Rumours are that Nike are launching the next national team jerseys tomorrow (today? since this article was posted 12 hours ago), so wondering if we'll get something tomorrow morning / overnight.

Always unsure at how I feel at this stage of national team jerseys, as it's always a 'qualifiers only' jersey due to the timing of the Asian Cup, unlike Europe and South America where the releases are timed to the World Cup + their continental tournaments.

Based off this article and website, us and Qatar are the only ones not to have leaked yet. Can't say they aren't doing anything for Asia, as Korea's is part of this leak

It might be now or the next round of qualifiers. It's a weird overlap where we have a qualifying jersey then a WC and AC version only to then change again. I ordered plenty of the current kit as I like it and it's got some good memories. I'm very curious how the next one will be especially the away kit.

Australia seemingly good at keeping things under wraps, maybe more down to their own incompetence and organisation, yet new kits have burst onto the scene without any suspense. I think the last WC kit had a bit of a build up.

Beta on rainbow

I personally think we are getting the Netherlands kit (but in Australian colours obviously).
Not sure what the away colour scheme would be. Maybe we're going back to the navy and white/gold.

We’re Australian why would be wear the Netherlands kit?

You were elected to lead, not to read?

I wanna be elected. A third party, the wild party!

Far out, and heaven knows we actually need that!

everyone but Qatar and Australia officially launched. This includes China and Korea, so not sure why no Australia

Normally DHGATE has new designs floating around weeks before release. Only Olympic kits have been added lately. The men's team kits were flawless on the site. I ordered Matildas and unfortunately they were horrible print shirts and newer ones still have discoloured emblems or shading. They're having a massive sale with coupons and I'm keen to get both Olympic kits.

I usually use this site for any non-Australian kits I wanna get (so will probably get the Italian one) https://www.gogoalshop.se

would love to get Olympic ones, never usually see them for sale

Cheers. I used Aliexpress in 2018 and was gobsmacked at what I got for 20€. Mooy absolutely mint with no difference when holding it up next to the ones at the German retailer. I did get a Cahill in lemon yellow from another seller. One of a kind! Kinda obsessed I think I got about 7 from the last WC with names and numbers. Every club kit I've gotten has been nothing short of excellent. Stuff the retail markups!

I'm doubtful how good or true the Olympic kits on DHGATE are but 2 reputable sellers have uploaded the so I can only assume their factories have the blueprint and tags etc

Yep, I think the only “authentic” ones I’ve gotten in the past 3 years are the Matilda’s ones, and my Italian club in Serie C. Everything else I’ve been getting through these kinds of websites.

in fact, the first website I used, I must have bought so much (retro Italian jerseys mainly), that they actually sent me real Italy Euro 2020 Chiesa shirt. One of the shirts I bought off them was the Euro 2020 shirt anyways (but with my name on it instead) so it was interesting to compare. 2 and a half years later, the numbers have actually faded off the “real” gift version, but are still on my “fake” one.

That’s one I might fork out the actual dosh for. Just saw that ASICS/AOC will have them available from May for $90 each

EDIT: actually just saw what you meant, and at that $20ish mark, might be worth it for the Olympic stuff haha

I got a pair of kid's Cameroon socks instead of a kit once. Got refund and the socks are still about.

wonder IF any new kits will be available at the game on Thursday.

word is they did a full shoot with new jersey on Sam Kerr but they cant launch it yet... so they put it on hold. There was going to be a whole men and women wear same jersey crap.

So... the same way it's been for every men's kit launch in the past?

If they launch before then, sure. But nothing out yet...

looks like all the international teams have launched their kits..... the Norway one is gorgeous wish we had the balls to do that sort of design. 

yer agreed Norway looks cool.
As does for me Netherlands, Cro blue kit.

Just a hypothetical of what we would have had now, had we stayed with Adidas in 2004/gone back to Adidas:



EDIT: Damn I forgot to colour the collar

I'm honestly expecting something similar to this (different collar and slightly different sleeve cuffs, and different shade of green) to be honest. Will literally be like the Matildas shirt without the marble/wave pattern

I guess I'll take this as confirmation that nothing is coming this window

Good lord no. That's average.

All I ever hope for with the kits is white socks, yellow shirt, green shorts.

It's the away I wish they'd go bananas on. The last 2 away are/were cod ordinary.

Yeah I wish they'd go bananas for us too. Unfortunately, not a big market so will always take the safe/easy route. One thing I'm genuinely interested in from an aesthetic point (and this is only for the player / 'authentic' versions of the shirt, unfortunately not the replica) is that Nike is doing this mesh/silicon forms of the badges, rather than just a single silicon shield:



Few other things on the kits:
Goalkeeper kits template for Nike, looks very much like the Matildas shirt pattern tbh...


Also, knowing that we always get the generic Nike font (I think the only time we didn't was 2010 World Cup and 2014 World Cup qualifiers), this has been revealed for the France and Portugal kits:


Looks like there are 4 collar options that Nike have used. Just please don't give us Nigeria's square collar ffs...

OMFG that round US colour is trash.... i actually like the goalkeeper templates though, Portugal blue one looks nice... 

Can anyone weigh in on why the Socceroos and Matildas use the coat of arms on the national team jerseys and not the FA badge like most of the rest of the world does?

I mean some of them are garbage but the FA logo isnt that terrible compared to like US or Canada for example.

My pet peeve on Aussie merch is how clearly it stands out from what the team wears on the pitch... Not upset about the coat of arms as a symbol before anyone jumpos down my throat but perhaps, if we used a modified version of it (like England does with FA 3 lions badge) then there wouldnt be an issue with fans also wearing it with pride???
