In honor of the World Cup taking place this year in Brazil, we thought of how soccer or football for Europeans, connects with clothes. Of course, it’s all about the uniforms and this is why we decided to share with you an inforgraphic on what the standard soccer kit look like in the future.
During the last years, the focus was placed on innovation as well, but more on broadcasting innovation than on equipment innovation. We remember seeing for the first time a HD camera and gazing at the crystal-clear picture probably in the same way people gazed when they first saw a color film.
In sports, the focus has been always placed both on broadcasting technology but also on the wearable technology. We are very big fans of technology and gadgets and how they are incorporated in clothes! If until now tech and soccer have met only in a quite safe place (better fabrics, better shoe design, cooler t-shirts, etc.), now it looks like the creators of sports clothes want to incorporate veritable gadgets taken from a sci-fi scenario in the clothes worn by players.
Take a look at the inforgraphic and enjoy! We are big fans of the impact visualizer and the low visibility detector and feel that they can be included in other areas of living as well! Many of these ideas can be incorporated into day-to-day living should they be put into practice. Not sure how the player camera would work, (what director can manage an additional 24 cameras?), but time will tell.
What is your favorite idea you’d want to see incorporated into the beautiful game?
