adidas presented 4 special jerseys in collaboration with EA Sports
From videogames to the real life: the new kits of Juventus, Manchester United, Real Madrid e Bayern Munich
November 29th, 2018
A collaboration between adidas Football and Electronic Arts (EA), the company that develops the most famous video games in the world, could not be trivial. Last year the "Digital 4th Kits" collection was designed as a hypothetical fourth kit of the four major clubs sponsored by the German brand, Juventus, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Bayern Monaco. However, the set of kits were exclusive to FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT), game mode of the videogame FIFA. Now EA Sports and adidas have decided to go out from the digital, with a project inspired by the craziest of 1990s designs and based on the Adidas EQT template, with the adidas logo printed on both the V-neck and on the left sleeve, while the logo EA is only present on a label at the bottom on the right side. They will again not feature in official games by the respective clubs, though. But will be marketed in limited editions and obviously available on FIFA19.

Introducing the all new limited-edition @FCBayern, @juventusfc, @ManUtd and @realmadrid @EA SPORTS Jerseys, available in game and in store now: https://t.co/4HAIVfvhBY. pic.twitter.com/WblmNWLpsL
Real Madrid
The jersey is a tribute to the nickname of the Spanish team, 'Los Galacticos', and indeed the all-over print represents a galaxy of white stars on a blue space sky; the emblem of Real is placed on the chest in the left, while the Fly Emirates sponsor occupies the center of the shirt. The sober and elegant design of the uniforms of Real Madrid has remained intact, as well as the use of blue, OG colors of the club. The jersey is now available, at a price of € 82.
Bayern Monaco
Another space motif for the Bavarians, this time with warmer colors, and ax explosion that starts from the emblem of the German team, placed at the center of the jersey, in black as well as the collar and the sponsor. The fans probably will not be happy to see this shirt, because they don't respect the colors of the club, but that pixel-effect it's good. Available on the club website for € 89.
Juventus
Cristiano Ronaldo's team is original and really beautiful, with an all-over graphic that fades into pink tones for an iridescent PVC effect, that contrasts with the black collar. It's a very interesting choice because it remands to the Juventus colors. Also, in this case, the logo is in the middle of the chest. On sale from 15 today, price 89 €.
Manchester United
Finally, here is the animal version of Manchester United, leopard pattern in shades of yellow and black, with the white logo in the center. Aggressive and crazy, after all, like the exuberant United's players. It will not be worn in the field, and it's a positive news, available on the online store, price? 82 €.
