NivelCrack and PUMA create a special kit for the Pohang Steelers
"The hotter the fire, the stronger the steel"
October 25th, 2024
The Pohang Steelers are releasing a special kit and collection created in collaboration with NivelCrack and PUMA. The Pohang Steelers are the oldest professional football club in South Korea, founded and owned by POSCO, a steel manufacturer based in Pohang. The collection draws inspiration from the club's iconic slogan, "The hotter the fire, the stronger the steel." Although the slogan doesn’t appear directly on the T-shirts, tracksuits, or training equipment, the design reflects the club's identity and heritage. The jersey features an elegant color scheme, with a steel-inspired gray gradient combined with the club's traditional red and black colors. Silver logos evoke a metallic texture, while a NivelCrack label on the lower part adds a special detail to the shirt. On November 2, the Pohang Steelers will take the field for their K League match against FC Seoul, wearing the tracksuit pre-match and the jersey for the ninety minutes.
We’re now accustomed to the incredible projects by the Korean studio; even nss sports collaborated with NivelCrack this past summer to create a football jersey. Called CiaoItalia, this jersey is a new fusion of fashion and football inspired by the kit worn by the Italian National Team during the 2002 World Cup.
