Sportswear brand Nike have launched the new away kit for France’s national football team, based on the Breton stripe.

NIKE INTRODUCES THE NEW FRENCH FOOTBALL AWAY KIT, COMBINING PERFORMANCE INNOVATION WITH ICONIC FRENCH DESIGN
Kit unveiled in photograph by style icon Karl Lagerfeld
Nike (NYSE:NKE) Today unveils the new national team away kit for the French Football Federation, celebrating the new era in French Football.
Nike’s partnership with the French Football Federation was launched in Paris in January this year, and is encapsulated by an overall campaign titled ‘Vive Le Football Libre’. The striking new design of the away kit captures the spirit of the French team whilst bringing superior performance innovation and unparalleled elegance on pitch.
The new away jersey takes strong visual cues from the ‘marinière,’ a piece of French history since the last century, and now a timeless French style icon. The marinière first appeared as the uniform of sailors in the French navy in the 19th century and was first seen in civilian wardrobes in the early 20th century. Soon, it would become a symbol of French culture, adopted by free‐spirited individuals in France and beyond.
The jersey has a tailored fit that allows freedom of movement on pitch. The lightweight fabric features Nike Dri-FIT technology and engineered ventilation systems to help keep players cool, coupled with ergonomic cut and soft cotton feel for player comfort.
The kit also embraces Nike’s Considered Design approach and along with the home kit launched earlier this year is Nike’s most environmentally sustainable kit to date, with shirt and shorts made from microfiber polyester that is entirely derived from recycled plastic bottles. For the shirt, this material is combined with organic cotton (96% recycled polyester, 4% organic cotton.)
The kit is seen for the first time in photography shot by a true icon of the fashion and photography world, Karl Lagerfeld. The photo, which captures the revolutionary elegance of the away kit, features Alou Diarra, one of the faces of the new era of the French team. The FFF away kit will be available as of March 26 and pre-ordered as of March 11.

Here’s another football training centre (see Soweto training ground in our earlier story), this time a football academy for the junior team of FC Basel 1893 in Switzerland by Swiss studio Luca Selva Architekten.
Called FCB Youngster Campus, the rectangular building will feature an array of circular windows puncturing the white concrete façade, arranged to represent a graph of the club’s ranking during its 120 year history.
A long paved walkway will direct visitors to the entrance, which will have the dimensions of a football goal, where a funnel-shaped walkway will lead people towards the five pitches at the rear of the building.
Construction is planned to begin in summer this year.

The following information is from the architects:
FCB Youngster Campus Basel, Switzerland
The Campus building forms a new landmark in the plain of Brüglingen. It is a place of convergence, a venue for the professional education by a football club that created itself a reputation throughout Europe and that nourishes accordant ambitions.

The professional players of the first squad practice on the same grounds as the top junior teams and thus provide an everyday example for the youngsters in terms of a sustainable development by FC Basel 1893. The new Campus picks up this spirit and offers various spaces for this exemplary youth system.

The scale of the building refers to the wide open space of the existing football pitches. It provides it with a measurable depth and concludes it with the main entrance in the shape and size of a goal.

The facade of white concrete appears solid as well as light at the same time and displays the club’s successes. The pattern of the round windows corresponds to the club’s ranking over the last nearly 120 years.

Canadian practice RUFproject have completed a football training centre in Soweto, South Africa, with wooden louvres wrapping the upper parts of the structure.
Designed in conjunction with Nike Global Football Brand Design, the exterior walls of the rectangular building are rendered in local sandstone.
The upper part of the building overhangs the lower, providing shaded areas for players between matches.
Located on the ground floor, the gym and catering area face the pitch and have moveable screen façades, opening them up to the field.
The facility comprises two full-sized pitches, two smaller ones, a clubhouse, player lounge, offices, viewing deck, gym and changing rooms.
Photographs are by Julian Abrams unless otherwise stated.

The information below is from RUFproject:
Football Training Centre Soweto
Situated in the heart of Soweto, the Football Training Centre is the centre of football in South Africa, where 1200 teams and 20,000 footballers play each year.
In less than 6 months, the facility was transformed into a state of the art football training centre – the first of it’s kind in Africa, and the rest of the world.
Designed by the Canadian firm, RUFproject in conjunction with the Nike Global Football Brand Design, the facility encompasses 2 new full sized artificial pitches, 2 junior turf pitches, new lighting, a clubhouse & player lounge, an education facility for the Grass Roots Soccer & Life Skillz program, a Training Gym, Physio & First Aid facility, a Product Trial, Catering, Administrative Offices, Viewing Deck and new Change Rooms.
The Clubhouse & Player’s Lounge house regular and in-depth tips and insights from Nike Athletes & Coaches and a place for coaches and players to focus on the tactical and strategic aspects of the game.
The concept was to create a clear but intricately woven relationship of spaces, linking the programmes of the facility visual and physically through “cuts” in the solid mass of the rectangular structure.
Each room has views to and from other areas of the building which creates an intricate and selective transparency between functions.
The facility has been design from the outset for and around the player, supporting the various aspects of their day.
Everything has been considered to make the facility flow and remain open, and at the same time manage the reality of creating a secure and safe place to play football.
The gym, product trial and catering functions have operable facades, opening them up to the field directly to the fields, and a player’s tunnel bisects the main building creating a direct connection from the change rooms with the field for the players.
The facade is clad in a local sandstone, and wrapped with a local timber louvre structure to mitigate the solar heat gain to the west, north and east facades.
Cantilevering over the pitches, the overhang provides shade before and after the game.
The south facade has it’s sandstone exposed and houses a growing list of players who distinguish themselves on and off the pitch – their names permanently a part of the building and it’s future.
The intent of the project was to provide a lasting home for football in the dynamic neighbourhood of Soweto that would continue on past the world cup.

His now iconic style has been recognized by Puma, who recently commissioned Wiley to create portraits for their 2010 World Cup campaign. His patterns even made their way into some of the clothing design. I’m all over that zebra hoodie!
