Norway Wears Old 2024-2025 Keeper Kits
This unexpected switch caught the attention of kit enthusiasts, especially since the team had already debuted their new goalkeeper kits earlier in the year. The decision to revert to the older design is particularly unusual because Norway's goalkeepers wore the new 2026 kits throughout their pre-tournament preparation matches. Furthermore, the updated uniforms were officially worn and photographed during the FIFA media day just before the tournament began.
While no official explanation has been provided by the Norwegian Football Federation or Nike, speculation suggests the change could be due to color clash concerns regarding FIFA's strict equipment and broadcast regulations.
However, in the first knockout stage, Norway is set to wear their yellow 2026 keeper kit.
