Let's start with the coming World Cup winner:




Nike rip-off from 2006, but still very decent.
Not sure what the white patches on the arms are about though.

Well that's rather nice. I'm curious as to why they have elbow patches on their shoulders though.

Nice, classic look. Don't like the badge though. Perhaps the patches on the sleeve are for whatever insignia FIFA may wish to slap on.

Beautiful as ever, and nice n simple, on the whole.

Doesn't appear to have any shoulder patch blank spots, tho' from what I can see the stripes do stop just over the shoulder.

Adidas are coming back, people! I still don't like the arm patches though - putting confederation badges onto the stripes was never a problem before.

Can you have stripes (adidas) on stripes (Argentina)?

Bit of a clash going on there, I reckon.

I noticed the red square on Japan's shirt when they played SA today. What's the deal? The Unfair Play logo?

Oh, thank god for that! At least Cameroon's shirts are nicely subdued:

Not sure I like what they've done to the lion crest, though - making it all angular, as opposed to the old-style one.

Just as Russia go claret, Portugal seem to have gone definitively red, after years of claret.
