Porto 18-19 Third Kit

This is the New Balance Porto 2018-19 third shirt.

Porto's 2018-2019 third kit comes with an immediately detectable 90s inspiration. Colored in an eye-cathcing blue, the new third jersey features a stunning graphic print on the front.

Celebrating the club's 125th anniversary, the graphic on the Porto 18-19 third shirt is a commissioned artwork by local underground street artist Hazul Luzah. As a FC Porto fan, Hazul has celebrated the club’s history, utilising components from within the iconic FC Porto crest, the stadium and the city of Porto. The design, in his signature contrasting line-work and free hand geometric pattern, shines throughout the New Balance FC Porto third jersey.

Blue shorts and socks complete the kit.

General Manager of New Balance Football, Kenny McCallum said: “Working with Hazul has enabled us capture the colours of not only the club but the streets it was founded upon. This kit completes an exciting collection to mark the 125th Anniversary of this iconic Club and we’re proud of this range. We think this kit will be a real hit with the fans of the club in Porto and around the world.”

FC Porto player Sergio Oliveira said: “Everything about this kit looks fantastic. You can really see the effort that has gone into making sure we celebrate the anniversary of the club in the best way possible. It’s going to be a special moment when we get to first walk out onto the pitch wearing it.”
