Brazilian top-flight side Atletico Paranaense have undergone something of a regeneration ahead of the 2019 season, with the club unveiling both a brand new crest and a brand spanking new set of kits to go with it.
Atletico have ditched their traditional ‘script’ badge in favour of a new ‘winged’ design which looks like something Satan would use if he had his own airline…

The new badge is also front and (slightly off) centre of Atletico’s excellent new Umbro jerseys, which sees the club’s famous old red and black stripes given an angled, diagonal revamp.
If you like your shirts to come with a sleek retro edge – and Pies most certainly do – then you’ll probably be all over these things…
Oof. Excellent. Like something the bassist of a 1980s thrash metal band might wear while sound-checking before a gig in Curitiba.
You’ve got to give it to Umbro. They most certainly know what they’re doing when it comes to Brazilian camisetas.
