Real Madrid's new third jersey draws inspiration from the legendary blue seats at the Santiago Bernabeu, with a fabric pattern subtly mimicking the contours of those iconic stadium seats.
The base color is a rich bluebird shade, just like the club’s successful 2013-14 away kit, the season Real Madrid captured their famous La Decima UEFA Champions League title. White jagged Adidas stripes run along the shoulders and sleeves, adding clean contrast and a touch of stylish flair to the retro-inspired design. The kit features the classic Real Madrid crest accompanied by the Adidas logo.

What truly sets this third kit apart is an inspirational tribute to Real Madrid legend Juanito. Inside the collar, and also displayed on a special jock tag, is the famous quote attributed to him: “90 Minuti en el Bernabeu son molto longo,” which translates to “90 minutes at the Bernabeu is a very long time.”
This phrase originated during a UEFA Cup semi-final moment in 1985 and has since become metaphoric of the daunting atmosphere visiting teams face at the Bernabeu, a fortress where Real Madrid’s fighting spirit often shines brightest. By including this quote, the kit not only pays tribute to Juanito’s legacy but also represents the resilience and passion that define Real Madrid’s essence.
Fans can expect the kit to be available in both short and long sleeve versions, paired with matching blue shorts and socks. The jersey is priced at around $190 and has already begun to capture imaginations across the football world.
