Nike Produce Player-Exclusive Authentic Kits for 2022 World Cup
Not a single Nike team will have to wear replica kits in the 2022 World Cup, in contrast to Adidas.
Nike Give Every Team Top-Tier Dri-Fit ADV Kit
As visible in on-pitch pictures and close-up pictures shared by the federations and Nike, Nike did produce authentic Dri-Fit ADV shirts for Australia, Qatar, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia. All of these appear to be player-exclusive.
4 team's 2022 World Cup kits are only available to buy as replica versions
It is not possible to buy the Australia, Qatar, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia 2022 uniforms in the authentic Dri-Fit ADV version, in contrast to the authentic kits of teams like France, England, and Brazil.
It is nothing new that Nike produce player-exclusive authentic jerseys for national teams. The Swoosh already did so in the EURO 2020.
Indeed, New Zealand also received a player-exclusive Dri-Fit ADV version of their Nike 2022 home and away jerseys, despite failing to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in the play-offs against Costa Rica.
All downgraded teams wear the same high-end teamwear shirt
Meanwhile, several Nike teams (Finland, Norway, Slovenia, Slovakia) were downgraded and did not receive bespoke kits from the Swoosh. However, every team's 2022 jersey is based on the same Nike Vaporknit III teamwear kit model - it is Nike's only authentic teamwear shirt.

Adidas Germany 'Alternate History' 1992 Collection Leaked
Update - Friday, May 22, 2026: Thanks to our follower @Julifu90, we have an image of the t-shirt of the Adidas Germany EQT 1992 retro collection. It is set to be released in the coming days.
We have the first image of a unique new Adidas Germany retro jacket, showcasing an intriguing new approach from the sportswear brand.
While the design instantly evokes strong nostalgia for the 1990s, this upcoming release is actually an "alternate history" creation. Despite its highly authentic vintage appearance and period-accurate details, this specific track jacket never actually existed in the official Adidas catalogues during the 1990s, making it a brand new addition to their retro-focused lifestyle collection.
To achieve this convincing old-school aesthetic, Adidas has utilized their classic 1992 template as the structural foundation for the design. The garment features a vibrant green base that heavily nods to Germany's traditional away kits of the era. The colors of the German national flag are cleverly completed on the sleeves through large geometric blocks that also recreate the 3 stripes.
The same jacket will also be released for Spain and other Adidas national teams.
