After releasing the latest Athletic Bilbao jersey last week, New Balance has debuted another kit from its roster of clubs. The new FC Porto kit is a nod to the tradition of the club, with those classic blue and white stripes subtly updated for the new season.
The club’s colours were picked in 1909, in honour of the then-Portuguese flag, and have become one of Europe’s iconic kit designs in the 113 years since then. The only twist on the classic this year is the use of jacquard structures along the stripes. As well as giving the design an understated pattern, this technique also allows for extra ventilation. The home kit, complete with matching shorts and socks, will be worn alongside a bright yellow goalkeeper’s jersey.
Unveiling the kit, FC Porto captain Pepe paid tribute to the “super intense and passionate” fans of the club, saying, “There is always a great expectation about the new jersey. We know how important it is for the fans to see us honour our colours and our traditions.”
