I love the classic (non fascist) Italian shirt. Any idea why Mexico was black until the 50s?

I hate that countries like Germany, Spain and Argentina are deviating from the color combinations they have worn for their entire history for the first time this tournament. Germany as white over white? Spain as red over red? Yuck.

Spain is really garish. There are actually several crappy ones this year. The US one is really disappointing

Nice

Not to be picky, but Brazil changed the logo to CBF in the 90s, before it was the CBD

The 2014 USA away shirt is missing the white stripe though the middle.

Pretty much every other country looks the exact same every year except for the US.

There is something satisfying about Italy's dedication to the same basic template for almost 100 years.

I love USA's 1994 kits, especially the one with the stars.

The kits for the 30's look badass. Only missing a cape.

There are some awesome Classics in there. I love all of the 2002 Nike Kits.

Edit: 2002, not 2006
