The Africa Unity Kit, created by Puma, is sanctioned by FIFA and is the first ever continental football kit. It is the official third kit of the 12 Puma-sponsored African teams, including continental champions Egypt, World Cup qualifiers Ghana, Ivory Coast, Cameroon and Algeria, as well as Namibia, Senegal, Angola, Mozambique, Togo, Tunisia and Morocco.
The kit features an Africa Unity badge depicting two hands locked in a solidarity handshake, and the brown colour on the shirt was created by mixing soil samples from Mozambique, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Cameroon.
According to Kickoff.com, a portion of the profits from sales of the replica fanwear for the kits help to fund biodiversity programmes in Africa, in partnership with the United Nations Environment Programme’s International Year of Biodiversity 2010.
Nine of the planet’s 35 biodiversity hotspots, the richest and most threatened reservoirs of plant and animal life, are in Africa; by supporting the Africa Unity Kit, Puma teams are making a powerful statement for unity and raising awareness of the 2010 International Year of Biodiversity.
