Flamengo and adidas launch new uniform that exalts the Red-Black Nation
The Mantle delivers a special design that immortalizes the passion of the fans in the stands of Brazil with the waving of the flags in the packed stadium.
By Flamengo and adidas - inFlamengo and adidas today unveiled the new home kit for the 2022 season, traditionally red and black, featuring horizontal stripes with a visual effect reminiscent of the flags waving in stadiums.
Inspired by the celebration and the excitement of the fans in the stands at Maracanã, the new jersey features a black crewneck, which colors the shoulders and sleeves, while red is highlighted by the three stripes that run down the shoulders and define the cuffs. A special badge on the lower right features a flag with the words "The Greatest Passion in the World," further reinforcing the importance of the Nação Rubro-Negra, with its more than 42 million fans, to the club's history and achievements.
"In recent years, we've sought to incorporate Flamengo's greatest pillars into our official jerseys—our crest, our anthem, the '81 triumph, among others. They served as visual inspiration for jerseys that were hugely successful. Now, in 2022, the inspiration was the strength, movement, and spectacular appearance of our fans. They're what makes Flamengo the greatest passion in the world. The result is truly beautiful. I have no doubt it will be another jersey the fans will love," comments Gustavo Oliveira, the club's vice president of Communications and Marketing.
Another new addition to the launch is that the jersey will be available in two versions: Authentic, which will be worn by players and features HEAT.RDY technology, which helps maximize airflow, keeping athletes cool while moving; and Fan, with AEROREADY technology, which controls moisture and keeps the body dry for fans' comfort. The uniform is completed with white shorts and red-and-black socks.
The new Manto is available from today, February 18th, at adidas.com.br/flamengo, loja.flamengo.com.br, adidas physical stores and official club stores, in the Authentic version for R$399,99, Replic for R$299,99 and children's version for R$249,99.
