RB Leipzig and Real Betis Unveil Unique Soccer Kits with Novel Gimmicks
- RB Leipzig and Real Betis surprise fans with glow-in-the-dark and scratch-and-sniff soccer kits, adding new sensory experiences to the game.
RB Leipzig Introduces Glow-in-the-Dark Kit
RB Leipzig and Real Betis have taken soccer kit design to the next level with innovative features that go beyond traditional loud colors and zany graphics.
Glow-in-the-Dark Jersey
RB Leipzig's new fourth alternate kit glows in the dark, featuring a black base with blue abstract prints that illuminate turquoise in low light. The entire kit, including player names and numbers, lights up, creating a futuristic look reminiscent of the 'TRON' universe.
Strict Bundesliga Regulations
Despite the unique design, RB Leipzig will wear a modified version of the kit in their upcoming match against Borussia Dortmund due to Bundesliga rules prohibiting reflective materials. However, fans can still enjoy the glow-in-the-dark effect on replica shirts.
Real Betis' Scratch-and-Sniff Kits Made of Oranges
Real Betis and Hummel have launched special-edition kits made from low-impact materials, including organic fibers derived from orange peel, emphasizing sustainability. The outfield kit and goalkeeper jerseys feature a texture mimicking orange peel and a scratch-and-sniff feature releasing the scent of orange blossoms.
Unique Sustainability Approach
By using oranges, a symbol of Seville, Betis aims to reduce plastic use in kit manufacturing. The chemical-free printing process adds to the eco-friendly design, making a bold statement about the club's commitment to sustainability.
