Brazil 2022 World Cup Squad Boots Battle - Heavy Fight Between Adidas, Nike & Puma
Brazil are one of the favorites to win the FIFA 2022 World Cup. We take a look at which brands sponsor which players of the Brazil national team, in cooperation with Football Boots DB - there is a heavy battle for leadership.
Brazil face Serbia, Switzerland, and Cameroon in the 2022 World Cup. Brazil's 2022 World Cup kits are of course made by Nike.
Nike Narrowly Lead Brazil 2022 World Cup Boots Battle
As visible on Football Boots DB's new 2022 World Cup Football Boots Overview, brands are heavily battling for supremacy in Brazil's 2022 World Cup squad.
Nike (still) leads the race with 10 players
Nike lead the race with 10 players, followed by Adidas (9), and Puma (7). No other brand is present in Brazil's 26-men squad.
If we look at the latest Brazil starting XI, things look a bit different. Nike dominate here with 7 players, while Adidas and Puma both supply 2 players.
Of course, Puma have Brazil's most famous player, Neymar. They signed him in 2020 for a record £23 million per year - this is more than what Adidas pay Messi (£18 million per year) and what Nike pay Crisitoan Ronaldo (£15 million per year).
2022 World Cup Boots Battle - All 32 teams
A look at the whole 2022 World Cup football boots battle reveals that Brazil's squad is very different to the average. Nike make the soccer cleats for almost half of all players (48.6%), Adidas come second with 35.2%, and Puma come third with 12.7%.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani Wears Arsenal Kit Inspired Kurta at Eid al-Adha
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani attended Eid al-Adha prayers in the Bronx wearing a kurta based on Arsenal's 2025-26 away shirt. The longtime Arsenal supporter chose the traditional tunic for the Wednesday celebration.
The garment replicates the navy blue design with red lightning bolt patterns from the club's away kit and includes the Emirates Fly Better sponsor logo. Photographs of the outfit circulated widely on social media after the event.
Mamdani, who has supported Arsenal since childhood, combined his fandom with the Muslim holiday observance in the city he leads.
Gillingham 26-27 Away and Third Kits Released
League Two side Gillingham FC has officially revealed its new away and third kits for the upcoming 2026-2027 season. Produced by technical sponsor Macron, the dual launch offers fans two vastly different aesthetics, pairing a highly elegant, retro-inspired away strip with a bold and modern third option.
The new Macron Gillingham 26-27 away shirt introduces a classy and refined look for the club's travels. It features a cream base, anchored by a striking central vertical stripe in teal and green. Adding to the tailored aesthetic is a traditional teal polo collar adorned with blue and white trim, which perfectly matches the detailing on the sleeve cuffs.
In stark contrast, the Gillingham 26-27 third shirt embraces a loud, contemporary design. The alternate jersey is built on a black base that is completely covered by a vibrant purple marbled, liquid swirl graphic pattern. To ensure the branding stands out against the chaotic background, Macron has utilized a striking neon mint green for the manufacturer logo, the central sponsor, and the trim on both the modern V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs.
Which of these two new Gillingham 26-27 kits do you prefer - the classy cream away or the bold purple marbled third? Let us know in the comments below.
