The Nike Portugal Era Comes to an End - Full Nike Portugal Kit History
Dec 31, 2024, by Phan Tich Giay
- End of Partnership: December 31, 2024, marks the end of Nike's 28-year partnership with Portugal's football team, with Puma taking over as the kit supplier starting January 1, 2025.
- Nike's Kit History: Nike designed 16 home and 16 away kits for Portugal since 1997, including 15 men's kits and a 2023 women's kit.
- Puma Kit Launch: The first Puma-designed Portugal kits will be released on January 6, 2025.
Update: Today is the last day of 2024 and also the last day of the Nike Portugal era, as Puma will officially replace Nike as Portugal's kit maker from tomorrow, 1 January 2025. The FPF (Federação Portuguesa de Futebol) has therefore published an article to pay tribute to the 28-year partnership between the two sides, the iconic kits and the titles won together.

No More Nike: Adidas Croatia 2026 Training Kits Revealed
Following their switch from Nike to Adidas, Croatia's new training kit set for 2026 have been unveiled in the latest training camp for youth teams' goalkeepers.
However from what we've seen, both of the new jerseys are simply from Adidas Tiro 26 League template range, using default black and grey color choices. These are very likely just temporary options for the mean time, until the actual designs with probably bespoke colorways are officially released.
What do you think of the new Adidas Croatia 2026 training kits? Let us know in the comments below.
