Design
In terms of design, the Adidas 2024 authentic and replica kits are extremely similar. The only differences are the new Adidas 2024 badge and the shirt material name (Heat.Dry & Aeroready) on the tail of the shirt.
Technology
The new authentic and replica Adidas 2024 football kits have all had their materials changed compared to the Adidas 2022 kits.
Adidas has changed many of the materials used in the authentic 2024 kits to provide a lighter design and improved breathability.
Logos & 3 Stripes - Lightweight Ft. Metallic Effect
The logo and three stripes on the Adidas 2024 authentic kits have been made lighter to improve performance. This new technology has given the logo and three stripes a shiny metallic effect.
Meanwhile, the logo and three stripes on the replica Adidas 2024 kit are still made of fabric and embroidered as before.
Collar - New Adhesive Tape
The authentic Adidas 2024 kit also has another interesting feature: the inner neckline comes with adhesive tape.
New Authentic Badge
The Adidas 2024 authentic kit has the Adidas authentic badge on the bottom right of each Adidas shirt. The Adidas 2024 replica kit will not have this badge.
New Fabric
The authentic Adidas 2024 kit will feature a new, likely better ultra-breathable fabric with the 2024 national team kits.
The 'i' patterns on the authentic Adidas Italy 2024 kit also have deeper markings than the replica Adidas Italy 2024 kit.
The name of the Adidas 2024 kit material remains unchanged:
- Adidas 2024 authentic kit: Heat.Dry
- Adidas 2024 replica kit: Aeroready
New Template For Side/Back Panel
The authentic Adidas 2024 football kit will feature a new distinctive panel technology called 'NXT LVL Air Flow' to ensure good breathability. Meanwhile, the replica Adidas 2024 kit will feature a mesh design on the side and the side cut-out will have a small round hole design, also ensuring breathability.
