World Cup hosts Qatar unveiled their national team jerseys yesterday for the football’s showpiece event, which will be held across the country from November 20 to December 18.
Designed by Nike, the Qatari home kit combines desert maroon with white serrated trim to mirror the Qatari flag. The crest on the upper chest highlights Qatar's host nation status. The away kit evokes the coastline of Qatar while a subtle string of pearls graphic overlay nods to the history of pearl-diving in the coastal atolls. In motion, the kit is mean to resemble a sandstorm swirling in the arid sun.
The national team kits and training kits are underpinned by Dri-FIT ADV, Nike’s apparel material platform. Match kits and training apparel combine rigorous data with comprehensive computational design based on a 4D-model to create a cutting-edge, lightweight kit.
The new seamless kit is engineered pixel by pixel to provide precise reinforcement and venting for distraction-free play. The kits’ and training kits’ new, distinct aesthetic also feature fluid cut lines that match throughout the shirt and shorts, even as the athlete is in motion.
Qatar open their World Cup campaign with a Group A game against Ecuador on November 20 at the Al Bayt Stadium. They will also play the Netherlands and Senegal in the group stage.
