Super Falcons gets new Kits ahead of World Cup

Pulse Sports reports that Nike unveiled new jerseys for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in July, including the home and away kits for Nigeria’s Super Falcons.

The home jersey is built a luminous green colour similar to that worn by the Super Eagles of Nigeria at the 2002 World Cup, and features the typical Nike collar design in white to represent the country’s major colours.

It also features a unique pattern on the cuffs and socks which Nike says is based on “traditional Nigerian artwork and textiles.”

Nigeria’s second/away kit is a very dark shade of green which is decorated with luminous patterns across its entirety that are made up of “traditional prints” and modern designs that serve as an homage to the team name “Super Falcons”.
