The collaboration between Paris Saint-Germain and the Jordan Brand drops tomorrow (Sept. 14), and we now have our first official glimpse at the entire collection. The offerings include two special edition kits that will be worn by PSG exclusively in the Champions League, a couple Air Jordan sneakers, Phantom and Mercurial boots with Jumpman and Swoosh branding and the entire gambit of lifestyle clothing (jackets, shorts, tees, parkas, pants, etc.).
The National Football League kicks off its 2018 season Thursday night as the Atlanta Falcons take on the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
I love a good football kit just as much as anyone. Even the wacky ones, like SCR Peña Deportivo’s special Ibiza DJ kit. But in terms of which kit is, well, different, then this one might just take the cake. Meet the FC Rostov carpet kit.
You are probably thinking why on earth would they want to design something that is reminiscent of a rug in an old person’s home, but it turns out there is a meaning to it.
When it comes to brands, adidas is the king of the of the soccer world. Nike, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar under its belt, gives the German giant a run for its money, but there’s no doubt the official partner of FIFA is the biggest brand, especially when you look at what soccer players are sponsored by adidas.

SCR Peña Deportivo has officially won the battle for the best kit in all of soccer. It might simply be the best soccer kit ever.

Before you start hating your best friend who supports your rival club, yelling expletives at the TV and getting too wrapped up in the heat of the season’s commencement, here’s a story sure to hit you in a soft spot.
For those who grew up watching the Champions League in the early 2000s, the extended absence of 2009-10 champions Inter Milan has certainly been felt. Between 2002 and 2012 there was a 10-season period in which Inter always had a seat at club football’s most prestigious banquet, but the 2018-19 campaign will mark Inter's first appearance in seven years.

We’ve had the World Cup to fill most of the offseason, but now it’s that boring part of the summer when clubs play friendlies against considerably weaker teams.
