Red and blue brushstrokes recreate the famous ‘evil sash’ for the new Crystal Palace FC ‘third’
The presentation of the new Crystal Palace FC match kits continues with the unveiling of the Third shirt. Like the other shirts produced by the Italian brand for 'The Eagles', the Third is also made using Eco-Fabric, 100% polyester obtained from recycled plastic and certified by the Global Recycled Standard. An elegant Third characterised by pictorial graphics that recall the club's colours and bring back the hugely popular ‘evil sash’ design, unveiled on the eve of the eagerly awaited friendly match against Liverpool.
The new “Third” is black with a red-blue diagonal stripe starting at the left shoulder with a brushed-on effect, recalling the famous red and blue sash from the 2013/14 Crystal Palace Away kit. The shirt features a crew neck in white knitwear with red-blue details, a colour combination that is also present on the sleeve edges. The backneck is personalised with the club logo, the colours, and the acronym CPFC (Crystal Palace Football Club). On the back, below the collar, the word EAGLES is printed in white.
On the chest, in white silicone, the Macron Hero is applied on the right side, while the Crystal Palace FC crest is applied on the left, on the two-tone diagonal band. The black shorts have red side inserts on the right and blue ones on the left that pick up on the shirt's distinctive brushed graphic effect. The black socks have two red and blue horizontal stripes on the upper edge.
The jersey has a Body Fit. The main fabric used is Eco-Poly Stretch Light, and the presence of Eco-Mesh inserts makes the garment exceptionally light and perfectly breathable. The new 'Third', just as the 'Away' presented last month, will soon be available from the Crystal Palace FC section of the macron.com website.
