Jamaica No Get No Authentic Kits From Adidas?

Jamaica's national football team will probably not receive authentic kits from Adidas, we can exclusively reveal. And this despite being presented like a premium team from the sportswear giant.

Jamaica have just signed a deal with Adidas at the start of the year. They are surely one of Adidas' new hyped national teams, with their kits and whole collection being showcased at Adidas' London Flagship store this weekend.

Adidas Give Jamaica Replica Kits Only

The only Adidas Jamaica 2023 kits available for purchase are replicas. There are no images or information regarding an authentic version. In the official launch pictures, players were also wearing the replica kit, and Adidas also only show replica kits.

It appears that the Jamaica U17 team also wear replica kits, at least an image shows them holding a replica Aeroready kit. There are no on-pitch images of Jamaica's 2023 Adidas kits yet.

The women's team will debut their 2023 kit from Adidas in the 2023 Cup of Nations next week. This upcoming debut may give more insight into whether Jamaica will be wearing replicas or authentic kits for their games. Additionally, it will also reveal whether the match-worn shorts will have pockets for the players.
