Africa 'Unity' football shirt 2010 - (XL)

Condition: 8/10

Comments: The Africa Unity Shirt was intended to be worn during the World Cup in South Africa. Created by Puma, and originally sanctioned by FIFA, it was supposed to be the first ever continental football kit and the official third kit of the 12 Puma-sponsored African teams.

For as yet unspecified reasons it was never worn during the tournament but was used in pre-tournament matches.

The brown pantone was created by mixing actual soil samples from Ghana, Ivory Coast, South Africa and Cameroon. The colour gradient transitions from brown to blue is a visual metaphor for soil to sky. All of the applications, the number and the badge, are cast in yellow representing the sun shining down on Africa.

Couple of blemishes, slight cracking/damage to number on reverse (pictured).
