Host nation Brazil- WC KIT |
Africa's
5 representatives have all released their World Cup Home and Away kit
for the 2014 edition of the tournament which is slated to hold in
Brazil in less than days days to go and they are not looking bad at
all.
Although
they all look good, I would have to give it to Ghana, their 2014
World Cup kit is exceptionally beautiful and authentic, it features
some African prints and designs but its simple enough to be described
as classy.
World
Cup 2014 Kits-Africa (In alphabetical order)
-Algeria
representing north Africa as they make their 4th World
Cup appearance this year they will be playing against Belgium, Russia
and South Korea in Group H in Brazil. Algeria are currently battling to make an
impact in Africa after they were knocked out in the 2013 Nations Cup,
but with the World Cup comes the hope of high performances and only
time will tell now.
The Algerian Greens will be heading to the World
Cup with their Puma made jerseys, their Home kit features flash green as second color and a simple round collar while the sleeve cuffs are
light green. The jersey also has a light green Puma logo at the front
of the kit. Their 2014 WC Away kit bears very similar features as
their home jersey only this one is mainly light green with white
applications.
-Cameroon
will be making their 7th World Cup appearance this year in
Group A making them the the only African side with the most
appearances at the World Cup. Several friction in the team has
contributed to the Lions poor performance in the past four years, but
this year, with Eto'o back, we can only hope for the best.
Cameroon
premiered their 2014 World Cup kit which was made by PUMA in their
warm-up match against Portugal on March 5th. Their new
WC Home kit features cave painting on front of the jersey and the
Puma logo is placed in the center of the shirt, the sleeve cuffs
also features the cave painting design. Their WC Away kit features
similar designs as the home jersey only this one has yellow as the
background color and red applications. The patterns are not made
visible on this one, and it also has some green in it.
-Ghana
made it all the way to the quarterfinals in the last World Cup appearance before
they were denied a semi-final spot, but they are back and determined.
With a host some of the best mid-fielders including Michael Essien
and Kevin Boateng who recently returned to the team, the Black
Stars may actually become more successful in their 3rd WC
appearance.
They will be representing their country in Brazil 2014 in
their Group G with a kit made by Puma who remain their shirt
producers since 2005. Their 2014 WC Home kit is quite unique and
beautiful, it infuses a lot of the Ghanaian culture. The jersey has a
white background and features the Kente cloth design around the
collar, the design which is characterized by multicolored patterns of
bright colors, and geometric shapes is also seen on the sleeve cuffs
of the jersey. Unlike their Home kit, the 2014 WC Away jersey comes in bright red with large front graphics with 'Black Stars' inscriptions.
It also features a simple round collar with a yellow Puma logo and
the sleeve cuffs designed with bright star patterns.
-Ivory
Coast, Africa's favorite are heading to their third World Cup this
year in Group C and while this may be the last chance for some of the
team's top players, they have not been quite successful in last two
attempts; failing to get past the first round each time. The
Elephants are currently the number 1 team in the whole of Africa.
Like Cameroon, the Elephant wore their brand new World Cup kit which
was also made by Puma during their friendly against Belgium in March.
Their 2014 WC Home kit is made more simple with a round collar with
the main color orange. The shirt features cave paintings on the
sleeves including the graphics of an elephant. Their WC Away kit is similar to the home design but differs in color. The Away jersey is
green and features the same template as the home kit.
-Nigeria
will be heading to their 5th World Cup this summer after a very
successful year in 2013 . The Super Eagles made their first World Cup appearance in 1994 and although they bowed out of the competition in
second round, their World Cup kit was quite phenomenal, the kit which
was complete with patterned shoulder panel was eventually tagged the
best World Cup kit in USA '94. For this summer's World Cup, the Super
Eagles will play against Argentina, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Iran in
their Group F.
The new Super Eagles 2014 World Cup Away kit is based
on Adidas Regista 14 template and is mainly white with dark and light
green accents. Their 2014 World Cup Home jersey is based on Adidas
Condivo 14 kit template, the front of the jersey features small
darker green pinstripes while the sleeves are divided in one light
green and one dark green part. The V-collar features both green
colors that is found in the sleeve cuffs.
