The Best Away Jersey of the Summer Doesn't Need a World Cup to Prove It
With the trees shaking off the last of winter and blue skies becoming more and more dependable, it won't be long before we hit peak summer. And what signals that arrival? Well, the FIFA World Cup, of course.
This summer, the US, Mexico, and Canada host the biggest football tournament on the planet, and adidas has shown up accordingly. The Three Stripes just dropped away kits for 25 federations, and the headline detail isn't the colorways or the cultural storytelling (though there's plenty of both). It's the Trefoil.
For the first time in 36 years, adidas' iconic three-leaf logo is back on World Cup jerseys, and it looks exactly as good as you'd hope.
Just take a peek at Chile's away jersey. If that's not a summer staple, we don't know what is. Scattered with pink Atacama wildflowers, inspired by the rare phenomenon where Chile's driest desert suddenly bursts into bloom after rainfall. It's a geography lesson and a wardrobe essential in one.
adidas has bottled that moment and put it on a football shirt, and the result is genuinely one of the most beautiful jerseys we've seen in years.
An off white base, dark brown on the collar, cuffs, and Three Stripes down the shoulder tie it all together. It's restrained where it needs to be, and completely wild where it counts most.
The only catch? Chile didn't qualify. This shirt won't be seen on a pitch this summer. It will, however, be seen absolutely everywhere else, and rightly so.
