On the occasion of the upcoming Qatar World Cup, Nike and the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) jointly launched new Brazil home and away jerseys. Brazil has been wearing yellow home jerseys since 1954, but over the past six decades, the jerseys have not always been the same yellow. This year, the team will wear the "Samba Golden" jersey, which is more dynamic than the yellow jerseys of the past two decades. To determine the exact hue, the designers took a color card to the Football Museum in Sao Paulo and carefully compared the yellow to match the jersey used in Mexico in 1970, the first time fans around the world. The World Cup as seen on color TV. “The Brazilian players in bright yellow shirts combined with their spectacular soccer style really impressed audiences around the world,” said Pete Hoppins, Nike soccer Apparel Senior Design Director. It is one of the most iconic moments in world soccer history and we hope to bring that dynamism into the design of Brazil's 2022 line-up."
