Pelé Sports Bike Kick T-Shirts – EURO 2012 Editions

Pelé Sports launched their Spring / Summer 2012 collection earlier this year with the innovative soccer apparel and shoe designs that we’ve come to expect from them. Included in the range are the Pelé Sports Bike Kick T-Shirts for several of nations competing in the upcoming UEFA EURO 2012 competition.

Featuring new twists of the now iconic Bike Kick tees that was part of Pelé Sports’ first range in 2010, the EURO 2012 incarnations the shirts come in versions for just about every major European soccer power including defending champions Spain, Germany, England, Portugal and the Republic of Ireland.

We’ve had a chance to have an in-person look at the Pelé Sports EURO Bike Kick T-shirts for all of the nations mentioned along with several others. The slim fit shirts are made of 100% lightweight, cotton that feels soft and extremely comfortable on the skin. They are highlighted by a silhouette of Pelé in mid-flight while engaging in a bicycle kick.

Each image includes country-specific national colors and symbols. For example, the England version features the St. George’s Cross and a royalesque crown above Pelé’s head while the Spain version adds flames to the Pelé silhouette in recognition of the team’s nickname of “La Furia Roja” (“The Red Fury”). Meanwhile, the Germany Pelé Sports EURO t-shirt features a detailed print celebrating Die Mannschaft’s three FIFA World Cup titles (cup images, championship years and more are included for a nice soccer history lesson). The Pelé Sports logo is screen-printed on the right sleeve of  each tee.

With the Summer of 2012 now upon us and the Euros kicking off in less than two weeks time, the Pelé Sports EURO 2012 Bike T-Shirts are perfect alternatives to $85+ soccer jerseys. They are now available at World Soccer Shop and Soccer.com (search for “Pele Sports”).
