PUMA has officially released the Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) home and away kits for the nation’s FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign, presenting two distinct designs that draw from the country’s cultural identity and football heritage.
The collection marks a significant moment for Les Éléphants as they prepare to compete on one of sport’s biggest stages.
The World Cup 2026 home shirt arrives in Côte d’Ivoire’s signature orange, a colour long associated with the nation’s football identity. Rather than a plain design, the fabric features an all-over tonal animal-print texture that adds visual depth without detracting from the kit’s bold simplicity.
Green trims line the collar and the side panels, referencing the tricolor of the Ivorian flag. The white squad numbering is rendered in a chunky, outlined font with a retro quality that complements the overall aesthetic.
The Côte d’Ivoire World Cup 2026 PUMA away jersey takes a markedly different direction. Built on a white base, it features an intricate all-over botanical print composed of palm trees and large, radiating sun-like floral motifs rendered in soft orange and mint green.
The pattern transitions from a more structured vertical arrangement at the top to a fuller, more expressive composition across the body of the shirt. The squad numbers and lettering on the back appear in a warm brown tone, as does the number on the front — a detail that ties into the earthy palette of the design.
Both kits were worn for the first time competitively during Côte d’Ivoire’s international matches in March 2026, when the team faced Scotland and South Korea. The appearances gave the strips their competitive debut ahead of the summer tournament. Côte d’Ivoire have been drawn into Group — alongside Ecuador, Germany, and Curaçao for the group phase of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
