Authentic Japan Football Shirts by adidas - National Team

Official adidas Japan football shirts available with player kit printing. Nicknamed 'Samarai Blue' Japan wear their now iconic blue kits out of superstition. Historically they had worn white home kits, with the colour derived from the national flag. However, following poor showings at Italia '90 and the 1992 Olympics they decided to change to the blue kits they wore as a change kit they wore when they beat Sweden in their first ever major international competition match at the 1936 Olympics. In 2020 adidas released a unique shirt with detailed 'cloud camoflage' pattern ready for Japan to host the 2020 Olympics, that was later postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
