The Argentina national team home shirt for the 2022 World Cup has been leaked.
Argentina will wear a new shirt for the World Cup. Undefeated with the camouflage home shirt, Adidas has issued a new shirt for the Copa America and Finalissima champions.
With the traditional vertical sky blue and white, Adidas will have their new logo on the shirt. Per Footy Headlines, the shirt will have a new ventilation knit pattern.

For those asking why, it’s a big business, all teams will have new shirts. Every change leads to a new wave of sales. After Copa we didn’t change the design but the added trophy to the front triggered a wave of sales.
As for this design, I love it, it’s kind of similar to the 1990 and 2014 ones. Less blue and more white.
And the shade of blue is beautiful.
For the away shirt, I hope we keep the dark teal color.
Why change the jersey?? We lost 0 games and won copa America and finalissima aswell. This jersey was very good luck for us so why to change?? 🤦♂️
We didnt win all those games via luck. Certainly not tha ugly jersey. Hopefully this new one is a throwback to one of Diegos. What joy to see Messi lift the Quatar cup wearing Diegos 86 design would be.
You can see the entire kit from the source website. Its straight forward, simple but elegant design. I like it. I do prefer black shorts but assuming it will be white.

I doubt it…. Us argentinos are too Superstitious to change our home jersey after two cups in 11 months !
Here’s a comical example –
Sergio Goycochea had to pee.
The goalkeeper had been immense for the Argentine national team throughout the 1990 World Cup, allowing just two goals in the group stage and shutting out Brazil in the first knockout round. So when Argentina’s quarterfinal match against Yugoslavia came down to penalties, no one was more confident. There was just one problem.
Goycochea had to pee.
So Argentina’s outfield players formed a phalanx around their keeper, allowing him to urinate just off the field and protected from tens of thousands of prying eyes. At the time, Goycochea insisted nobody noticed. At any rate, he ultimately saved two of Yugoslavia’s penalties and Argentina advanced to the semifinals against Italy.
And then a curious thing happened. The game against Italy went to penalties. Goycochea again urinated on the field while surrounded by his odd praetorian guard, even though this time he didn’t really need to. And for a second straight match, Argentina advanced in the World Cup on penalties. By the same score.
For most, this would seem to be either a hilarious coincidence or a case of serious neurosis. Goycochea chose to empty his bladder on the field of play before a penalty shootout in a World Cup semifinal because he believed it gave his team a better chance of winning. And the fact that Argentina ultimately won only reinforced his superstition.
Goycochea told The Guardian, “You know, by the rules of the game, until the match finishes you cannot abandon the field. And if you have any necessary human urges, you have to go on the field. So that is what happened against Yugoslavia (in the 1990 World Cup quarter-finals). At the end of the game I really had to go so I had no choice. But we won, so then when the semi-final against Italy went to penalties I did it again – and it worked! So from that moment on I did it before every shoot-out. It was my lucky charm.”
If any country would buy into Goycochea’s methodology with a fervor that transcends the moment, it is Argentina.
Everybody is superstitious when the stakes are high.
If you think you are not, one day you will realize.
Not everyone is superstitious my friend.
I’m superstitious with few things but i’m also aware that it’s absurd. I don’t raise a glass to cheer if it doesn’t have alcohol or i knock on wood for goodluck or I wear my argentina kit for EVERY game. I do it more for fun as opposed to thinking it has any real impact on my life.
You are talking about things that are not important. I am talking about when the stakes are high… if you think something is going to decide your life. My wife and I wore the same clothes to all doctors appointments during her pregnancy, the same clothes when we found out she is pregnant. I am a doctor and she is an echocardiogram technician, we both know how body works. But that baby was more important than anything else in the world and it made me think how stupid I was to make fun of people praying to get healed from cancer.
It’s strange to talk about this on this site, but our brain is wired from million years ago to follow patterns, and associate things with each other, even if it doesn’t physically change things directly, it in indirectly affects your mood and hormones, then your body, and other people around you.
Maybe that silly thing goyco did boosted his self confidence, and the Italian players saw that and made them scared. Who knows.
the placebo effect is fascinating indeed
It’s the hard work and unity of our team that creates these superstitions. Utilise the opportunities well the cup would be surely ours.
