Today, adidas unveils the official 2026 home kits for 22 partner federations ahead of FIFA World Cup 26™, including: Algeria, Argentina, Belgium, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Northern Ireland, Peru, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela and Wales*
The collection combines historic visual identities and traditions of each nation and portrays them in a modernist, forward-looking aesthetic. The designs are representative of a liberated style of play and fresh perspectives on the game, aiming to bridge the gap between every generation of fan, ahead of the biggest World Cup tournament ever.
The bold array of jerseys reflects the heart of each nation via colourways and patterns that celebrate key aspects of each nation’s identity. From their rich histories to famous landscapes, traditional architecture and iconic past kit designs, each jersey aims to unite fans around a shared passion for their nation.
Throughout, subtle details that nod to the tournament’s storied history – including acknowledgements of historic jersey designs, past victories and memorable dates – can be discovered when viewed up close, creating on-going moments of delight for fans past the first viewing.
The full range is crafted for performance, built to support world-class players in high-pressure moments to cope with the varying conditions they will experience across three unique host nations. To tackle the more intense warm-weather conditions, body-mapped 3D engineered mechanical stretch fabrics incorporating adidas’ latest CLIMACOOL+ materials wick sweat faster, keeping players dryer for longer. Perforated wide 3-stripe tapes enable ultimate breathability, while strategically placed mesh holes on both fabric and trims deliver best-in-class air permeability, ensuring optimal ventilation even in the most demanding climates.
The jerseys also feature a new lenticular heat-applied federation crest and adidas logo expression, a process that creates a unique shapeshifting appearance, adding a bold and innovative visual detail.
Sam Handy, GM Football at adidas said: “The national kit is the symbol of a nation’s togetherness and pride. As teams step onto the world stage at the biggest World Cup we have ever seen, they carry the hopes of a whole new generation of fans, while representing those that have come before them. A World Cup is about creating moments that transcend the stadium, so we’ve engineered the designs as an honour to each nation’s roots but also to celebrate an era where every fan, everywhere, is part of the story.”
Thomas Mace, VP Design, adidas Football said: “Designing our jersey roster for the FIFA World Cup 2026™ has been about honouring each nation’s unique identity while pushing the boundaries of innovation and performance. Every jersey tells a story — blending cultural heritage with modern aesthetics — and is built using our most advanced technologies to keep players cool and comfortable on football’s biggest stage. From the bold visual details to the shapeshifting lenticular logo and innovative ventilation features, this collection represents the future of football jersey design.”
All adidas federation home jerseys** will be available to purchase from 6th November via adidas.com and select retail stores.
Design overview of select nations:
Argentina
The traditional Argentina vertical stripes in sky blue and white, take on a shapeshifting look, with a unique 3 coloured fading effect, channelling the blue tones from the three previous FIFA World Cup™ winning shirts – 1978, 1986 & 2022. The back neck sees a bespoke sign-off reading ‘1896’ – celebrating the founding date of the AFA.
Germany
Championing Germany’s previous successes in this tournament, the home jersey pays homage to some of the nation’s most iconic shirts. The repeating diamond shape and chevron detailing are each inspired by the iconic graphics from previous shirts, including the 2014 World Cup winning shirt.
Italy
Tradition meets innovation in the Italy home Jersey – inspired by the rich heritage of Italian football, the shirt celebrates the essence of the FIGC (the Italian Football Federation) with its bold design. Azzurra, referring to the National team’s nickname and the colour of the jersey, meaning ‘the blue,’ appears in gold lettering across the back of the shirt neck.
Japan
The classic blue of the Japanese Home jersey is brought to life using an abstract graphic with ash blue linear details, reflecting the famed haze found on the horizon where sky and sea meet in Japan. The Japanese flag sits proudly as a sign-off across the back of the neck.
Mexico:
Heritage and future come together in the new México home shirt. This jersey represents the energy and pride that will unite generations of fans during the upcoming FIFA World Cup. It celebrates the unwavering support of a nation that lives and breathes football, where every shared moment reflects the heart of México. On the back of the neck, the phrase “SOMOS MÉXICO”, meaning “We Are México”, appears as a symbol of the unity and passion that define the Mexican spirit.
Spain
Spain’s home kit for FIFA World Cup 2026™ arrives in a clean, pinstripe finish, with the red base punctuated by repeating yellow vertical lines, that draw visual cues from the national flag and crest. The spirit of the nation is carried by the players with the word ESPAÑA seen written on the back of the shirt neck.
