"During the recent international break, we observed a minor issue with our Nike national team kits, most noticeable around the shoulder seam. Performance is unaffected, but the overall aesthetic is not where it needs to be."
"We always hold ourselves and our products to the highest standards and this fell short. We're working quickly to make this right for players and fans, because every kit should reflect the care, precision and pride that the game deserves."
Nike is investigating a design issue with World Cup shirts, particularly noticeable around the shoulder seams of kits worn by teams like England, France, and Uruguay. A spokesperson acknowledged the issue, stating that while performance remains unaffected, the aesthetic does not meet standards. The problem is evident in both 'match' and 'stadium' shirts, leading to concerns from fans. Nike has produced kits for multiple national teams and aims to rectify the situation, emphasizing their commitment to quality and performance technology for the tournament.
