ANKARA, May 4 (Reuters)- Experienced Cameroon defender Geremi burst out laughing when reminded about the daring and unusual kits his team have worn over the years.
Sleeveless vests, eye-wateringly tight tops and a one-piece outfit have all featured in the Cameroon wardrobe, with further surprises in store at this year's World Cup in South Africa.
"Feeling comfortable is the most important thing of course," the 31-year-old told Reuters over Turkish tea at the training ground of his club Ankaragucu.
"So long as people are comfortable why not experiment. I think there will be a surprise in South Africa, but I'm also hoping we surprise with our results not just the kit," said Geremi, sporting a dark blue shirt with the club badge on it.
Cameroon wore a one-piece kit in their traditional colours of green and red for three group matches and the quarter-final of the 2004 African Nations Cup but FIFA said it broke the rules.
Cameroon were fined and docked six World Cup qualifying points, a punishment which was later reversed.
The Indomitable Lions also caused controversy in 2002, turning up for that year's African Nations Cup in Mali in sleeveless shirts which looked more like basketball tops. They were also swiftly banned by FIFA.
Geremi, who has played for Real Madrid, Chelsea and Newcastle United, arrived at Ankaragucu in January hoping to play regularly and increase his chances of making the World Cup squad.
"Unfortunately this is not a team who win every game but at least I play every week which is important for me for getting ready for the big one," he said.
