Is Nike Not Allowed To Sale France 2-Star Jersey With World Cup Winners Badge?
Sep 9, 2018, by Chris
Shortly after the 2018 World Cup, Nike released a 2 star version of the France 2018 home kit. The France 2-Star jersey Nike presented did not feature the badge of the 2018 World Cup winners, however. Now the France national team debuted the Nike France 2 star jersey featuring the official 2018 World Cup winners badge, raising questions if Nike will release the France 2 star jersey with the World Cup winners logo.
Nike Seems to Be Not Allowed To Sell Kit With FIFA World Cup Winners Badge
After Adidas-sponsored Germany won the 2014 World Cup, Adidas released the Germany 2014 home kit with four stars and the World Cup winners badge just a few hours after Germany's triumph. The Germany 2014 kit with the golden 2014 World Cup winners badge was available to buy, in contrast to France's jersey. All Germany kits released (and sold in stores) between the country's 2014 World Cup title featured the golden badge.
The golden FIFA World Cup winners badge was officially introduced in 2008. Italy was the first team to get the badge on their kit, and their Puma 2009 Confed Cup kit was also only sold officially without the badge.
In fact, the Adidas Real Madrid 2018-2019 home kit is also sold with the official Club World Cup winners badge. So it seems like that it is not allowed for Nike and other brands except Adidas to sell shirts with the golden World Cup winners badge.
Barcelona's 2016-17 home kit was sold without the badge only
The Nike France 2 star jersey is currently almost sold out everywhere.

No More Volt: Reebok Santa Cruz 26-27 Third Kit Released
Brazilian club Santa Cruz FC and Reebok have officially unveiled the team's new third kit for the 26-27 season. Titled "A Profecia de 57", the special-edition release celebrates two defining moments in the club's history: the 1957 anthem written by Capiba that coined the nickname "O Terror do Nordeste", and the 2016 Copa do Nordeste title that fulfilled the prophecy ten years ago.
The Reebok Santa Cruz 26-27 third jersey introduces an elegant black and gold design. Across the black base, intricate golden fractured lines trace the geographical outline of Brazil's Northeast region. The front of the shirt features Santa Cruz's classic interlocking SCFC monogram badge rendered in metallic gold, mirrored by Reebok's vector logo on the opposite side. A sharp v-neck collar with gold trim and matching sleeve cuffs complete the look.
Subtle commemorative emblems highlighting "A Profecia de 57" and "O Terror do Nordeste" decorate the release alongside gold numbering on the reverse. Matching black shorts and socks with gold accents complete the new Santa Cruz third uniform.
Club Africain 26-27 Third Kit Released
Following the unveiling of their home kit earlier two weeks ago, Tunisian giants Club Africain and technical sponsor Kelme have officially launched the club's new third kit for the 26-27 campaign.
The Kelme Club Africain 26-27 third jersey delivers a sleek and stealthy design, featuring a black base elevated by an intricate tonal graphic pattern with calligraphic undertones across the front and sleeves. Strong contrast comes via the classic fold-over collar, styled in red with thin white tipping, matched by solid red sleeve cuffs. Below the rear collar, the shirt includes the club motto "Beyond the last breath" stamped in red.
The shirt is finished with white details for the Kelme paw logo and front sponsor Ooredoo, sitting alongside the traditional red and white Club Africain crest. Matching black shorts and socks complete the full look for the Tunisian side.
