To capture the heart and soul of the Brasilian National Football Team, Nike invited renowned photographer Platon to photograph the Confederations Cup champions, right after their incredible victory.
Shot in their new National Team kits, ready for next summer’s tournament, Platon photographed all 23 members of the championship team along with the coaching staff for Nike.
To celebrate Brasilian football, culture and style ahead of next summer’s tournament, Platon captured 57 iconic Brasilians wearing the new Brasil National Team home jersey. Among his subjects were 23 Brasilian players and the coaching staff, spearheaded by manager Felipão. The images include some of Brasil’s leading players including Neymar, David Luiz, Thiago Silva, Paulinho and Bernard who are sure to make their mark on home soil next year.
“Whilst the shirt in real-life is closer to yellow, Brasil’s football is pure gold“, said Platon. “I shot the players in a way that brought out a more golden color reminding everyone of the power and success of this team“.
Do note that the Brasil kit is already available for pre-order at Nike stores and on nike.com and will go on sale worldwide on December 5th.
Remember: Platon’s legendary images of some of the world’s most influential and prominent people, including presidents, actors, designers and innovators, have graced the covers of the world’s leading media titles for more than a decade. But he shot other Brasilian icons of sport and culture as well, including surfer Pedro Scooby, beach volleyball sisters Maria Clara and Carol Salgado, basketball player Leandrinho, and long jumper Mauro Vinícius da Silva, Samba musician Ivo Meirelles, fashion designer Pedro Lourenço, actor Cauã Reymond, artist Pamela de Castro, and Bruno Big, who’s artwork of the iconic “canarinho” (little canary) is incorporated into the new jersey.

With havin so much content and articles do you
ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright
infringement? My site has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it looks
like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without
my permission. Do you know any methods to help protect against content from being stolen? I’d
genuinely appreciate it.
Because the admin of this web site is working, no question very
rapidly it will be renowned, due to its quality contents.
