Bosnia and Herzegovina Wear Never-seen-before Teamwear Kit Due to Apparent Delivery Issues of New Bespoke Adidas Shirts
Sep 27, 2022, by Pat
The Bosnia and Herzegovina national team returned to UEFA Nations League action this week, clinching a spot in League A following a 1-0 win over Montenegro before losing 4-1 to Romania.
What's interesting is that despite unveiling a set of bespoke Adidas kit earlier this month, the Bosnia and Herzegovina team ended up wearing teamwear jerseys in the end; this is most likely due to Adidas having delivery issues with the Bosnia 2022 home and away kits. The jerseys are listed on the Adidas online store with a delivery date of 30 September.
Bosnia and Herzegovina 2022 One-off Kit
Check out a few stills from the match between Romania and Bosnia below.
Funnily enough, the kit worn by the team against Romania were not the same one that they had worn back in June. The kit from the Montenegro match had been worn against the same opponent during that international window.
The new kit from the Romania match, however, was based on the Entrada 18 teamwear model rather than Condivo 22 Match Day. It's likely that we will have to wait until 2023 to see the actual new Bosnia and Herzegovina kits in action. A friendly against Russia was planned to be played on 19 November, although it's doubtful that it will go ahead.

Oliver Baumann Slams FIFA Over World Cup Jersey Badge
Germany goalkeeper Oliver Baumann has publicly spoken out against FIFA's commercialization, pointing to a controversial practice involving temporary kit badges at the 2026 World Cup. In a recent interview with BILD, the goalkeeper criticized what German media have dubbed "Trikot Gate," shedding light on how players' match jerseys were handled for profit behind the scenes.
According to Baumann, FIFA applied special commemorative patches to player shirts before matches, labeling players with titles like "Legacy" or "Debutant." However, immediately after matches, staff entered the dressing room to peel those badges off the jerseys. Frustrated by the process, Baumann stated that players just wanted to keep their authentic kits intact rather than having them stripped.
Baumann did not play a match in the 2026 World Cup. Those badges are removed from the kits to be later part of trading cards, as part of a deal with Topps. However, it remains to be seen if badges of players who finally did not make a debut will be made into cards, or if it was just removed because of the streamlined process.
The goalkeeper appealed to governing bodies to prioritize the sport itself over endless commercial initiatives. Baumann warned that excessive commercialization, from stripped kit patches to unnecessary breaks, threatens to alienate fans and players who care about the tradition and passion of football.
Mohamed Salah Takes Number 10 Shirt at Trabzonspor
Mohamed Salah has officially completed his move to Turkish side Trabzonspor after leaving Liverpool. Following his arrival, the Egyptian superstar has been assigned the club's number 10 shirt for the 26-27 season. The Turkish club had initially prepared the number 11 jersey, the same squad number Salah wore during his iconic stint at Anfield, but the winger requested number 10 instead to match his shirt number with the Egypt national team.
To accommodate the request, Trabzonspor player Ernest Muçi, who previously held the number 10 jersey, agreed to give up the squad number out of respect for his new teammate. During his arrival flight to Turkey, Salah was seen wearing a presentation kit featuring number 61. The number 61 holds special cultural significance in Trabzon, representing the province's vehicle code and a tradition celebrated by supporters in the 61st minute of matches.
Salah has signed a two-year deal with Trabzonspor, and his official number 10 kit is now available as the club prepares for the upcoming season.
