Australian World Cup Kits

Australia World Cup 2022 KitsWorld Cup 2022 – Australia qualified to the 2022 Qatar World Cup after winning against Peru in a play-off phase that determined whether AFC or CONMEBOL would secure another slot. Having been grouped with France, Denmark and Tunisia, Australia came into the Qatar World Cup as one of the underdog teams. Their chances of moving past the group stage were viewed as getting a win with Tunisia and a draw at least with either France and Denmark. The bespoke yellow-orange base of the home shirt was designed with a spraypaint-like visuals, while the away shirt had a plain look of dark blue with teal accents.

Australia World Cup 2018 KitsWorld Cup 2018 – Much of the attention on the home kit was directed towards the sleeves, which were designed with wavy lines in black. The graphic symbolically represented the Socceroos’ captain’s call for support to their fans in their 2005 World Cup qualificiation, driving up attendance in their stadiums that created a sea of gold. The sharp points on the 2005 kit were then represented by the lime yellow diagonal stripings on the dark green away shirt. After producing valiant stands against France and Denmark, Australia lost 2-0 against Peru to exit 2018 in the group stage.

Australia World Cup 2014 KitsWorld Cup 2014 – Despite crashing out in the early stages, Australia was praised for their efforts in a tough group draw that included 2010 finalists the Netherlands and Spain. The squad wore smart-looking, collared kits, which were yellow-orange with green for the home and obsidian blue with yellow-orange for the away.

Australia World Cup 2010 KitsWorld Cup 2010 – The 2010 Socceroo kits featured a block design, which was dark green on the sleeves and bespoke yellow on the trunk, separated by a white chest stripe. The away shirt had the colours in blue, greyish blue, and home kit-yellow, respectively. The colour combination on the alternate kit made it comparable to a Boca Junior shirt. Australia was able to have triple-1 W/D/L record, but the 4 points was not enough to progress due to the inferior goal difference caused by their 4-0 defeat to Germany.

Australia World Cup 2006 KitsWorld Cup 2006 – Australia’s move to the AFC in 2005 proved to be a catalyst for the nation to end its 32 years of WC drought, sparkling their run of consecutive appearances since then. With their 3-1 win in their Japan opener, the team made history as those were the first goals scored by the country in the tournament. They ended up with a R16 exit with a loss against eventual-champions Italy. The Socceroos wore their yellow home kit with minimal green trims on the sleeves (the same template was used for the navy with yellow alternate shirt).

Australia World Cup 1974 KitsWorld Cup 1974 – The yellow-orange that was associated with the Socceroos began with the home kit worn in Australia’s first WC in 1974. Made by Umbro, the shirt had a green repeating pattern of the Umbro logo along the sleeves and shoulders. The same could be said with the dark green secondary kit, which had the design in bright yellow. Australia failed to score a goal and only mustered a single draw, causing them to exit in the group stage and start three decades worth of wait for their next WC.
