Atletico Madrid are hooked up with a strong design on their 2018/19 away kit as Nike launch an expressive two-tone feel for the upcoming camping. Sharp, modern, and satisfyingly blue.
Blue is a colour long associated with Atlético de Madrid. It has been for 115 years. Before the now famous red and white stripes that adorn the club's home shirts were adopted, blue was already a starring colour in the club’s kits and it has regularly featured on away kits throughout the years. Flashes of orange, used for head-to-toe detailing like crests, numbers and swooshes, add an extra shot of energy to the strip.
The splash of vivd blue is back for the 2018/19 season as Atletico hit the road an skies in style. That same blue from the shirt is carried onto the shorts with a graphic that complements the Aeroswift print on the shoulders of the jersey. Here's how Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director, see it: “Atlético moved to a new stadium last year, continue to challenge for major honors each and every season and they have a world class roster of players. It was only right that we produced a kit which captures all of this positive energy.” It's blue. And nice. Good stuff.
