This is the new Real Madrid home kit for the 08/09 season. Leaked pictures of the home and away adidas shirts are on the web for a while now, But Real Madrid will unveil next season's kit during their title celebration ceremony at the Santiago Bernabéu on 18 May.
The new home kit includes a collared shirt with black trim, while the away shirt is a cobalt blue with white trim. Both include adidas' revolutionary ClimaCool® with flow mapping technology which enhances player performance by keeping the body at optimal temperature.
The kit has been anatomically designed in order to optimize the fit and comfort of each player and includes 3-D engineered patterns allowing ultimate player performance through increased ventilation and moisture management.
I just wish I could see better pics of that Casillas kit though, cuz I'm still unsure about that one...after all, if it looks like the national teams GK kit, it's ugly as hell...
I have always thought that Real should be trimmed in purple which I believe is a Royal (Real) colour. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Again an Adidas shirt with a Club Badge on it instead of a Club Shirt made by Adidas, they did a plain white with a crest a few years back which they will never improve on.
Ditto Liverpool, Chelsea etc. Nike have them beat every time.
ajax's home shirts dont have the three stripes.....why are they like the ONLY team that doesnt have them?? I think a lot of creativity is interrupted due to teams havin to keep the stripes on the shirt.
This looks like a polo shirt, actually quite boring. And with the black stripes it could as well be Rosenborg or Tottenham. The purple used to be the Real colour but a few years ago they began to use black which is ridicolous.
Didn't they have the same jersey in 05/06?
The last one Zidane wore before he retired.
The only difference is the 3/4 lines instead of the lines going down the sleeve and the black line at the end of the colar.
I highly doubt they will sell a lot of those jeresys just for that fact.
But over all not bad
The ajax kit is one of the nicest i've ever seen. It's is a sort of a combination between the last season shirt and the Barcelona fluor colors. VERY NICE!
Brilliant shirt, just how real wanted it, not with all that purple stuff on it but simple. They have brang it back the days of the champions league winning team. GREAT
Awesome kit! I was getting tired of all the modern looking kits. Some things need to stay traditional. It's like if the Yanks changed their trademark pinstrips, or the Lakers lost the yellow uniforms. Somethings are just classic. Hala Madrid!
i love it....... thats the sign that the power of classic madrid is back... this year they will conquer spain for the 3rd time again & will get back their domination of the europe championship.......
I think its a boring shirt. I agree that the 3/4 adidas stripes look ugly, they should go all the way down or not be there at all. I would have liked to see the new home kit just like the UCL Black Jersey from this past 07/08 season but White with Purple accents, ala Liverpool Third kit this year with White with Red accent. Purple is the Royal Color which is Real Madrid's. Real Madrid truly means Royal Madrid in spanish. I think the reason for this kit being black accent is to reproduce the same look of the last European Cup triumph Real Madrid had. But still lamE. :?
its simple but I think that a company like ADIDAS can do better than this t-shirt.
I think that they can represent a contest in which the fans can comptete in order to design the best kit and finally Adidas can choose and reward the designer.
Nice, but I think they could have kept the stripes on the sleeves and shorts white and have the black on the socks match that of the collar in my opinion.
I know some people are complaining bc the stripes are in purple but black also is a color thats been identified with Real lately and it works well on this kit, I really like it, I may get it with Van Nistelrooy on the back
I liked the design until I got my hands on the kit in a shop, the material feels thick and coarse, like you would expect a fake knock-off too! 'Real' let down!... whey!
