Nigeria to Return to the Three Stripes
Nike has served as Nigeria's kit manufacturer since taking over in 2015, crafting some of the most culturally impactful and bestselling national team collections of the modern era, spearheaded by the iconic 2018 Naija launch. Nike launched Nigeria's 2026 shirts in spring 2026.
A move to Adidas from 2027 represents a homecoming for the Super Eagles. Adidas previously supplied Nigeria during some of the nation's finest footballing eras, including their historic 1994 World Cup debut in the United States and their 2013 Africa Cup of Nations triumph.
