NIKE have done it again with Nigeria’s new kit.
Back in 2018 the sportswear giant sent punters crazy with the Super Eagles kit for the World Cup, which was widely heralded as one of the most beautiful ever made.

And now there’s a new version – with fans already claiming it has ‘‘has somehow outdone the last one’.
Where can I buy the new Nigeria kit?
NIKE really had a lot to live up to when releasing this brand new Super Eagles design.
Two years ago the original retro green white and black strip sold out in minutes ahead of the tournament in Russia, with hundreds of supporters queueing down the streets of London.
Nike have lived up to the hype with Nigeria’s 2020 “Swoosh” home shirt which fuses the “traditional aesthetic” of an agbada robe with the influence of contemporary football street style.
And fans were once again going wild for the design, with one tweeting: “If there was a world cup for best football kits, Nigeria would probably win every game.”

Another said: “The new Nigeria kit is better than the one everyone was going crazy for in 2018.”
A third added: “I don’t understand why only Nigeria are this creative with their kits. More countries and clubs need to step up their game.”
The kits are set to hit these shores later in the year, with a date yet to be revealed.
Prior to their release in 2018, the last Nike effort racked up an incredible three million pre-orders.
How much will it cost?
NIGERIA are set to don their new standout kits during their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign and at the 2022 World Cup.
With official prices yet to be released, it’s a case of speculation.
But back in 2018, the price of both the home and away shirts upon release were £64.95.
A kids version of the shirt is currently on sale at the Nike store for £35.97.
