Flooding the scene with their international away shirts, adidas have delivered in the strongest of styles. Japan are the next nation to take on their away colours ahead of upcoming friendlies with Mali and Ukraine this weekend.

Taking inspiration from the nation’s streetwear scene, the Japan away shirt for the 2018 World Cup is a modern interpretation of the 1991 home jersey. The kit features a bold graphic and a sign-off on the collar which celebrates important moments of the nation’s footballing history.

As with the rest of the new adidas international away shirts, the Japan design is stunningly executed with a mixture of modern innovation and throwback inspiration. The perfect replica combination. Expect to see a whole lot of these in Russia this summer, complete with smudged face-paint.
