In just a few short weeks, the FIFA Women’s World Cup will get underway down under. No doubt the biggest iteration of the World Cup in the history of the women’s side of the game, it comes at a time when interest in the game is at an all time high. And us Aussies couldn’t be prouder to show off our country to the best women's footballers in the world. With 32 teams arriving across Australia and New Zealand, getting down to support high quality football has never been more enticing. But of course, it's an even better chance to get your hands on one of the new jerseys for the teams.
The world of football has long been the source of inspiration for fashion designers. Streetwear has embraced the oversized retro jerseys, just as the runway has been home to sportswear-inflicted collections over the years. In the UK, Martine Rose and Grace Wales Bonner have had football-inspired jerseys feature prominently, with Wales Bonner even designing the Jamaican jerseys for the World Cup.
Now, it’s a bit more than the re-emergence of Blokecore. Put a little more thought into throwing on a jersey with some stonewashed jeans and a set of Gazelles. The effort around cultural identity that has been put into each of the jerseys opens up the possibility for a little more thought when choosing your fit for matchday.
We’ve rounded up six of our favourite jerseys released for the tournament, and how we’d style them down at the ground. Pint in hand optional.
