Along with Romania, I had a hard time finding the kits for Russia. So I jumped back to the trusted Euro 2008 site and found the home and away kits. Click here to go to the Euro 2008 page for Russia and see the kits.

Russia made a stance for their position in the tournament, and I think Nike made a stance with the kits they provided. Simplicity is key, and when dealing with red, white and blue as your primary colors it is hard to mess that up. On the home kit, the Russian side will be wearing a solid white top with blue around the sleeves and collar. The blue is a nice touch as the shorts are solid blue as well. On the away kit it will be a red top with red, white and blue stripes across the middle. This kit is not my favorite by any means. I have never been a fan of the horizontal stripes in the middle of the kit. It just seems too out of place for me, however Nike does make it look decent. I’m giving these kits another 3 out of 5 stars. I like them, but they are not worthy of anything higher. We’ll see what Nike comes out with when they design the next set.
