The shirt is inspired by the adidas home soccer jerseys worn by the Rubro-Negro (Scarlet-Black) when it won the 1981 Copa Libertadores da América and Intercontinental Cup titles. Like the 1981 Flamengo home shirt it features wide red and black stripes, a v-neck and a pinstripe finish on the sleeves.
“The football shirts is a complement to one of the club’s finest moments and the supporters who were always there on the Maracanã Stadium – they still hold the record for higher audience in the Championship”, says André Xavier, Product Manager in adidas Brazil He also remembers the amazing marks of the 80’s, when Flamengo had a public average of 86.063 fans, a record that remains unmatched.
“We want to the fans to be even closer. Studies shows that Flamengo’s most valuable assets are its supporters. During the new jersey drop we will focus on this relationship. The campaign #omantoehmeu (the cloak is mine) is there to prove it. Flamengo’s biggest star is its own fans.” – José Sabino, Marketing Vice President of Flamengo.
CR Flamengo will debut their 2016/17 adidas home kit when they host Sport Recife at Rio de Janeiro’s Maracanã Stadium on Saturday.
Last Campeonato Brasileiro Série A champions in 2009, Flamengo finished last season in a disappointing twelfth place in Brazil’s soccer top tier of soccer.
