Exclusive: Adidas Italy 125 Years Anniversary Kit to Be Adjusted for Debut

 In a leaked leak, Footy Headlines can reveal that the Adidas Italy 125 Years Anniversary Kit will be undergoing changes prior to its debut on the pitch. These changes are required to conform with UEFA regulations and boost the performance of players during matches.

There are no official images yet - We have created a visual representation of what it will look like using the FIFA Kit CREATOR.There aren't any images of the version that is on-pitch of the Adidas Italy 125 Years Anniversary kit at the moment. It will be viewed in its first public display on Thursday night at the earliest - when Italy play Spain during the UEFA Nations League semi-finals.

1. Adidas Italy 2023 Anniversary Kit to Feature Stripes on Shoulders Area Only

A noticeable change is the absence of all three stripes on sleeves since UEFA regulations demand a non-restricted space in the sleeves.

Its Sleeve Free Zone will feature the UEFA Nations League logo on the right side of the sleeve as well as the UEFA Foundation for Children logo on the left sleeves.

2. Adidas Italy 2023 Anniversary Kit Shorts to Feature No Pockets in Match

The kit also does not include pockets, which are a unique feature of versions sold at retail. Pockets are, naturally not suitable for the highest performance on the pitch.

Adidas introduced pockets on football shorts as part of the Jamaica 2023 away and home kits, which makes them more fit for wear in everyday life (it is not difficult to see why it's beneficial to have pockets away from the field).

Although there is some speculation over possible changes to the logo like the removal of the anniversary message below the logo as well as the distinctive label to the left of the logo, the changes haven't been confirmed to date.

It is important to note that the kit worn by players will be exclusive to players and won't be sold to the general public. Fans will be forced to settle to purchase replicas altered anniversary kit when it is available.
