Nike has released two new Argentina uniforms for 2017. The home and away designs are to begin being used this coming Saturday in the Rugby Championship. Argentina’s away match against South Africa will see the debut of the new Nike uniforms.
Pictured below is the official home uniform. This will be used for the majority of test matches in 2017. It has the official national colors of Argentina. The combination of sky-blue and white stripes continues the strong tradition of home shirts worn by Los Pumas.
The official away uniform will be predominantly navy-blue. Pictured below, the uniform is not expected to used greatly in 2017. Argentina’s remaining nine test matches are to be against Australia (2), England, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand (2) and South Africa (2).
In releasing the new uniforms Nike noted that the technology utilizes tight-fit which makes it more difficult for opponents to grab ahold of the uniforms.
