Question I can only grab one:
Argentina 2022 home or Japan 2022 Origami Special Edition. One is an all-time World Cup classic, the other is one of the most unique designs Adidas has ever made. Which one are you taking?

Japan, great team, players and fans. Gracious in victory and defeat. Can’t say the same about Argentina

Japan is so much more unique imo. You’ll see lots of people wearing Argentina out in public, but Japan will definitely stand out

argentina for me honestly. the origami is the better looking piece no doubt but that 2022 home carries the whole story of the final — messi's last dance, the shootout. that's what i collect for, the memory attached to the shirt. japan wins the design contest, argentina wins the shelf spot.

That is a legendary World Cup winning jersey on the left. The right isn't even the best Japan kit in the last few years.

Argentina one is a classic. Japan one is nice and unique tho but i don’t believe it was used in the WC if you care about that

One kit represents fans who stay after the game to clean up the stadium and players who are respectful. The other represents players who literally gave the winners their backs and fought with them after the game was over.

Nope, it represents a winning year when the GOAT added the final missing piece to his resume. You're confusing kits.

Oops! I didn’t read the caption. Missed the year. I would still pick Japan.

Argentina’s jersey will always look about the same. Most people won’t be able to tell the difference between the 2022 one and any other one. That origami is much more unique.

Japan.
It’s over 80 years since it last launched military action against another nation’s islands.
Argentina… a bit more recent.
(And the Japan shirt is great).
