The 2026 FIFA World Cup away kits might be even more interesting than the home kits. This is where brands take risks, push creative boundaries, and sometimes completely miss. Adidas dropped 24 away jerseys featuring the retro trefoil logo, Nike brought 16, and Puma has 10 (Czech Republic and Iceland only have home kits so far). That gives us 50 away kits to rank.
We already ranked every 2026 World Cup jersey overall and every home kit. This ranking focuses only on away kits. All images are courtesy of Nike, Adidas, and Puma.
50. Qatar (Adidas): F
There is just nothing here. White kit, maroon accents, no pattern, no personality. This is the most boring away kit in the entire 2026 World Cup. It looks like a plain training top you would grab off a clearance rack.
49. Algeria (Adidas): D-
The two-tone green is not it. The collar is strange, and the overall look just feels off. It looks like two different jerseys stitched together.
48. Egypt (Puma): D
White with a subtle version of the same pyramid pattern from the home kit. Even more forgettable than the home. Egypt deserves better.
47. China (Nike): D
The away is somehow even more boring than the home. Nothing here grabs your attention.
46. Poland (Nike): C-
The red away is marketed as a "future classic" but right now it's just plain. Nothing about this makes you want to pick it up.
45. Turkey (Nike): C-
The white away is clean but completely forgettable. Turkey's colors should have more presence than this.
44. Saudi Arabia (Adidas): C+
The white base with gold and green detailing is clean. But there's just not enough color going on. The definition of playing it safe.
43. Switzerland (Puma): C
The green topographic map design inspired by Swiss passports sounds cool on paper, but it ends up looking more like a goalkeeper jersey than a proper away kit.
42. South Korea (Nike): C
The violet away is fine. Just fine. South Korea has had more interesting away kits in the past.
41. Canada (Nike): C
This is where Canada's set falls apart. For a country hosting the World Cup, the away kit doesn't bring enough to the table.
40. Peru (Adidas): B-
The colorful neon logo on the trefoil and crest pop against the black base. But outside of those accent colors, the jersey itself is pretty plain.
39. Greece (Adidas): B-
The deep blue pops, but the design doesn't do enough. Looks more like a good t-shirt than an actual World Cup kit.
38. Chile (Adidas): B-
The flowering desert concept is cool on paper, but the pink floral pattern on white doesn't quite translate to a soccer kit.
37. Ukraine (Adidas): B-
Blue and yellow is always strong, but we don't love the specific shade of blue they went with here. Not bad, just not great.
36. Colombia (Adidas): B-
The teal wave pattern with yellow trim has a cool vibe. But nothing about this kit really grabs you. Colombia has done better.
35. Germany (Adidas): B-
The navy blue with aqua accents is fine, but Germany's older away jerseys were better. The retro trefoil looks good on it, though.
34. USA (Nike): B-
For a World Cup on home soil, the away kit is bland. We expected something with more punch from a host nation's second kit.
33. New Zealand (Puma): B-
White with a swirl pattern. Simple, clean, nothing flashy. Gets the job done for a team making their second World Cup appearance.
32. Paraguay (Puma): B-
The dark blue tie-dye pattern is bold but doesn't work as well as the home kit. The home carries Paraguay's set.
31. Uruguay (Nike): B-
The wings pattern is fine but the home is the one you want. The away doesn't do enough to stand on its own.
30. Nigeria (Nike): B-
The green-to-volt flame pattern is bold and the colors are vibrant. The design is busy, but Nigeria's colors are so good they make it work.
29. Australia (Nike): B-
The coral-to-dark-green gradient is the standout of Australia's set. It's different, bold, and it works.
28. Slovenia (Nike): C+
Similar vibe to the home. Not bad, but doesn't stand out enough in a field of 50 away kits.
27. Senegal (Puma): B
Deep green with a diamond pattern down the center. It doesn't hit as hard as the home kit, but it's a solid away jersey.
26. Austria (Puma): B
The marble pattern inspired by Vienna's cafe culture with soft blue and gold lines is sharp. The away is the better of Austria's two kits.
25. South Africa (Adidas): B
South Africa's green and gold is iconic, and this away kit with the woven pattern and polo collar delivers. The Protea crest in gold is beautiful.
24. Northern Ireland (Adidas): B
The mint green on a white base is sharp. The diagonal lines add texture without being too busy. Way better than the boring home kit.
