Swastika Pattern? Kagoshima United 2022 Home, Away & Goalkeeper Kits Released
We have kit news from J3 League today as Kagoshima United have launched their new Angua 2022 home, away and goalkeeper jerseys today.
The home and GK home uniforms feature an unfortunate pattern design that resembles the swastika. The symbol was infamously appropriated by Nazi Germany but has roots in religions and cultures across Europe and Asia.
The designs immediately reminded us of the infamous Fiorentina 92-93 away shirt, which had a design that also resembled the shunned symbol and was discarded for that very reason shortly after being introduced.
Kagoshima United 2022 Home Kit
This is the new Angua Kagoshima United home football shirt for 2022.
The Angua Kagoshima United 2022 home football shirt is red accents and a tonal pattern across the front, back and sleeves.
The pattern resembles the swastika but is actually inspired by traditional Oshima Tsumugi kimonos, a traditional craft that represents the prefecture.

Argentina Lionel Messi World Cup Kit History
The official Argentina national team account has released a special image paying tribute to Messi’s journey through the FIFA World Cups he has participated in, and is set to participate in, throughout his career. Published just ahead of the 2026 World Cup, the image provides a visual journey through the various kits worn by the legendary captain since his World Cup debut in 2006.
The collage highlights the evolution of Argentina’s home and away kits across six consecutive World Cups, featuring the different designs and squad numbers worn by Messi. It showcases his early days in the number 19 shirt and his iconic, long-standing tenure in the number 10. The graphic serves as a retrospective of his milestones, spanning from his first World Cup appearance in 2006 to the team's historic triumph in the 2022 tournament.
Messi, along with Cristiano Ronaldo and Guillermo Ochoa, became the first three players in history to participate in six consecutive FIFA World Cups during their careers.
Accompanying the graphic is the message "Let's go for one more, LEGEND!", building anticipation for the 2026 World Cup where Argentina will compete as defending champions. The post has sparked nostalgia among fans, with many reminiscing about their favorite classic kits from Messi's international career, particularly the 2006 and 2014 editions.

Football kit retailer @subsidesports has offered a behind-the-scenes look into their printing operations ahead of the 2026 World Cup. In a recent social media update, the company shared a video of their heat press machinery in action, highlighting the process behind their Fan Style customization service. This service utilizes official typefaces and plotter sheets to apply names and numbers to replica shirts, ensuring an authentic look for supporters.
The short video features what eagle-eyed followers suspect to be a Transmatic REV 5SA heat press, a heavy-duty machine used for professional garment decoration.
