Zalgiris Kaunas has already unveiled the official home and away jerseys for the 2024-2025 season, designed by PUMA.
The team’s new uniform, created especially for Zalgiris’ 80th anniversary, is now available for fans to buy at the Zalgiris Shop.
The video for the launch of the jerseys was produced by the Cunamis Films team, with Arnas Butkevicius, Matt Mitchell and Ignas Brazdeikis taking part in the filming alongside the young players from Zalgiris Basketball Academy.
“We had a great time at the courts with the youngsters, played basketball, and wore the new Zalgiris jerseys for the 80th anniversary. We had a really good time,” said Butkevicius after the filming.
The shirts commemorate the club’s history with a unique design and are decorated with golden oak leaves.
“Quite interesting colors, very comfortable clothes, nice and light. The design is also interesting, different from the Zalgiris merchandise of the years. It's a commemorative outfit with exclusive details,” said the Zalgiris player about the new outfits.
The American Mitchell, who posed in a green jersey, admitted that the green colur suits him and has already encouraged fans to buy jerseys with his number and name on them.
“Please be sure to buy a jersey that is number 21 and bears Mitchell’s name. I like the color green,” joked the rookie.
Together with the young basketball talents, the Zalgiris players, who tried their luck on the basketball court, enjoyed the opportunity to pay tribute to the city and reminisce about their childhood.
“I had a lot of fun in this filming. We played with a lot of young potential stars. There is a huge passion for basketball in the city, so I’m grateful to be able to be here and be someone these kids can look up to. I try to be a role model for them"” said Brazdeikis.
Zalgiris fans can already buy the new jerseys in the Zalgiris Shop.
