It is very uncommon for a Nike football kit to rip. What is odd is that it happened with the brand-new third kit, which has a different knitting pattern than the other shirts of the 23-24 season. It remains to be seen if it's a one-off accident or if we will see more ripped Nike 2023-2024 third kits.

Indeed, the knit pattern of the Nike 23-24 Elite Team Third Kits is mainly vertical, which may increase the risk of tearing.

Regarding torn jerseys, we can mention Castore, who already had a number of torn jerseys this season. For Castore, it is certain that there is a general problem with their kits in the 2023-2024 season.
