Juventus Kit 2011-2012

The new Juventus home kit is similar to last years in the black and white stripes sense, but there are some small detail differences. The new kits have fades  on the edges of the black stripes, and the polo shirt collar of last year was replaced with a white vneck. These new kit features nike dri-fit technology, and has Juventus written in gold on the back of the collar. The shorts are white, and the socks are white with 2 black bands on them. Below is Claudio Marchiso modeling the new home kit.


The new away kit however, is the polar opposite of the home one. While the home kit retains its traditional, not to flashy black and white theme, the away kit is one of the flashiest I have seen in a while. It features an all pink backdrop with a black collar and a giant black star design spanning the whole shirt.  The shorts are all black, with black socks featuring a pink Nike swoosh.

Every year, Nike seems to go through for the Italian giants. This year is no exception. The home kit retains the sacred Juventus black and white stripes, and features only a few minor changes. You cannot go wrong with a classic kit design, and that is exactly why Nike used it. The away ones were a huge risky experiment by Nike, which definitely payed off. The pink is very innovative and cool, and the star design is absolutely sweet. While, I don't know if I would wear the loud effeminate away kit of Juventus, I do know that the players will look very cool in them, and with very good reason. Thumbs up to Nike. You've come through in the clutch.... again.
