World Cup kits: France’s 2010 adidas shirt leaked

france-world-cup-2010-adidas-shirt-leaked

This is a leaked shot of France’s new home kit for 2010, according to www.footballshirtculture.com – so if the French beat the Rep. of Ireland in next month’s playoffs, this is the shirt that Franck Ribery and co. will be wearing in South Africa.

Meh. I’m not a big fan. The ‘three slash’ chest detailing seems like an unnecessary afterthought, and it clashes with the retro styling of the shoulder stripes (ooh, get me!). I assume it’s partly a tribute to the classic kit sported by Michel Platini in the mid-Eighties, but somehow it’s not a patch on that.

What do you think?

    i don’t understand why the french, for all their “sophistication and style”, always have such ugly kits.

  2. Chringle says:

    Would’ve looked classy without the ‘ribcage’ detail on the front.

  3. Cullo says:

    wont be seen in south africa anyway so who cares!

  4. Ollie says:

    Cullo, I see what you did there – like your confidence!

  5. Andrew says:

    That’s absolutely horrible. I’d say it’s on par with the Chelsea bicycle kit or Bolton’s monstrosity.

  6. Cullo says:

    International superstars such as glenn whelan and keith andrews will show henry and benzema how its done!!

  11. kaya says:

    Looks like a strange combination of cat scratch fever and their “look into my eyes” hypnosis white jersey from 2006.

  16. Benny says:

  24. Ramon says:

    ugly but smart (if adverse players comment the look during the match (stromboscopic effects for penalties shots, well done raymond)

  25. John T says:

    What’s that chicken doing on the shirt? This shirt would great on coach watching the Republic of Ireland on TV ( SA 2010).

    Frenchie GO GO GO!!!
    We can do it!

    Cheers

    This is the last shirt from Adidas, at least until 2018. Nike has bought the rights for the 2010-2018 period for 42,6 MILLION EUROS A YEAR + BONUSES (yeah that’s the world record).
    Here, Adidas’ three lines are everywhere. Perhaps some stragegy to make the Nike shirts, which can sometimes lack personality, be hated even more and Adidas be reclaimed.

  28. olivier says:

    i am french and this kit doesn’t matter since We’ll be beaten by ireland 3-0 at croke park and france will win 2-0 in Paris….mark my predictions.

  29. Dave says:

    Not keen on this one and im sure the Irish will truly hate it after Henrys shenanigans.

  30. While I have admired Adidas for a long while, I feel that just recently as a business they have gone off the boil. Their design is not what it was and IME, the standard of the manufacture has gone downhill. They used to be the best, today they’re just the cheapest trainers.
