Every 2022 World Cup kit from ‘monstrosity’ England strip to awful Portugal shirt that Cristiano Ronaldo will wear
THE World Cup starts this weekend and all the nation's kits are released with some fans in love with the designs... but other shirts have been labelled 'diabolical'.
It's time to take a look at all the strips making their way to Qatar this month.
England's new kit has been worn in two Nations League games to mixed reviews from supporters. Additionally, Cristiano Ronaldo may not be happy with Portugal's as it's been dubbed 'awful'.
Group A
Qatar
The host nation are sponsored by Nike - they won the rights to make the Qatar kit weeks before it was announced they would be hosting the tournament.
The colour of the home shirt appears slightly more red than the maroon shade used in the country's flag.
Ecuador
There has been controversy regarding Ecuador before they've even got on the plane to Qatar.
Chile wanted to take Ecuador's place at the World Cup due to them potentially fielding an ineligible player in qualifying but FIFA have rejected the Chileans' appeal.

Senegal
Puma have designed a new kit for the African Cup of Nations holders.
They have used their template away with the box and shirt number in the middle - it is something fans will have to get used to as the design is seen on a number of nation's shirt at this year's World Cup.
The Lions have a number of players with Premier League links like ex-Liverpool ace Sadio Mane.
Holland
Of course, it's orange, but a slightly different shade and the away sees Nike use their template with the different colour around the neck.
Louis van Gaal is back in charge of the national side for his third spell and the Dutch haven't lost a match since he was re-appointed.
Group B
England
The release of England's kit did not go as planned as images appeared online when they shouldn't have after the launch was delayed due to the death of the Queen.
The Three Lions home shirt is not to everyone's taste with some describing it as looking like a Sports Direct knock-off.
Some are discontent with the blue shoulders with one supporter saying online: "Shocking, never been a fan of England using blue - our kit should only be using red & white."
Another responded happier with the away shirt: "How can you create an awful home shirt and yet one of the most beautiful away ones at the same time?";
More reacted: "When Kane lifts the trophy it better be in the red kit not that other monstrosity."
England get their World Cup campaign underway versus Iran on November 21st.

Iran
Local brand Majid are in charge of the Iranian kit.
Both home and away shirts have the same style with a green 'swoosh'.
USA
America's away kit certainly catches the eye with the dye pattern on it.
But their form also has fans talking - they have won just two of their last seven games - failing to score in four of them.
Wales
Gareth Bale will lead Wales out in Qatar in these kits, which many are a fan of.
These red and white strips will surely be iconic especially if Robert Page's men can go far in the competition.
Group C
Argentina
Argentina debuted a black away kit for the first time in their history at the last World Cup but they return to their classic colours this year.
It is likely to be Lionel Messi's final chance to lift the biggest trophy in football and they have incredibly not lost a match since 2019.
Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia's kit is manufactured by Nike. The simple design may look nice but most predict we won't see it for too long.
They are one of the least backed teams to get out the group stage.
Although they could prove tough to beat with an impressive clean sheet record.
Mexico
Adidas were in charge of making Mexico's kit and the home is green as it has been since the 1950s.
The away is one of the most eye-catching making it's way to the World Cup and it has been inspired by the 'Quetzalcoatl' or 'Feathered Serpent' mythical creature.
You may also spot the new badge that was modernised last year.
Poland
Nike have designed a clean looking jersey for both Poland's home and away kit.
The subtle design around the shoulders and sleeves prevent it looking overly plain.
Group D
France
The French are the World Cup holders after winning in Russia back in 2018.
Their kit is kept simple as they aim to retain their crown.
Denmark
Hummel are the manufacturers of the Danes' kit at the approaching tournament and they have created a unique monochrome look.
It inspired by the shirt worn when Denmark won the Euros in 1992.
Tunisia
Tunisia's kit is made by Kappa and is a surprise hit.
Kappa kept the kit hidden well with no leaks found online. The home is red and the away white.
Tunisia have already caused controversy after being slammed by Brazil manager Tite for trying to injure Neymar in a friendly.
Group E
Spain
The 2010 winners may not be as feared in 2022 as they once were but Spain are still a team that could go all the way in Qatar.
Their blue away shirt offers something a little different to the standard Spanish kits we are used to the national team wearing.
Costa Rica
Costa Rica's jersey is made by New Balance and represents the red, blue and white flag.
The side are still captained by Bryan Ruiz, 37, and they have been ranked as the least likely side to win this year's World Cup.
Germany
Germany won the World Cup back in 2014 thanks to Mario Gotze's strike and this will be their first major tournament in some time without manager Joachim Low at the helm.
Ex-Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick is now in charge with the Germans form up and down prior to the tournament.
Both the two shirts have proved a hit with fans online.
Group F
Belgium
Belgium have been one of the favourites to win a major trophy in recent years but have dropped slightly down the pecking order of potential winners in 2022.
But their kit splits opinion with flames on the sleeves.
For their away strip, the white with colourful trim has been inspired by a music festival that takes place in the country.
Canada
They are making their second ever appearance at a World Cup finals but Canada may not be in a new kit - the only team to not be.
The Athletic reported they are set to not wear something new because Nike and even Canada itself didn't plan on the team making it so a different design hasn't been in the works.
Morocco
Morocco's red home shirt has drawn comparison to something normally worn by Portugal.
As for their away, Puma have been praised by fans online with one saying: "Best kit of this year".
Croatia
Croatia were exceptional in 2018 inflicting heartbreak on England with a comeback win in the semi-final.
Some will deem them slightly weaker now with some of the old guard like Mario Mandzukic hanging up his boots but Luka Modric still captains the side and keeps the midfield ticking.
As for what they will be wearing, the home kit has the iconic Croatian red check pattern.
Group G
Brazil
Brazil are one of the favourites to win the tournament and they will be wearing their typical yellow and blue.
The colour of their away is officially: "Paramount Blue/Dynamic Yellow/Green Spark".
Serbia
Serbia are one of the most in-form sides around. They qualified in dramatic fashion when Aleksandar Mitrovic scored a last gasp winner against Portugal to win the group.
They then also won their Nations League group.
There is some nice detail on the shoulder inspired by the country's flag.
Group H
Portugal
Portugal's kit has received an awful lot of backlash. Fans have dubbed it a "cheap pyjama top"
Another tweeted: "Man that Portugal kit is horrible it makes me sick."
While a few thought it was OK, more reacted negatively stating: "This Portugal home kit ugly."
This World Cup could be Cristiano Ronaldo's last but he's hoping to still be in action for Portugal at Euro 2024.
Regarding the away - it may look familiar. Well, Puma are at it again with their box and shirt number away kits.
