The inside of the collar features a graphic showing the Southern Cross, which is on the nation's flag. These stars shined over Rio de Janeiro when the Brasilian republic was proclaimed in 1889.

While Adidas create some 1990s style kits with front graphics, the new Brazil 2014 World Cup Home Jersey is rather classical. It comes with the traditional colors of Brazil, with the main color yellow and green applications. Inside the collar the new Brazil Home Kit comes with an 'Canarinho', the nickname of the Brazil National Team when playing in their yellow shirts, graphic inside the collar.

The Brazilian crest on the new Brazil 2014 Home Kit was redesigned, with a small golden outline added and the 'Brasil' text below it being removed compared to earlier Brazil kits.
The numbers were also updated after Brazil had been using the same type since 2008. The new Brazil 2014 Kit numbers feature a design inspired by classic fonts used for street posters in Brazil. They also feature a fluorescent outline to improve visibility.

The shorts of the Brazil World Cup Home Kit will be blue, while the socks will be white. Unlike other national teams Brazil keeps the traditional color combination of the home kit as first choice, but will switch to white shorts at some 2014 World Cup matches. The blue home short will be also used at some matches as away short.
The new Brazil 2014 Goalkeeper Kits are available in two different colors, green and grey. Both Goalkeeper Kits are based on the Nike 14-15 Goleiro Shirt.
Alexis Vega Wears Old Nike Mercurial Vapor 12 Jordan x PSG Boots

The Toluca forward chose the bold footwear for the opening match of the 2026 World Cup, stepping onto the pitch for the inauguration scenario in a design that perfectly fits the current trend of vibrant football boots.

Most 2026 World Cup sleeve badges are currently not available for purchase separately; they are only offered as an add-on that is pre-applied to online jersey orders. However, they are now available with the England 2026 World Cup jersey and can be ordered through the team's official online store.
Viktor Gyokeres Sticks to Lucky Old-Gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 'Mad Ambition' Boots
Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres has developed a superstition regarding his football boots, choosing to stick with an older colorway of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 16. Despite Nike releasing several newer packs, the forward continues to wear the Mad Ambition edition. He considers this specific pair to be his lucky boots due to his prolific goalscoring form while wearing them. Big thanks to @abcdefutbol.
Interestingly, Gyokeres has been spotted testing and warming up in newer Nike Mercurial releases. However, when it comes to the actual matches, he consistently reverts to his trusted Mad Ambition Vapor 16s. This practice of wearing new boots during warm-ups but relying on a comfortable, proven pair for competitive play highlights how important gear familiarity and superstition can be for a striker.
Uruguay Requests FIFA 'Legacy' Patch for Muslera's 2026 World Cup Kit
The Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) has formally requested that FIFA allow goalkeeper Fernando Muslera to wear the special 'Legacy' patch on his jersey sleeve during the 2026 World Cup. The patch is designated for players who have participated in five or more World Cup tournaments, a milestone Muslera is reaching with his inclusion in the 2026 squad.
Muslera was initially excluded from receiving the patch by FIFA because he did not register any playing time during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, despite being part of the official squad. His previous World Cup appearances came in 2010, 2014, and 2018. The AUF is now pushing for his recognition alongside other five-time tournament veterans such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Manuel Neuer, and Luka Modrić.
The 40-year-old goalkeeper is expected to start in Uruguay's opening match of the 2026 World Cup. If FIFA approves the request, Muslera's jersey will feature the 'Legacy' patch, marking his long-standing service to the national team across five different World Cup campaigns.

Following the introduction of special FIFA player patches for the 2026 World Cup, Thibaut Courtois has been spotted wearing a special Golden Glove patch on his Belgium kit, commemorating his award-winning performance at the 2018 tournament.
The new initiative by FIFA allows past award winners, including recipients of the Golden Boot, Golden Ball, and Golden Glove, to display their historic individual achievements directly on the sleeves of their national team shirts.
