and make a retarded comment like that?
cuz argentina fails
totally agree... I can't imagine that longer short sleeves are more comfortable, so is it to add designs on the sleeve?
Two white stripes per side is not enough usually, and I personally think you are right about this jersey...Now AC Milan's jersey definately needed more stripes
May be wrong but I think the home collar is the same as used on the France shirt before the World Cup, the 2 tone blue one, kind of the same idea as the away kit above has started...The France shirt is in my closet but i am too lazy to confirm just now! Might be wrong though!
What do you want? It's a standard look!
I like it but the home socks should be white!
With a little blue. maybe?
I tend to be more of a "traditionalist", not being a fan of makeovers to unique and very traditional soccer kits, such as Argentina's. Yet, what Adidas has done here, really looks brilliant!
Very well done!
I'm definitely getting the new home jersey...
the away kit ain't too shabby looking either
Motion carried
good choice on model tho xavi is 1 of my favourite players
away kit would b beter orange or sumthin
They would've used Xavi if it was for the new Spanish kit
pay attention in geography next time
All he said was that he prefers Xavi... not that he should have modeled the kit
I'm so freagin' bored with these photo shoots.
it just doesn't feel "Feng Shui".
There aren't Jersey for men?
Home Kit same as every year.
Simple two white stripes, and the collar makes it even better.
Great job, Adidas!
That may be true, but the kit is beautiful nonetheless... Great Job Adidas
