River Plate 2018 Remake Kit
The Adidas River Plate 2018 remake kit will recreate the home shirt worn during River Plate's historic 3-1 extra-time victory over arch-rivals Boca Juniors at the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid on December 9, 2018. That unforgettable final crowned Los Millonarios as Copa Libertadores champions in the most anticipated Superclásico in football history. The original 2018 home jersey featured River's traditional white base and iconic red diagonal sash, complemented by black Adidas three stripes on the shoulders and a 1990s-inspired EQT collar accented with subtle red trim.
Scheduled to launch in early 2028, the 10th-anniversary release is expected to faithfully reproduce the aesthetics of the match-day jersey. It may also incorporate commemorative graphic details, dates, or match-specific badging to mark a decade since the triumph in Madrid.
