Mexico Ruins Retro EQT Jacket with Sponsor Placement
The Adidas Mexico 2026 World Cup EQT track jacket has officially made its real-world debut, but the on-player reality has left many fans disappointed, as highlighted by Tigres and Mexico kit experts @TigersJersey.
While the core design faithfully recreates the iconic 1990s Equipment aesthetic with its bold black, green, white, and red color-blocking, the Mexican Football Federation has plastered the front of the garment with corporate sponsors. The logos for AT&T, Amazon, Coca-Cola, and Caliente.mx have been heavily applied across the midsection, disrupting the 3 bars.
This is surely because of sponsor guidelines and contracts, but they should have find a better solution here.
