In a major step toward the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, Morocco celebrated the launch of its new national football team jerseys at Rabat-Salé Airport. The unveiling, a collaborative effort between PUMA, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), Royal Air Maroc, and Planet Sport, showcased a unified commitment to supporting Moroccan football on the global stage.
Cultural heritage in every stitch: The design of the new jerseys
PUMA collaborated with Moroccan designer Abderrahmane Trabsini to create jerseys that honor Morocco’s rich cultural legacy. The Home jersey features bold geometric patterns inspired by Morocco’s iconic zellige tilework, with the central star from the national flag, symbolizing the nation’s authenticity and pride. The Away jersey highlights Amazigh artistry, incorporating symbols and embroidery that reflect Morocco’s indigenous heritage. In vibrant red and green—the national colors—the jersey’s design includes Tifinagh script on the back, paying tribute to Morocco’s cultural diversity and historical depth.
Promoting Morocco worldwide: Royal Air Maroc’s unique campaign
Royal Air Maroc, in partnership with Planet Sport, is promoting Morocco’s national team and its tourism appeal by having all cabin crew wear the new jerseys on select flights for two days. This unique campaign extends to ground staff across Morocco and major international airports, including Casablanca, Marrakech, Dakhla, and locations abroad like Paris, Frankfurt, New York, and Dakar. By highlighting Morocco’s national pride, Royal Air Maroc is contributing to the country’s tourism and cultural outreach through sport.
