Venezuela’s New National Team Jersey: A Tapestry of Land, History, and Pride
CARACAS, Venezuela – The Venezuelan Football Federation (FVF) today unveiled the new official adidas jersey for its national teams, dubbed ”La Vinotinto,” a kit deeply rooted in the nation’s geological history and cultural identity.More than just a sporting uniform, the jersey is a powerful symbol of Venezuela, its people, and the enduring spirit of a nation.
The design draws inspiration from the tepuis – the ancient, table-top mountains that dominate the landscape of southern Venezuela. These geological wonders, among the oldest formations on Earth, represent origin, resilience, and a profound connection to the land. Adidas has translated the tepuis’ unique shapes,textures,and reliefs into a distinctive graphic pattern woven throughout the shirt,subtly echoing the traditional body paintings of Venezuela’s indigenous communities.
“This shirt is born from our land,” stated the FVF in a press release. “It’s a symbolic representation of the country, its people, and the strength that unites us as a national identity.”
The iconic “Vinotinto” (burgundy) color remains central to the jersey’s aesthetic, complemented by refined details that exude elegance and character. In a first for Venezuelan national team jerseys, the creative concept originated entirely from Venezuelan talent within the FVF, emphasizing a commitment to celebrating local artistry and heritage.
subtle yet impactful, the three signature adidas stripes on the shoulders are rendered in yellow, blue, and red – the vibrant colors of the Venezuelan flag.this detail serves as a constant reminder of national pride, a symbol that has traveled with “La Vinotinto” to pitches around the globe. The inscription “LA VINOTINTO” in gold lettering adorns the back of the neck,further reinforcing a sense of belonging and national fervor.
The jersey will be available in two versions: an authentic, player-issue edition, and a replica for fans. Both are constructed from 100% recycled materials and incorporate high-performance technology for optimal freshness, comfort, and mobility.
Availability:
* November 6th: available in select Adidas stores nationwide.
* November 7th: Available in all Adidas and Sportland stores across Venezuela.
“La Vinotinto” will debut on the field during the upcoming FIFA Round of November, as the men’s senior team faces Australia and Canada in international friendlies held in the United States. The women’s national team will also proudly wear the new kit during their next CONMEBOL Women’s Nations League qualifying window.
This new jersey isn’t simply apparel; it’s a wearable embodiment of Venezuelan identity, history, and a hopeful gaze towards the future.
