SIX5SIX x Kerala Blasters Jerseys 2022-23: Kerala is one of the most vibrant places when it comes to football. A tradition of adoration for football has long existed in Kerala, and legends like Thiruvalla Pappan, Olympian T.A. Rahman, T.K. Chathunni, V.P. Sathyan, and many more have carried the baton forward. Furthermore, with the introduction of Kerala Blasters F.C. in 2014 in the Indian Super League (ISL), the believes of collectivism, inclusivity, and sportsmanship has made the sport even more popular.
In every decade Kerala has produced atleast one national footballing icon, which gives an idea of the true reflection of the Kerala’s footballing stature.
The 3 time ISL finalists, and the winner of Kerala Premier League 2019-20 has an enormous fan base including their supporters' group Manjappada, which has gained a reputational for being one of the most vocal and passionate fan clubs in India.
Which is why, we put a lot of thought in designing the 2022-23 kits for Kerala Blasters F.C.
Check them out.
SIX5SIX x KBFC | Home Kit | Celebrating the Beautiful Game
There’s no place quite as vibrant as Kerala, where celebration is a way of life. Whether it’s festivals or football, the way that the locals worship/celebrate both is something we were inspired by.
This jersey is a cultural amalgamation of both - the beautiful game and the various festivals as a way of life for the local.
We used 5 elements to design the home kit to capture what the beautiful state of Kerala is all about and annexed it to the home kit.
1. Nettipattam
In the Indian state of Kerala, elephants are decorated during festivals. They wear a distinctive golden head covering called a Nettipattam.
2. Chenda
Chenda is a percussion instrument made of wood, parchment and leather. It is a major part of all festivals in Kerala.
3. Pookkalam
Pookalam , Pookalam is an intricate and colourful arrangement of flowers laid on the floor. Tradition of decorating Pookalam is extremely popular in Kerala and is followed as a ritual in every household during ten-day-long Onam celebrations.
നമ്മുടെ നാടിനും നമ്മുടെ നാട്ടുകാർക്കും വേണ്ടി 💛

4. Kudamaattam
Thrissur Pooram is the most vibrant and spectacular temple festival of Kerala. The Kudamattam ritual is one of the main attractions of the festival and devotees and spectators from all parts of the world throng to the Pooram to see the caparisoned elephants and their handlers perform.
5. Vallam Kali
Vallam kali is a traditional boat race in Kerala. It is a form of canoe racing, and uses paddled war canoes. It is mainly conducted during the season of the harvest festival Onam in spring.

SIX5SIX x KBFC | Third Kit | Beaches
600km of Arabian Sea shoreline and beaches are the hotspot for locals to play football at, not just in Kerala but across the globe. Using that thought, we’ve interpreted the texture of the sand on the beach as a pattern.
This kit is inspired by the 600km stretch of the Arabian Sea coast and the texture of the sand on the beach, where locals love to play football.
