The Top 10 of the 2018/19 best training shirts Not always the best gems are match shirts!
Fashion football, just two words, a huge trend that mixes elements from both worlds. A term that we have heard many times over the last few years, but which has in reality always existed. However, it's often almost taken lightly. There is the "fault" to consider only and exclusively the game jerseys, while who has never thought about those of training? Worn only for a few minutes, sell definitely less, they have always been unimportant for the supporters' eyes, but recently the big international producers have been able to create authentic masterpieces, as in the case of South Korea pre-match jersey and above all Nigeria's one on the occasion of the last World Cup. In the wake of these two Nationals, Nike and other top brands have produced pre-match and training jerseys that have nothing to envy to the shirts that the players wear during usually the games: colorful and informal, with absolutely unusual and never banal patterns, have become very popular items for fans all over the world. So we made the Top 10 for you: after seeing them all, you can no longer complain about the fact that Nike produces always the same jerseys...
# 10 Celtic Glasgow, Training - New Balance
info: 48 €
Those of New Balance know how to do their work all right, and this year they have already made themselves known for a great shirt: the black and yellow one of the Celtic Glasgow. The complete line could not but also provide a workout shirt quite bizarre, electric: it seems that touching it you can take the shock...
# 9 Paris Saint Germain, Pre-Match - Nike
info: only kids sizes
As you already know, this year the Parisian team will wear a double brand: in fact, Nike has been joined by Jordan, but only for the European games. What we want to dwell on, however, is designed by Matthew Wolff and is available in two different colors: navy blue and black. In both cases the shirt is literally full by the little lilies pattern, so as to resemble a wallpaper of the early '900.
# 8 Tottenham, Pre-match - Nike
info: 48 £
Compared to the training shirt that has nothing particularly distinctive, the pre-match jersey worn by Kane & Co is one of the goodies of this season, in line with the footprint given by Nike this year, especially with third shirts. The theme used for the Spurs is different from that adopted for many other teams sponsored by Swoosh and is based on a network of lines that cover only the top of the shirt, perhaps not to tire the eyes too much. Would you go out dressing this? We absolutely do.
# 7 Manchester City, Pre-Match - Nike
info: currently is not available, try on Amazon
Manchester City is not new to experiments involving pre-match jerseys, for example that on the occasion of the English title won last April they decided to create a limited edition shirt to celebrate the winning of the Premier League. This season, however, here is another absurd uniform, which combines together green, blue and black in an intriguing complex of horizontal lines of medium width. For the creation of this shirt Nike has drawn from the archives of the club, digging until 1999, the year in which the City wore a shirt with shades of color very similar to these, just to obtain a final product that, needless to say, deserves the everyone's attention on a par with a real game uniform. P.S.: the shirt retains the colors of the seasonal away jersey, also a tribute to the uniform of '99.
# 6 Colombia, Pre-Match - adidas
info: it's on sale and costs only $ 25
Similar to many other national adidas pre-match jerseys, the Colombian one it's different from the the 'colleagues' by presenting an eclectic purple that blends with blue in a plane of squares and rhombuses generated by narrow horizontal lines. The glance is very strong and expresses at best the exuberance of Cafeteros, while keeping the distances from traditional colors: the typical yellow of the South American national is only on the three stripes of the sleeves and on the logo of the German brand.
