On March 10, River Plate introduced the official away kit for the season. The model was inspired on the one that the club wore on the 1985/86 League, commemorating the 30th anniversary of that tournament won by the club.[8]
On April 5, River Plate introduced an alternative orange uniform, commemorating the 30th anniversary of a 2-0 win against Boca Juniors at La Bombonera, when the team did an olympic turn at the rival's stadium after winning the 1985/86 League. In that match, an orange ball was used due to the white confetti in the field, which made the regular white ball difficult to be seen.[9][10]
