Adidas and the South African Football Association have unveiled the South Africa 2026/2027 Home kit, set to be worn during FIFA 2026 World Cup.
The new South Africa jersey retains the traditional yellow base associated with the national team, combined with green detailing on the collar and sleeve cuffs. Three green adidas stripes run along the shoulders. The body features an all over tonal graphic pattern, referencing linguistic diversity through repeated linear motifs integrated into the fabric.
On the chest, the updated SAFA crest is applied alongside the adidas logo, with the authentic version incorporating a lenticular heat applied finish. The South African Football Association emblem appears opposite, completing the front layout. The matching kit includes green shorts with yellow adidas stripes and yellow socks.
The design draws reference to the 2010 South Africa jersey, reinterpreted for the 2026/2027 international cycle with a modern performance cut. Constructed using adidas CLIMACOOL+ technology, the jersey utilises engineered stretch fabric, mesh ventilation zones and perforated shoulder panels to enhance breathability and moisture management during high-intensity play.
The new South Africa football shirt will be worn by both Bafana Bafana and Banyana Banyana, debuting at the FIFA 2026 World Cup and later at WAFCON 2026.
