The kits are linked by a unilateral design language that has seen each nation’s traditional identity and regalia modernised and re-augmented through what Nike refer to as the “metaprism” — an artistic lens that has helped push each one into brave new realms of colour and detailing.
Inspiration has mainly been taken from national flags and emblems though a selection of more esoteric sources have also been employed, such as flora and fauna, geography, traditional ceramics, ancient Asian pearl inlays and even 1990s ice hockey.
Here we go through each federation’s new home and away kits, analyse the various thematic and prismatic concoctions and assign them all a cast-iron rating out of 10.
