Brand New Nike Atletico Madrid 2015/16 Away Kit
The new shirt is inspired by the 1995-96 'doblete' season...
The brand new Atletico Madrid away kit was launched yesterday and welcomes a return to the popular dark blue colours worn throughout their successful 1995-96 campaign. During their El Doblete season Los Rojiblancos won both the La Liga and Copa del Rey title, a triumph that still today stands as one of the club's defining achievements. Managed by Radomir Antiat at the time, Atleti won the league by four points ahead of Valencia and beat Barcelona 1-0 in the final of the Copa del Rey, Serbian midfielder Milinko Panti scoring the winning goal. Throughout this memorable season, the club wore a dark blue away kit and for 2015-16 a refreshed, modernised take on this design will grace pitches across Spain and beyond. As on the home kit, inside the back of the neck sits a small tab of the Spanish flag featuring the anniversary dates of 1995/96 and 2015/16. While this new kit represents a proud, traditional symbol of the club, it also offers players the very latest in Nike performance innovation, fabric technology, moisture management and environmental sustainability.
