Croatia 2018 World Cup Home Kit Released

Nike today officially unveiled the new Croatia 2018 World Cup home kit, confirming the previous leaks. The Croatia 2018 World Cup kit introduces a new interpretation of the team's iconic checker design, featuring much larger checkers than recently. Made by Nike, both Croatia 2018 jerseys will be launched shortly.

“For a football connoisseur, Croatia are one of the most visual and alluring teams playing the beautiful game today,” says Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director. “Croatians are also deeply proud of their heritage. This comes through in the checkered shirts, which are inspired by the national flag and viewed with envy by fans from other countries.”

Croatia 2018 World Cup Home Kit

This is the Croatia home shirt for the 2018 World Cup.

The Croatia 2018 World Cup shirt features a bold design with large red and white checkers, with the sleeves being solid red with a subtle zig-zag knit pattern, typical of Nike's 2018 Vapor template. A similar zig-zag detail is applied to the checkers on the front of the Croatia 2018 World Cup home shirt.

A navy blue Swoosh sits in the center of one of the white checkers, opposite of the federation of crest, on the chest of the Croatia 2018 World Cup soccer jersey. The sleeves of the Croatia 2018 home shirt are red, while the back is solid white.

White shorts and blue socks are expected to complete the Croatia 2018 World Cup kit.
