The special Argentine Football Association (AFA) and adidas have unveiled a commemorative edition jersey celebrating their 50-year partnership. These special kits make its debut in the South American FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifier match between Argentina and Peru at Estadio Alberto J. Armando on November 19, 2024 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The retro-inspired design draws from the kit that the Albiceleste wore back in 1974, showcasing the distinctive and traditional Ambient Sky and Cloud White stripes. They’re complemented by a Trefoil logo and a stripped back mid-1970s Argentina crest on the chest, both of which are in gold to celebrate the achievements of the team over the years.
Inside the collar, there is a special graphic with a laurel wreath and the sun symbol of the Argentinean flag with the words 'En el alma y en la piel' (In the soul and on the skin). Above it are the words 50 ANOS, nodding to the 50 years of partnership, while below are three stars to symbolise the three World Cup wins. The AFA logo on the left chest also has a laurel wreath on the outside and 3 stars underneath.
