- Julian Nagelsmann’s side will wear the new away strip for the first time in Sunday’s match against Finland
- The jersey features a navy foundation with light blue accents inspired by 1990s fashion
- Prices start at €75 for children, with the authentic player version retailing at €150
- Adidas released the kit two months ago, with the team first wearing it against Switzerland in March
The Germany national team will display their new away colours for the 2026 World Cup when they face Finland in a friendly match on Sunday evening. Adidas designed the strip, which the players initially wore during their 4-3 victory over Switzerland earlier this year.
The shirt boasts a rich navy base that pays tribute to classic German training gear from past decades. This creates a timeless and subtle look. Bright sky-blue details appear vertically on the jersey, copying styles popular in the 1990s. This gives the kit a retro yet lively feel.
A key feature is the zigzag pattern of sharp diagonal lines across the material. This design comes from traditional Adidas shoebox artwork. It makes the shirt instantly recognisable. The hem also carries a quiet “Since 1954” mark to honour the team’s long history.
Midfielder Florian Wirtz praised the unusual colour choice when the kit launched. He noted that supporters could easily wear it as casual clothing. He added that the design builds excitement for the upcoming tournament.
Fans can purchase the jersey through the official DFB store, the Adidas website, physical Adidas shops, and selected sportswear retailers. The standard adult size costs €100, while junior versions sell for €75. The exact match-day shirt worn by players retails at €150. Demand is likely to rise as the World Cup draws nearer, so early purchase is advisable.
