Japan 2022 World Cup Home Kit

Japan 2022 World Cup Home Kit

• Japan was not a major football force until the end of the 1980s, with a small and amateur team. Since the 1990s, when Japanese football became fully professionalized, Japan has emerged as one of the most successful teams in Asia; they have qualified for the last seven FIFA World Cups with knockout stage appearances in 2002, 2010, and 2018, and won the AFC Asian Cup a record four times, in 1992, 2000, 2004 and 2011. The team also finished second in the 2001 FIFA Confederations Cup and the 2019 AFC Asian Cup.
• The Japan 2022 World Cup home kit is predominantly blue with a subtle graphic covering the front and sleeves. The back is solid blue.
• The graphic on the new Japan 2022 home shirt is made up lines and showcases a flock of origami cranes, inspired by the federation badge.
• Template-wise, the Adidas Japan 2022 home shirt is based on the Adidas 2022 World Cup template with red side panels and white inlets under the armpits.
