Adidas Mexico 2026 Third Kit Restock Features Upside Down Pattern
- Manufacturing Flaw: A bizarre manufacturing flaw has affected the recent restock of the Adidas Mexico 2026 third long-sleeve jersey.

A bizarre manufacturing flaw has affected the recent restock of the Adidas Mexico 2026 third long-sleeve jersey. The sleek black kit, designed with a subtle Aztec-inspired repeating graphic pattern intended to spell out "MX" across the fabric, has begun arriving in the hands of customers with an upside-down print reading "WX" instead. Huge thanks to @Caplover83 for the spot.
WX Instead of MX (Upside Down) Adidas Mexico 2026 Third Kit Hit by Manufacturing Error
Multiple collectors and buyers who ordered the high-end authentic long-sleeve version directly from Adidas have taken to social media to share the defect. In many cases, the misprinted "WX" pattern appears across the main body, the sleeves, or both panels, while standard replica and short-sleeve releases carry the correct "MX" typography.
With the authentic long-sleeve shirt retailing for around £130 ($160), the quality control slip has left many supporters frustrated, as substantial batches from the latest restock seem to carry the upside-down pattern.
Adidas will surely offer replacements to affected buyers.
