villa4europe Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 i own this one personally i think boca kits are always better when they go darker blue they did at least put some effort in last year im looking at the new one thinking the blue is wrong the yellow is wrong the grey is shit the collar is shit the positioning of the badge logo and sponsor actually makes it look worse rather than better...its got no redeeming feature on it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 the home they've also robbed from the adidas kits from the 80s but annoyingly not used the trefoil logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 they also annoyingly don use the trefoil logo on some of the training gear / retro range stick this on those 3 and they are knocking them out of the park well they would if they delivered to Europe or bothered to sell any of their products on the adidas EU website... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 9, 2021 Author Share Posted August 9, 2021 The colors just work, Parma has also had some corkers over the years. And of course Boca Junior got their colors from the flag of a Swedish ship that was anchored in the Buenos Aires harbor which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be amazing to go see a game at La Bombonera but doubt it will ever happen sadly. Fun story I have a friend who is has absolutely no interest in football who was in Buenos Aires maybe 15 years or so ago visiting a friend of his who's parents were Swedish Ambassadors in Argentina (and I think Uruguay as well) and they got invited to some party while there. Everything was in blue and yellow and turns out it was a Boca Junior 100 year anniversary celebration and apparently a bunch of huge stars where there. He had no clue until the other guy filled in the blanks for him Edited August 9, 2021 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had no clue until the other guy filled in the blanks for him It really would, I'd love to go there. It seems such a cauldron of a place. Such a unique stadium. I have always had a thing for Boca, the legends that have come through their ranks. Always loved Maradona as a kid, despite erm 1986, but for me I'd have loved to have gone back in time to see Juan Roman Riquelme in either spell there, maybe even against River. I still look out for original name / numbered Riquelme shirts on Ebay to this day on a saved search but "not at that price thanks", someone will f--- up one day (with the pricing). That's hilarious in a way of your friend ending up amongst centenary celebrations in the mix with people whose following of a club is beyond religion, and of course the relevance of their nationality within that history. It is a unique "perk" of randomness not well known worldwide. As for kits 21-22, in case it hasn't been put up there's this one below. Hardly their worst, as far as it goes, but I like to think the lines are representative of sedimentary layers of blue-tinged shit that they have and continue to endure over the years. F--- Boyle Sports too, if I were to open a betting account with anyone, well it won't be them. I usually have a personal embargo against anyone that sponsors them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
