Design Story: A Tribute to Belgian Cultural Heritage

The Belgium EURO 2024 Away Jersey represents a beautiful fusion of football tradition and cultural heritage. The light blue colorway is a deliberate homage to Belgian cartoonist Hergé and his world-famous comic book character, Tintin. This thoughtful design choice celebrates Belgium’s rich contribution to global pop culture while creating a distinctive look for the Red Devils on the international stage.

Complementing the striking blue base is an elegant white polo collar that further enhances the Tintin-inspired aesthetic. The jersey features subtle yet sophisticated geometric patterns across both front and back panels, creating a diamond/chevron effect that incorporates the significant “1895” marking—commemorating the founding year of the Royal Belgian Football Association.

Visual Elements & Craftsmanship

• The imprinted pattern across the jersey creates a shimmering effect that catches the light, adding depth and dimension to the design
• Premium gold accents on the adidas logo and the beautiful Belgian crest create a regal contrast against the light blue background
• The Belgian national crest is expertly rendered, showcasing the iconic red, yellow, and black colors of the Belgian flag
• White pinstripes provide subtle detailing that enhances the overall aesthetic
• The jersey is designed to be paired with brown shorts and white socks for the complete away kit look

On the back of the jersey, you’ll find a crown symbol, representing the “Royal” element of the Belgian Football Association, continuing the regal theme that runs throughout the design.

Technology Breakdown: Performance Meets Comfort

This fan version jersey is engineered with adidas AEROREADY technology, specifically designed to keep supporters comfortable throughout the match and beyond. This advanced moisture-managing fabric works by:

• Wicking sweat away from your skin to the outer layer of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly
• Providing enhanced breathability during intense moments of the game
• Maintaining a comfortable body temperature whether you’re in the stadium, at the pub, or wearing it casually
• Offering a soft, lightweight feel against the skin for all-day comfort

The fabric composition utilizes recycled materials, aligning with adidas’s ongoing commitment to sustainability without compromising on performance or comfort.
