Introducing the 3rd Red Giants kit for the season. Coming with a 'red-out' edition, this jersey design highlights the vintage idea by displaying the classic logo of the Selangor football team, for the first time in history since the club was established. Apart from introducing the 3rd kit, Selangor FC also launched a special edition kit for the 2021 season digitally on their club's website and all social media platforms. The launch of this jersey is the third jersey launch of the season after the Home and Away jerseys were launched in early February and March last year.
Among the most notable uniqueness of these jerseys is the use of the first ever recorded Selangor football team logo which has a bull head motif (Bos javanicus) and is surrounded by a rice stalk pattern. This logo it has never been used in previous editions of Selangor jerseys.
In contrast to the Home jersey which was inspired as a tribute to the 1986 squad of the late Mokhtar Dahari and the Away jersey which was inspired by futuristic elements, the concept of the 3rd jersey and this special edition was introduced in conjunction with celebrating the 85th anniversary of the Selangor team as a football team in Malaysia.
For the record, the Selangor football team today was established in 1936 after two football entities, the Selangor Amatuer Football League (SAFL) and the Selangor Football Association (SFA) merged on 22 February 1936, before being branded as the Selangor Football Association (FA Selangor).
Coming with Ferrari red as the main color, this jersey is inspired by the retro design of old football jerseys that often look blank because they don’t have any pattern, don’t display sponsor logos and don’t use different colors.
To create a retro design that looks empty, the logos of the club's strategic partners such as PKNS, Digi, MBI Selangor, ANF and SugarBomb are printed using red to give a 'red out' expression to the jersey. Nevertheless, the yellow color which symbolizes sovereignty is still applied on the collar to complete the traditional color combination of Selangor.
