adidas released Japan's World Cup kit It's the only adidas' kit without a direct reference from a previous shirt

adidas unveiled the new World Cup kit for Japan, during a big Monday of releases. Unlike most other adidas 2018 World Cup jerseys, which are very closely inspired by specific classics from the 1980s or 90s, the Japan 2018 home shirt features a more generic graphic print that does not derive from any particular jersey the team wore in the past, but instead was announced to be inspired by traditional samurai armor.

Slight darker shorts and socks in the same color as the shirt complete the Adidas Japan 2018 World Cup kit. But the real protagonist of the presentation was the Samurai's armor by adidas.
