Melbourne Victory’s highly anticipated 2013/14 adidas home and away kits have been revealed.
The state-of-the-art designs are the club-s second generation of adidas kit since signing a five year deal with the leading global sports lifestyle brand back in 2011.
adidas- design team worked in close consultation with both players, and Melbourne Victory management, to select colours, necklines and materials in an effort to continually improve the strip and optimise player performance for the new season.
Headlining the changes in 2013/14 is a fresh colour approach for the away kit, with the selection of a sharp blue and white colourway to offer renewed on-pitch energy to the players.
The new home kit features a slimline and contemporary update of the iconic Melbourne Victory chevron, including adidas climacool technology. The updated Chevron was designed taking into account overwhelming feedback from supporters for a shallower ‘V-.
Melbourne Victory’s Archie Thompson said the new kits were some of the best he had seen.
“I think it’s fresh and I love the new blue. I’ve been here since day one and I’ve watched the strip evolve and I’m definitely loving the new one right now,” Thompson said.
Midfielder Leigh Broxham said there was plenty of tradition behind the new kits.
“I’m very passionate about the Victory and the navy blue. It’s got a lot of history – we’ve won two championships in this and I’m really hoping the fans like the navy blue again,” Broxham said.
