"It's almost the end of the road for Adidas as Germany's trusted kit suppliers, being in a deal with Die Mannschaft since 1954. The nation is switching to Nike next year so any kit that Adidas releases this year will probably be one of its last."
"It's not bad, but nowhere near what the leaked kit was: the black one with German flag accents on the collar and sleeves. That would've been a banging kit to sign off 72 years of partnership."
Adidas has supplied Germany's national football team since 1954, but this partnership concludes next year when Nike becomes the new kit supplier. The new home kit, releasing March 20, represents one of Adidas's final designs for the nation. While the released kit is acceptable, it falls short of expectations compared to the leaked black alternative featuring German flag accents on the collar and sleeves. That unreleased design would have provided a more memorable conclusion to seven decades of collaboration. The decision highlights a significant shift in German football's commercial partnerships.
