Manchester United and adidas unveiled the new home kit for the 2024/25 Premier League season earlier in July.
According to ManUtd.com, the new shirt, made from reflective materials to enhance visibility on the pitch, is inspired by the iconic jersey donned by the Busby Babes in 1952.
‘Designed for those who demand the spotlight,’ as highlighted in the club’s promo campaign, the new home jersey came to light on July 1 and has already made waves in the local community.
Seamlessly blended to create a gradient effect, bold shades of red transition from light to dark red down the main body of the shirt, resulting in a dynamic, ever-shifting colour appearance.
United’s new home kit features an unprecedented flame-like red insert, which runs down the side panel of the shirt and shorts, forging a line that contrasts sharply with the stadium backdrop.
According to the club, it should be particularly noticeable when players are in motion.
That should make United’s shirt stand out among Premier League kits for the 24/25 season, offering a striking blend of innovation and tradition.
Adidas put its stamp on the jersey, with the German sportswear brand’s trademark three stripes decorating the shoulders alongside an enlarged logo on the right chest.
Both details feature in a contrasting white colour, and the same goes for Man United’s new front-of-shirt sponsor Snapdragon after the club moved away from TeamViewer.
While the away kit remains hidden from the public for now, online leaks suggest the new shirt Erik ten Hag’s charges are set to wear on their travels will feature a black background.
In contrast to the initial speculation indicating the Red Devils would turn towards a royal blue base, the latest leaks suggest it will be much darker, with a blue trim down the sides.
Unlike the home kit, the new away jersey will feature a collar, which has become increasingly popular thanks to the running retro theme among Premier League enthusiasts.
