F.C. Internazionale and Nike reveal new 17/18 away kit

MILAN

- The new Inter away kit retains the change strip's classic trio of colours - white, blue and black - but presents them with a fresh new look in keeping with Milanese style and using the new Aeroswift technology.

The shirt features a round collar with blue detail. The black swoosh is on the right side of the kit, while the team logo is on the opposite side. Certain areas of the shirt include a geometric pattern which improves the fit, especially when players are on the move.

There is a change in texture in the shoulder and sleeves from back to front. On the front the left shoulder and sleeve become a progressively darker blue colour and the material is thicker on the back. The right side, meanwhile, is grey with a thinner material on the front which fades into black on the back.

The word "Nerazzurri" is printed on the inside of the collar in white in a nod to the club's glorious past.

A blue line runs all the way down the shirt and the white shorts. The line, which expands when players are on the move, guarantees maximum ventilation.

The white shorts, equipped with Nike Grip technology, complete the kit with the word "Inter" and a black swoosh printed on the front, while there is a blue pattern on the back of the calf.

The new away kit goes on sale on 1 July at

SUSTAINABLE INNOVATION

Nike continue to create their kits on the basis of sustainable innovation, guaranteeing unrivalled benefits in terms of performance albeit with a reduced environmental footprint. Every part of the kit - the shirt, shorts and socks - is created with recycled polyester, salvaged from used plastic bottles which are converted into a very thin thread.

NIKE AEROSWIFT TECHNOLOGY

Nike Aeroswift kits, currently the most advanced technology on the market, are 10% lighter and 50% more stretchable compared with previous strips. They use a new high-performance thread which removes sweat from the skin 20% faster than the most recent Nike kits and dry 25% faster. What's more, both the shirt and shorts are created using a new sewing process which combines single and double knit structures to improve breathability, elasticity and wearability.
