How many football jerseys do you have in your closet? Why do you always wear a jersey?? Well, If you are a die-hard football fan of a particular club or any renowned footballer - you have already tackled these questions!
Football teams usually use two shirts, home and away kits are rather self-explanatory. The idea of a third kit is either for the goalkeeper or the team squad while facing a team with almost alike home and away colors. Football is more fashionable nowadays and numerous clothing brands collaborate with clubs often and even introduce short-term or limited edition kits.
Adidas has brought a fully new phenomenon to the football arena - the fourth kit! Are you checking your wallet already? If yes, then you are not going to regret it as Adidas already introduced some of their glamourous team kits.
In recent years, mostly at the beginning of the 2020-21 season, clubs have revealed fourth kits with the trend. Most of these jerseys have no official role, and might never be worn on a professional pitch, although some associations do allow an unconventional appearance in their tournament.
“𝘈𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘸, 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘥, 𝘴𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘨𝘰 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦,” - by Ingo Turner, design director at Adidas Football. "𝘞𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴/ 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴, 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦.”
“𝘍𝘰𝘰𝘵𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘰 𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘱,” Turner explains, pointing towards some of the work Adidas has already accomplished with Yohji Yamamoto, and lately the range including the blackout away kit.
In the previous season’s FA Cup, Arsenal introduced an all-white kit, supporting raising awareness of knife crime in London.
Whether it’s about new design trends or public statements, fourth kits are starting to designate their own part in the sport. Whatever you might think of them, it’s obvious they’re not fading out yet.
