This jersey isn’t just apparel; it’s a symbol of unparalleled success, resilience, and the legendary status of the club and its players.

This official replica allows fans to wear the look of their heroes from that unforgettable campaign, featuring the name and number of one of the era’s most crucial figures: Karim Benzema, the iconic #9.

Design Story: Classic Elegance Meets Subtle Innovation

The 2017/18 Real Madrid home kit by Adidas stayed true to the club’s timeless identity while introducing refined details:

• Pure White Base: The foundation is the club’s traditional, pristine white, symbolizing purity and dominance.
• Subtle Graphic Pattern: Integrated into the fabric is a faint diagonal graphic pattern, adding a layer of visual texture and modern flair without disrupting the classic aesthetic.
• Teal/Aqua Accents: A refreshing teal or aqua trim adorns the collar and sleeve cuffs, providing a subtle contrast and a unique identifier for this specific season’s kit.
• Adidas & Sponsor Logos: The Adidas logo and the Fly Emirates sponsor are rendered in the matching teal color, seamlessly integrating with the accent details.
• Iconic Adidas Stripes: The signature Adidas three stripes run along the shoulders, executed in white to maintain the kit’s clean, monochromatic look from the front.
• Club Crest: The legendary Real Madrid crest is proudly displayed on the chest, typically embroidered on the replica version for durability and a classic feel.

This design perfectly balanced Real Madrid’s rich history with contemporary style, creating a kit that is instantly recognizable and deeply loved by fans.

Engineered for Fans: Adidas Climacool Technology

While designed for everyday wear and fan comfort, this replica jersey incorporates Adidas’s performance technology from the era:

• Adidas Climacool: This technology utilizes breathable fabrics and ventilation channels to promote airflow and wick sweat away from the skin.
• Stay Comfortable: The primary benefit is keeping you feeling cool and dry, whether you’re cheering from the stands, playing a casual game, or just going about your day.
• Durable & Easy Care: Climacool fabrics are designed to be robust and maintain their properties wash after wash, perfect for regular use.

Experience comfort that allows you to focus on the game or simply enjoy wearing your club’s colors.

Replica vs. Authentic: Understanding the Difference

It’s important to understand that this is an Official Replica (Fan Version) jersey. Here’s how it typically compares to the player-issue Authentic (Match Version) from the same season:

• Fit:

  • Replica: Features a Standard Fit, designed to be more relaxed and comfortable for casual wear. It offers more room in the body and sleeves.
  • Authentic: Has a Slim, Athletic Fit, cut closer to the body to minimize distractions during performance.

• Fabric & Technology:

  • Replica: Uses Adidas Climacool fabric, which is comfortable, breathable, and durable for everyday use.
  • Authentic: Used Adidas Adizero (or equivalent performance tech of the time), which was lighter, often had a different texture, and was engineered for maximum breathability and sweat evaporation under intense match conditions.

• Badges & Logos:

  • Replica: Club crest and Adidas logo are typically embroidered, giving them a slightly raised, stitched feel. This is generally more durable for washing.
  • Authentic: Badges and logos are often heat-pressed (thermally applied), making them lighter and flatter against the fabric, reducing potential irritation for players.

• Weight:

  • Replica: Slightly heavier due to the fabric and embroidered elements.
  • Authentic: Noticeably lighter, designed for peak athletic performance.

• Price:

  • Replica: Significantly more affordable, offering great value for fans.
  • Authentic: Commands a premium price point due to the advanced materials and construction.

Choosing a replica means getting the authentic look and feel of the kit from that season, built for comfort and durability for the everyday fan, at a more accessible price.
