Ahead of UEFA Euro 2024, adidas today has showcased the latest series of technical performance kits for seven of its biggest federations. Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Scotland, Spain, and Wales receive reimagined home and away designs – uniting fans and players via celebrations of both traditional and modern identity, as teams compete for the coveted Henri Delaunay Cup.
The Wales home kit boasts a pretty simple, tried-and-tested design. There is a blood red colour scheme, described as ‘better scarlet’, for the top and shorts, with ‘pre-loved brown’ socks. There is also a white option for the shorts.
The top has three green adidas strips down each of the shoulders, with a ribbed neckline and raglan-cut sleeves. There is also some green and white piping down the side of the shirt which runs into the shorts.
The away strip is a more striking bright yellow, which is being categorised as ‘pearl citrine’. The roundneck top has a patterned side panel with jagged red and green stripes and also has the green adidas strips down the shoulder.
Sam Handy, VP of Product and Design at adidas said:
‘The national shirt is the visual symbol that binds a nation together, as its team looks to deliver moments for fans that will last a lifetime.
“With this, the shirt represents so much more than sport – it represents unity, it represents a passion that connects us, and it represents an identity that is celebrated at its highest during an international tournament.
“We bind this emotion and energy by nodding to the intrinsic DNA of each federation, topped with bold new looks, which fans can wear proudly, both in the stands and on the streets this summer”.
