Nike Releases Latest Batch of National Soccer Team Kits

The countdown to this summer’s major continental soccer tournaments is on with Nike following Adidas’s lead from last week and launching a whole bunch of new national team kits.

On Monday, March 18, Nike released new kits for 14 countries around the world. Some will be playing in the 2024 Copa América, some will play in Euro 2024, and others will only wear them in friendlies for the foreseeable future as they don’t have a continental tournament coming up this summer.

For all the kits, Nike said in a press release that its design teams “took a prismatic approach to refreshing the color scheme for each federation. Called ‘metaprism,’ this year’s approach takes traditional federation colors and augments them through the lens of light and movement. Each design pushed each federation color palette in a unique direction while maintaining the country’s aesthetic identity.”

Here are the kits included in the latest release, plus what Nike had to say about each one:
