You can now cop Nigeria’s 2020/21 Nike Jerseys

Building upon the learnings from the successful 2018 Nigeria Collection, Nike undertook deep cultural immersions and collaborated with each federation to ensure the designs truly resonated.

In 2018, Naija changed the game with a collection for the ages that set a new standard for how Nike approaches federation design.

Their 2020 kit which was revealed earlier this year fuses the traditional aesthetic of an agbada robe with modern football design.

The kit’s pattern was hand-drawn and is highly symbolic of Nigerian heritage with nods to nobility and family. Nigeria’s crest is placed centrally on the chest with a Swoosh underneath it. The player names and numbers integrate the eagle feather into the application. “Naija” appears inside the neck of jersey and on the back of the socks in a new typeface.

The away kit is inspired by Onaism, a traditional artistic movement central to Nigerian design and craft represented in the trim details. An eagle feather aesthetic, creatively distorted, continuously repeats in ascending size to create a visual impact. The collar has a slight V overlap with a thicker overlap in the back. Both the collar and the sleeves feature a slight nick at the mid-point.

The new 2020 jerseys are now available to buy on Nike.com, priced at R1699,95.
