AC Milan Unveils adidas Away Kit‏

AC Milan and adidas today unveiled the club’s away kit and special edition logo for the 2014-15 season.  AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi and players – including Mattia De Sciglio and Jérémy Ménez –  revealed the new jersey to fans at the adidas Sport Performance Store in SoHo. The Rossoneri will debut the kit on-field tomorrow, July 24 at BMO Field in Toronto when the team takes on Olympiacos in the Guinness International Champions Cup.

The white away jersey with horizontal stripes features traditional red and black details on the round collar, sleeves and on the bottom hems. The colors of the Italian flag are embedded on the back. A new logo celebrates Casa Milan, the club’s new headquarters. The white shorts with red stripes feature the official AC Milan logo.

The 2014-15 AC Milan home, away, and third kits feature lightweight adizero technology that helps increase breathability, freedom of movement and comfort.

The red and black striped home jersey features St. George’s Cross, the emblem of the City of Milan, to celebrate the club’s long tradition. The Cross was featured on the club’s first kit and was used until the 1940s.

The official AC Milan logo is featured on the third kit, which comes in green and yellow as a tribute to Brazil, the host nation of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.  Player names and numbers on each of the new kits are written in Milay type, the club’s new official font.

The jersey is available at adidas.com.  For more information, go to facebook.com/adidassoccer or follow them on Twitter via @adidasSoccer.
