The Euros are fast approaching and after the delay due to the Coronavirus pandemic I can't wait for the tournament to kick off. I know that my summer is going to be being spent watching game after game as I think it could be a very good tournament with possible shock results. I am really looking forward to seeing all the shirts in action too as there are going to be some brilliant shirts on show from all the Nations partaking in the tournament.
Recently Adidas have released their Euro 2020 away kit collection and it hasn't dissapointed. The five shirts in this post are all really nice in their own way and there are a few which I would love to add to my collection. Fingers crossed these shirts get quite a few wears over the course of the tournament as I think a few are actually nicer than the home shirts this time around. So here are the five shirts that Adidas have released in the Euro 2020 away collection...
I aren't normally a fan of Sweden shirts but for some reason I am really liking this one. It is just nice and simple and I love the yellow 3 stripes on the shoulders. I definitely like this away shirt more than their home one as it just looks smarter in my eyes. The navy with a hint of yellow to keep in with the Nations typical colours just works really well and the yellow doesn't over power the shirt. This could very easily be a shirt I add into my collection if it drops in price during or after the competition.
Growing up I always used to pick Spain in sweepstakes when big tournaments came around and I don't know why. I also used to love all their shirts and wish I had a lot of them in my collection but one I really don't want to miss out on is this away one for the Euro 2020 collection. I loved their home shirt for the tournament however, this one is definitely a winner for me. From the image it looks like the silver and white on the shirt work really well together I love how simple it looks but the badge and Adidas logo stand out in the red colour. The cuffs of the sleeves are great too in the traditional Spanish colours just to add something a little bit extra to the other wise simple design. The silver 3 stripes look great once again too.
The Russia shirt is one that I aren't really a fan of if I am honest, if anything I probably prefer their home shirt for the tournament. This is definitely my least favourite shirt from all the home and away choices but for some this will be a great shirt. It does give me a bit of a retro vibe with the blue and red block stripes across the front of the shirt and continuing onto the cuff of the sleeve. Maybe if I saw this shirt in person my opinions would change on it a bit but for now I would have to say it isn't a favourite.
This Germany away shirt is definitely my favourite out of the 5 shirts in this post and I really need to add it to my collection. I love the blacked out badge and Adidas logo as it makes the shirt look really plain and simple. Even the 3 strips on the shoulders are blacked out, I think more shirts these days need to be as simple as this as it makes them look a whole lot smarter. The only bit of colour on the shirt is on the cuffs of the sleeves and even then it is still dark so it doesn't take away from the simplicity of the shirt.
Finally we have the Belgium away shirt which to be honest just looks a bit too much like the Spain shirt for me. The only difference is the use of the Belgium national colours instead of the Spanish ones and instead of the silver on the shirt and the 3 stripes are red. Maybe in person you might be able to see a few more differences but for now I think I definitely prefer the Spain one and if it came down to having to pick just one of the two to add to my collection it would certainly be Spain that is the winner. .
So those are the shirts in the Adidas Euro 2020 away collection, there are definitely some good shirts here but which would you add to your collection first?
Keep an eye out on the blog as we will be doing more posts about all the Euro 2020 kits in the near future as there really are some fantastic ones for the tournament and quite a few might be future pick ups if they reduce in price after the tournament. There is also plenty of other shirt content coming up too with shirt hauls, deeper looks at ones in my collection and so much more. Got any shirt content you would like to see? Let us know and we will see what we can do.
