The new South Africa soccer jersey is designed by Nike and will be introduced during the African Cup of Nations taking place in January 2015.
The home jersey is gold in color and comes with a classic flat green collar and a single gold stripe on the inside of the neckline. The left chest features South Africa's national flower the King Protea, while the South African Football Federation's logo is centered below the V-neck on the front and the South African flag on the back.
The away jersey is green and is paired with gold shorts and green socks that otherwise features the same design as the home kit.
These new kits features a suite of Nike technological features and are designed to be lightweight and well-fitting, enabling players to give their very best on the field.
