The Russia 2017 Confed Cup kit introduces a unique retro-inspired design. Made by Adidas, the Russia 2017 home kit was released on November 11, 2016, and will be worn up until the launch of the Russia 2018 World Cup shirt, slated for fall 2017.
Russia 2017 Confed Cup Kit
This is the Adidas Russia 2016-2017 soccer jersey.
After the last two Russia jerseys by Adidas were dark red, the Russia 2017 home shirt returns to a light red base. The official name of the color used for the Russia 2017 kit is 'Scarlet' and was used for the Euro 2016 shirts of Belgium and Spain.
The Russia 2017 kit draws inspiration from an iconic 1980s Adidas USSR kit that features an interesting zig-zag print. Like the shirt from the 1980s, the Russia 2017 home shirt has a white crew-neck collar and white sleeve cuffs.
The shorts and socks of the Russia 2017 Confed Cup kit are both of the same color as the shirt, and combined with white applications as well.
Russia will host next year's Confederations Cup. They will be joined by Germany, Australia, Chile, Mexico, Portugal and New Zealand. The 2017 Africa Cup champion will also take part.
Russia 2017 Confed Cup Away Kit
This is the new (and old) Russia 2017 away jersey.
Just like with Germany, the Russia 2016 away shirt gets carried over to serve as away shirt throughout the 2017 Confed Cup.
