Revolutionary? Adidas Jamaica 2023 Kit Shorts Feature Pockets

Adidas and the Jamaican Football Federation have today launched the official team jerseys for the Reggae Boyz (men's team) and Reggae Girlz (women's team). With it, we also get a first look at the shorts and socks, and the shorts have a special feature.

The Adidas Jamaica 2023 kits have been designed by the "world's renowned Wales Bonner label". The jerseys are a "fusion of football, culture, and fashion".

Adidas Jamaica 2023 Shorts

The Adidas Jamaica 2023 kit shorts have pockets on both sides, a feature not commonly seen in traditional football shorts.

Pockets surely add practicality and versatility for everyday wear, but the size of the pockets make them possibly bad for football.

It is important to note that these pockets may only be present in the replica version of the kit, as there is currently no official information or imagery available of the authentic kit. In all images released by Adidas, players are wearing the replica version.

Given the lack of an official announcement from Adidas, it remains unclear if authentic kits without pockets will be available to buy, or at least provided to players.

Currently, we can only confirm that it is very unlikely that Adidas will sell "authentic" Heat.Rdy versions of the Adidas Jamaica 2023 kits.

The marketing strategy employed by Adidas, which places a strong emphasis on the shorts with pockets on the official website, suggests that the company hoping to make it a selling point for the kit.
