From afar, on television or from the stadium seats, the away jerseys of the Bianconeri and Nerazzurri appear remarkably alike.
While undoubtedly distinct when viewed up close, the visual impression from television broadcasts or stadium seats is that Juventus`s and Inter`s away jerseys are far more alike than one might anticipate. During the fifth matchday of the championship, many observers couldn`t help but notice this striking similarity. Tudor`s team played at 6 PM against Atalanta, wearing their second kit at home. Shortly after, Chivu`s team took to the field in Cagliari, seemingly sporting an identical jersey. One might simply refer to these as the curious quirks of marketing.
Distinct Yet Similar Designs
Juventus`s second kit, produced by Adidas, features soft pastel blue tones with yellow and white details, drawing inspiration from the flag of Turin. Inter`s away kit, designed by Nike, is white with interwoven patterns in varying shades of light and darker blue. This design is inspired by artisanal textiles and aims to represent community and collective strength, as explained by the club during its launch. Despite their unique characteristics, subtle differences, and distinct concepts, they appear almost identical when viewed from a distance. In essence, setting aside the intricate details and close-up scrutiny, television camera angles undeniably highlighted an obvious resemblance. It is certain that in the return leg of the Derby d`Italia (Inter-Juve, scheduled for mid-February 2026), only one of the two teams will be permitted to wear their second kit at San Siro.
