The new design has a lightning bolt coming in from the shoulder all the way to the center. The beautiful bolt runs like a sash, from the left shoulder to the right hip. It jags its way down an otherwise white shirt with vivid shades of crimson and orange.

Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director, spoke about the design on Nike’s official website.

“When you combine Roma’s famous colors with the depth of the city’s mythology then you have a really potent mix,” he said.

“The lightning theme is a powerful concept for 2019-20. And I think both the home and away kits give fresh takes while staying true to the club’s identity.”

The kit is complemented by crimson shorts and white socks. They feature a yellow lightning bolt detail as well as a Nike swoosh and the words “AS Roma” midway up the shin.

The 2019-20 AS Roma away kit will be available on July 12 on nike.com, asromastore.com and in official retailers.
