Ajax has tapped Daily Paper for its latest kit, embodying Amsterdam street football culture through its gold, black and red hues. The jersey spotlights nine Amsterdam football courts and a new interpretation of the Coat of Arms. Daily Paper branding is placed under the Ajax crest, and a black stripe runs down from the middle of the neckline to the waist. Outlining the black line are two red stripes on either side, contrasted by the gold background.
Along with the jersey’s release, Daily Paper, Ajax, and adidas have released a short film detailing the experiences of past and present Ajax players. The third Ajax kit is now available on the Ajax club store, adidas, and Daily Paper websites.
