Blue is also their color and not Russia's which is why they'll want to put their look on things, even if they don't have their logos on it.The ball for the final should be a different look that the other balls used if they follow up with what they've done since 2006. Each tournament game ball will have the name of the teams, date and stadium it is used at. Possible design found from a simple google search?

I hadn't seen it in any of the random World Cup spam I get but I figured it'd happen anyways. adidas needs to get paid too. I'm sure I'll see versions of this floating around mens league games in a month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, even though ads suck, it would be cool if the Benz circle had the same diameter as the German soccer federation logo circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone had shown the memo in a forum earlier. I think it only applies to national teams though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JosiahWVU Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Pretty decent match up in the opening match of the tournament. I like Russia's kit, and Saudi Arabia is, well, a standard Nike kit. Nothing special but a solid match up IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twi Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I love the idea of the Russian socks but unfortunately it’s one of those things that get ruined by the 10 field players wearing them about 10 different ways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To consider this in a vaccum where we are at with our modern kit designs and templates....its pretty uninspiring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that Mexico wearing its change kit against South Korea stems from the sock clash -- since Mexico would've had to change to white socks to avoid a clash with Korea's red, they probably just opted to wear and show off the full change kit. With Sweden and Germany the other two teams in the group (no clashes there), this gives Mexico the opportunity to wear the change kit without it being a random introduction.

The Saudi kit kinda sucks, but I really like that Russian kit. Not sure whether I'd like it more or less with a second blue stripe on the home shirt to match the socks, but I really do like that design.

That is what is banned, sorry for the confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
