Swastika Pattern? Kagoshima United 2022 Home, Away & Goalkeeper Kits Released

We have kit news from J3 League today as Kagoshima United have launched their new Angua 2022 home, away and goalkeeper jerseys today.

The home and GK home uniforms feature an unfortunate pattern design that resembles the swastika. The symbol was infamously appropriated by Nazi Germany but has roots in religions and cultures across Europe and Asia.

The designs immediately reminded us of the infamous Fiorentina 92-93 away shirt, which had a design that also resembled the shunned symbol and was discarded for that very reason shortly after being introduced.

This is the new Angua Kagoshima United home football shirt for 2022.

The Angua Kagoshima United 2022 home football shirt is red accents and a tonal pattern across the front, back and sleeves.

The pattern resembles the swastika but is actually inspired by traditional Oshima Tsumugi kimonos, a traditional craft that represents the prefecture.
