Design Story: Classic Elegance Meets Historic Success

The 2017/18 Real Madrid home jersey embodies the club’s timeless elegance. It features the traditional crisp white base, symbolizing purity and dominance. The design is subtly accented with teal (or ‘Aero Green’) details, appearing on the iconic Adidas three stripes running along the shoulders and sides, as well as the sponsor logos. This specific shade of teal provided a fresh, modern touch to the classic white canvas, making the kit instantly recognizable. The simple crew neck collar contributes to the clean, sophisticated aesthetic that Real Madrid is known for. Wearing this jersey connects you directly to the visual identity of a team that achieved unprecedented success on the biggest stage.

Tech Breakdown: Adidas Climalite Comfort

The Adidas Climalite technology used in the 2017/18 fan version jerseys was engineered with fan comfort in mind. This fabric is designed to wick sweat away from your skin, moving it to the surface of the jersey where it can evaporate quickly. While not as lightweight or performance-focused as the Adizero technology used in the player version kits of that era, Climalite provides excellent breathability and moisture management for everyday wear, watching games, or light activity. It ensures you stay dry and comfortable whether you’re cheering from the stands or out and about.

Fan Version vs. Player Version: Understanding the Difference

It’s important to understand the distinction between the Fan Version (Replica) and the Player Version (Authentic/Adizero) jerseys from the 2017/18 season. Our product is the Fan Version, designed for comfort, durability, and accessibility for the everyday supporter.

Key Differences:

• Fit:

  The Fan Version features a Standard Fit, offering a more relaxed and comfortable feel suitable for casual wear. The Player Version has a much tighter, athletic fit designed to minimize drag and contour to an athlete’s body.

• Fabric & Feel:

  The Fan Version uses Adidas Climalite fabric, which is slightly thicker and more durable. It feels soft and comfortable against the skin for prolonged wear. The Player Version uses Adidas Adizero, a significantly lighter and thinner material with a different texture, optimized for breathability and performance on the pitch.

• Badges & Logos:

  On the Fan Version, the Real Madrid crest and Adidas logo are typically embroidered. This gives them a premium, tactile feel and adds to the jersey’s durability. On the Player Version, these elements are heat-pressed to reduce weight and prevent irritation during intense physical activity.

• Construction:

  The Fan Version has standard stitched seams. The Player Version often features bonded seams and strategically placed ventilation zones for enhanced airflow and reduced chafing.

• Price:

  The Fan Version is more affordably priced, making it accessible to a wider range of supporters. The Player Version is a premium product with a higher price point.

Choosing the Fan Version means prioritizing comfort, a classic look, and value, perfect for showing your support in everyday situations or at the stadium without the need for performance-specific features.

Wear It Your Way: From Stands to Streets

The beauty of the Real Madrid 2017/18 Home Long Sleeve Fan Jersey lies in its versatility. Wear it:

• Gathered with friends to watch El Clásico or a crucial Champions League tie, feeling connected to the team’s spirit.
• Casually around town, proudly displaying your allegiance to Los Blancos.
• For a light training session or kickabout, enjoying the comfortable Climalite fabric.
• As a cherished piece in your collection, commemorating one of the club’s most successful periods.

The long sleeves add an extra layer of style and warmth, making it perfect for cooler days or simply for those who prefer the aesthetic.

Sizing & Fit Guide
