Football fans, rejoice! Adidas has resurrected one of the most recognizable jerseys in football history: Peru's 1978 World Cup kit. This iconic white jersey, boldly slashed with a diagonal red sash, is back as part of Adidas's acclaimed "Bring Back" series. Though Peru's 1978 World Cup campaign ended in the group stage, the jersey's striking design achieved legendary status, transcending its time.
The "Bring Back del 78" capsule collection faithfully recreates the long-sleeved version of the classic jersey, complete with the sharp sash, clean silhouette, and the iconic Adidas Originals trefoil logo. But Adidas doesn't stop at the shirt itself. The collection also includes matching red track tops and bottoms, each featuring Adidas's signature three stripes and Peru's retro crest – a complete heritage-inspired look.
This launch is more than just a retro release; it's a celebration of Peruvian football across generations. Adidas brought together legendary players from the 1978 squad, including Héctor Chumpitaz and Teófilo Cubillas, alongside current national team stars like Paolo Guerrero, Mafer Reyes, Flavia Montes, Ian Wisdom, and Fabiola Herrera. This powerful collaboration symbolizes the enduring legacy of Peruvian football.
The "Bring Back del 78" collection is a wearable piece of history, a stylish tribute to La Blanquirroja's past, and a must-have for any football enthusiast. It’s available now at prodirectsport.com.
