Ispiration: Turin FC's jersey
Where to buy: The shirt is already on sale on the South-American club online store.
During the 2019/2020 season River Plate will wear four jerseys: after having already presented the third one, inspired by the Estadio Monumental, now it's time to take a look at the fourth kit. The Argentine club has decided to pay tribute to Turin FC, as had already happened during the long twinning that binds the two teams after the Superga disaster of 70 years ago: the shirt, therefore, is of garnet color and is based on a particular adidas template, Stripes 19, which has a brown base and slightly darker vertical stripes. The kit is completed with garnet shorts.
