Ancient Roman Chainmail Armor Forms Graphic Base Of AS Roma 18-19 Kit
A bespoke design, the new Nike AS Roma home kit features a subtle design occupying the the front in a deep red color that gives the impression of ancient Roman chainmail armor. In fact, the graphic design is more or less directly taken from the Lorica Hamata, the chainmail armor worn by soldiers in ancient Rome.
