These are the new France Euro 2016 shirts, the uniforms to be worn by the French national team in the 2016/17 international season. Made by Nike, these kits will also be worn by the likes of Olivier Giroud (Arsenal) and Anthony Martial (Man Utd) at this summer’s European Championships, which Les Bleus will be hosting.

The home jersey is predominantly red, with a darker red on the shoulder obtained by cross dyeing the former with black. Engineered knit zones appear on the front, with Nacao (Nation) and Valente (Brave) Continue reading →
