Nike and Paris Saint-Germain launch Third Kit for 2016-17 season

Paris Saint-Germain’s new luminous all-white third kit nods to Paris’ reputation as the City of Light.

The advanced performance technology in the kit is visible on the chest, where engineered knit zones create a subtle geometric pattern that enhances fit with smaller mesh shapes at the bottom of the graphic. The sleeves and the upper back have been infused with platinum threads that shine underneath stadium lights, whereas the club’s crest and Nike Swoosh feature an iridescent finish.

Odes to club pride appear on the interior and exterior of the shirt. “Paris” is knit into the back collar, while “Grandeur” and “Passion” adorn the inside right and left cuffs, respectively.

The sides of the kit have a black stripe that runs the length of the shirt and matching shorts. Expanding with then player is in motion, the stripe maximizes ventilation and reveals a flash of underlying white. White socks, featuring NikeGrip technology, with a platinum linear graphic on the calf, accentuate speed.

The new PARIS Saint-Germain third kit will be available on September 22 at Nike.com and official Nike and Paris Saint-Germain retailers.
