L'OM and adidas are proud to present the shirt which will be worn by the players during this season's UEFA Champions League.
It is vogue. It's flashy. It revisits the color that caused a sensation in the 2007/08 season. Orange, like the inside of the supporters bombers displayed by Olympians as a sign of rejection of intolerance in the 80s, has since spread to the virages of the Velodrome, and today it symbolises the solidarity and social diversity integral to l'OM. The Olympians will take these values to the European stage and this third addition to the shirt range, after the traditional "home" white "away" blue, is for matches in the UEFA Champions League.
From a technical point of view, this shirt is available in 100% TECHFIT™ Powerweb (muscle compression) for the players, and a replica version for all fans. The latter carries the same design and focus on performance, with ClimaCool® technology that optimizes the regulation of persperation.
The European shirt is already available exclusively in the online store (link) and in all OM boutiques and official adidas stores at a price of €79 (Mens) and €64 (Junior & Womens). It will be also available elsewhere from 1st August 2011.
Thanks to Marseille Fan

Flashback to the 90's goalkeeper kits..
New to the Internet, yeah?
i like your style
i thought at first i'd been a bit harsh but err no........this is probably the worst kit i've ever seen
nowt against OM their 1990 kit one of the best ever
go away you weirdo?
allez l' OM...
its.. eh... interesting..
Pink for season 12/13 ?
OM and adidas are dominating just year after year after year;... and yet again in 2011.
Superb!
It is a true problem with many French football clubs in European competitions, they prefer making money with those shirts than showing their colors all around Europe...
I can't imagine clubs like Manchester United, Real Madrid, FC Porto or AC Milan playing home games with shirts showing anything except historical colors...
now it seems this fruity orange number will be their kit of choice in Europe - as Mathieu says you wouldn't get this with most of the big clubs, although I do recall Bayern wearing a Grey Kit with red sleeves and a Black Kit with a red hoop in the past seemingly as their first choice kit but not sure if this was just in europe or if they also wore them domestically during those seasons
i love it .. !!
Isn't orange the colours of their nasty ultras? The quirky bird is nice though. A bit Joe le Taxi
Which is just about the only kind thing I can find to say about this shirt.
The Jersey is... different.
its different though...so cant complain there
What are your thoughts?
King Warrior reckons you must have been smoking pot when u came out with a statement like that!!!!!!! You're a wank stain.
I have a real issue with OM wearing this as a home kit, though. Mathieu_W is spot on, your colours are your colours - by all means, play with your away/third strip, but your home strip is what your fans identify with. I'm surprised UEFA allows it.
Post of the season.
Totally agree dude.
While the kit maybe original its not for me but totally agree with the "colours" point
maybe OM fans can correct me but ive never associated them with "lovely Fijian sunset glow orange"? White, sky, navy, black allright - just wondering like
Yes, they set out to upset you specifically.
football club
1st it's just ugly (to me).
2nd, the biggest problem IMO, the fact that most of french club playing Champions League are using a dedicated third shirt, with colors THAT AREN'T MATCHING CLUB COLORS at all!
When you play the biggest european tournament, you should be wearing proudly your colors! Not playing with a pink shirt when your colors are white, red & blue (Lyon), a black or an orange shirt when your colors are white & sky blue (Marseille) or a claret shirt when your colors are dark blue (Bordeaux)...
How lucky we are to have such clever guy in rhis topic! Thanx man, there's definitly blue sky in this shirt. You opened my eyes. Thx again!
You should open your eyes further, Cruyff already covered this point above.
yet, strangely, I don't hate it.
She's probably a different size - or that is the female version.
Shame for us ! adidas have no respect for our history and our colors !!!
Which is really a stark contrast to how sensible and defensive the French clubs tend to be. One would think that Marseille would try to field a team with a bit more offensive punch, to match their dynamic kits.
Anyway, they wore this kit. It's very "distinctive" but looks more red than orange.
Massilia " Whore winemakers " Is that me or Marseille ??
I think you shouldn't take it personnaly, even though Massilia's message is irrelevant.
Thanks for that frenchy.
It's the ugliest kit I ever seen !
It's hard to do more ugly.
