Adidas has presented the Germany national football team’s away kit for the upcoming 2014 World Cup in Brazil, in collaboration with the German football Association (DFB).

For the first time in Germany’s World Cup history, national coach Joachim Löw’s team will play in jerseys with black & red horizontal stripes.

The superstars of Germany will complete their new outfit with black shorts and black socks. Arsenal hero Mesut Ozil said: “The new jersey looks great and reminds me of Flamengo Rio de Janeiro’s kit – that is sure to bring us luck for the World Cup in Brazil.”

Fine lines are designed and incorporated in the jersey’s Red horizontal stripes. These lines are symbol of team spirit and integration on the pitch.

Jürgen Rank, Chief Designer for football apparel at adidas, said: “The jersey is a strong statement underlining the lifestyle of fashion-conscious young people in Germany, their openness and their unconventional attitude.”

The new jersey will celebrate its premier in the test game against Chile in Stuttgart on March 5th.
