This is not only one of the nicest Real Madrid home-kits of this period, but one of the nicest Real Madrid home-kits of all-time. The traditional white with the dazzling gold trim completely embodies the ethos of the club.

It maintains the heritage of 'Los Blancos' as well as showing the 'golden' status of the club. Additionally, it featured a collar which is quite a difficult design to do well. However, the results were perfect and one would often see Ronaldo pop his collar during matches in a very Eric Cantona-Esque way.

Furthermore, it is a great kit as it represents the season that Real Madrid was finally able to break Barcelona's monopoly in La Liga, with Ronaldo scoring a then-record 40 goals in the league campaign.

#1 2015/16 season

Here we see Ronaldo in the ultra-modern looking 2015/16 Real Madrid home-kit.

In at number one is Real Madrid's 2015/16 edition of their fabled home-kit. This kit is the most modern-looking that was produced during the Ronaldo-Era at Real Madrid and incidentally the nicest.

Unlike any of the other home-kits created during this period, this kit was the closest to being truly all-white. Of course in the modern age, the sponsors and the kit manufacturers must be at least partially visible on the kit designs.

However, the kit achieves this in a minimalistic way, with the grey colour scheme for the sponsorship, numbering, and lettering, being incredibly subtle, smart, modern, and aesthetically pleasing.

Additionally, the kit looks perfectly fitted and breathable, which is something some of the other kits in the past failed to do properly. All in all, it is the nicest Real Madrid home-kit in recent years and one of their best ever when it comes to home-kits.