23. Wales (Adidas): B
The cream base with the abstract dragon pattern and green/red shoulder stripes is solid. Nothing special, but it looks good.
22. Hungary (Adidas): B
Clean and classic. The white base with red collar and sleeve detailing is simple but effective. The 125th anniversary badge is a nice detail.
21. UAE (Adidas): B
The red geometric pattern is bold and the white trim keeps it clean. For a team that didn't qualify, this is one of the better looking kits in the whole batch.
20. Sweden (Adidas): B
The royal blue with the wavy pattern and gold trim has a nice retro 70s feel. Works better from a distance than up close.
19. Scotland (Adidas): B
That salmon red with the purple pinstripes is one of the more interesting color combos in the entire Adidas batch. The retro v-neck collar ties it together.
18. Mexico (Adidas): B
The white away with green and red trim on the collar and sleeves is clean. The subtle Grecas pattern is a nice nod to Mexican architecture. A solid away kit for a World Cup host.
17. Argentina (Adidas): B
The black base with the blue swirling floral pattern is eye-catching. But with Argentina's history of iconic away kits, this one doesn't quite reach legendary status. Good, not great.
16. Croatia (Nike): B
The darker blue checkered look is clean and understated. The away is the better of Croatia's two kits.
15. Morocco (Puma): B+
White with gold geometric patterns that feel almost hand-drawn. The gold detailing on this one is really nice.
14. Ghana (Puma): B+
The golden yellow with a kente-inspired pattern is strong. Both of Ghana's kits feel authentically Ghanaian, and the away continues that.
13. England (Nike): B+
The away edges out the home for us. England keeps things classic without being boring, and this away kit is proof.
12. Netherlands (Nike): B+
The all-white with that orange fade is sharp. A strong complement to the iconic orange home kit.
11. Curacao (Adidas): B+
Curacao's first ever World Cup, and the pastel yellow with pink, turquoise, and orange stripes is fun and different. The retro trefoil looks perfect on this one.
10. Japan (Adidas): B+
The rainbow vertical stripes on the off-white base are clean. Each of the 12 colored lines represents team unity, with the bold red stripe in the middle representing the fans and the rising sun. One of the most thoughtful designs in the entire batch.
9. Ivory Coast (Puma): A-
The tropical floral pattern in white, orange, and mint green goes in a completely different direction from the home kit. Puma described it as celebrating Ivory Coast's streetwear influence, and we see it.
8. Portugal (Puma): A
The teal and white ocean wave pattern with the chevron shape is one of the best away kits from any brand this cycle. It's bold, it's different, and it still feels distinctly Portuguese.
7. Costa Rica (Adidas): A-
The tropical blue and pink pattern inspired by the Toucan and Costa Rican rainforests is bold, colorful, and completely unique. Costa Rica didn't qualify for the World Cup, but they won the away kit game.
6. Belgium (Adidas): A-
The pink and blue surrealist art pattern is a tribute to Belgian artist Rene Magritte, and it works. This kit takes a risk and it pays off. Wearable as a fashion piece, not just a soccer jersey.
5. Spain (Adidas): A-
The off-white with burgundy and gold trim looks premium. The subtle pattern adds texture without being busy. One of the best away kits Adidas has ever made for La Roja.
4. Venezuela (Adidas): A
Venezuela takes the top Adidas spot. The white base is minimal, but the pops of yellow, red, and blue in the three stripes and gold detailing on the collar are perfect. Understated, sophisticated, and the retro block lettering on the crest ties the whole thing together.
3. Norway (Nike): A
The all-black Viking warrior kit is aggressive and clean. Paired with Norway's incredible home kit, this makes them one of the strongest overall packages from Nike. The dark palette is a bold choice and it works.
2. Brazil (Nike): A
The darker palette through the Jordan Brand collab adds something different to Brazil's identity. The colors still pop in that way that only Nike seems to pull off. A strong complement to the iconic yellow home kit.
1. France (Nike): A+
The best away kit in the 2026 World Cup, and it's not close. That green jersey inspired by the Statue of Liberty is the most creative thing any brand did this cycle. The patina color is unique, it tells a story connecting France to the United States where this World Cup is being held, and it's going to look incredible on the pitch this summer. This is the kit everyone will remember from 2026. France wins.
