The new adidas San Paolo jersey

Copa Libertadores time for the São Paulo Futebol Clube and you cannot present yourself without style. adidas has revealed in the last hours the shirt for the home games of the Brazilian team that will make their debut in the group stage of the Libertadores on Thursday night (Italian time). The team of coach Fernando Diniz is ready for one of the most anticipated events of the year. Dani Alves, Alexandre Pato, Juanfran, the prophet Hernanes are also expected, all called to the task of bringing home a cup that has been missing for 15 years.

A special shirt with which the San Paolo will debut tomorrow evening. The Brazilian club celebrates its first 90 years of history and to celebrate the years since 1930 adidas has chosen to raise the aesthetic level of the club's uniforms. There is certainly the hand of Emperor Hadrian, sales director of adidas Football Brasil and former player of the Tricolor. Speaking of tricolor, in the new design designed by adidas the red, white and black band of the San Paolo remains at the center of the shirt, as per tradition, as well as the unchanged position of the emblem of the Brazilian club. The news concerns the three adidas stripes, no longer present as a separate logo but an integral part of the shirt's design. The stylistic direction of the German brand is very clear and it is not the first time that we have noticed this choice in recent times. Even on the occasion of the celebrative jersey for 120 years of Bayern Munich, the Herzogenaurach company logo seems almost invisible, blending into the white of the shirt. The sublimated printing technique does the rest, making the logo visible but without distorting the stylistic architecture of the product.

Although it does not show overwhelming changes compared to last year's uniform, the San Paolo shirt remains one of the best on the market, even if only for its particularity relating to the position of the emblem. It is not the first time, among other things, that adidas takes care of a celebratory shirt and takes care of one of the strongest clubs in the history of Brazilian football. It had already happened last year, when on the occasion of adidas' 70th birthday, the San Paolo wore a shirt designed ad hoc.

The San Paolo 2020/21 jersey will be available from 11 March on adidas.com
