This image shows the unique Rayo Vallecano 2015-2016 Away Shirt.
The Rayo Vallecano 15-16 Away Kit is mainly black with a striking rainbow sash on the front, while the six colors making up the sash are also present on the sleeve cuffs and in the form of a set of ribbons on the upper back of the Rayo Vallecano 2015-16 Away Jersey.

- Yellow stands for those who never lose hope
- Green stands for those who fight to protect the environment
- Blue stands for those who fight against child abuse
