The next week will see a lot of 2018 World Cup kit releases. What better time to look back at the jerseys of the 1998 World Cup in France, which were released around 20 years ago.
The most famous shirt of the 1998 World Cup is definitely the one of the host and winners of the tournament, France. There are a lot of other iconic football shirts such as Japan's 1998 Flame kit and Croatia's unique home jersey but also many strips that stand out because of looking outrageous such as Mexico's, Jamaica's and South Africa's very 1990s-like designs.
