The new home kit consists, unsurprisingly, of the classic orange colour coupled with navy outlines. The colours represent traditional Dutch values: courage, leadership and loyalty. Netherlands will debut the shirt in Friday’s friendly tie with France.
The away kit has a navy base and lighter blue sleeves and will debut when Netherlands visit England next Tuesday. Both shirts will be on sale from Thursday on the Nike website, costing £65.
Ajax midfielder Riechedly Bazoer said of the new kits, “Playing for your country is the pinnacle for any footballer and I think the new uniform and what it stands is superb.
“We are ready to fight for the shirt and show that we can go into battle with the best teams in the world. The new kit looks great and we are doing everything we can to show our qualities as we wear it for the first time against France.”
