Egypt Football Shirts and Kits

Kit Detail & Heritage – A Look Back at Egypt’s Most Iconic Shirts

Egypt has long been a heavyweight in African football, earning its nickname The Pharaohs and making its mark with distinctive kits that blend tradition and modern flair. Their jerseys reflect not just football identity, but centuries of cultural legacy.

Famous Egypt Shirts Through the Years

1957 AFCON Champion Shirt – In Egypt’s early continental triumphs, kits were simple yet bold: strong primary colours, clean crests, and no frills. These early designs remain cherished among classic collectors.

1990 World Cup Kit – In their return to football’s global stage, Egypt donned a clean, red jersey with minimal trim. It stood as a statement of ambition - modest, direct, and full of hope.

2006–2010 Egyptian Golden Era Kits – As Egypt won successive AFCON titles (2006, 2008, 2010), their kits mirrored dominance: red tones, sharp collars, flag-inspired detailing. The 2008 kit, with gold piping and clean lines, is still a fan favourite.

2018 World Cup Design – The home shirt went deep red with subtle tapestry patterns and refined elements; the away kit reversed with white and dark accents. Egyptian stars at that tournament included Mohamed Salah and Ahmed Elmohamady.

2024 Puma Relaunch – Continuing the evolution, the recent kits lean into heritage: strong red, white variants, abstractions of Nile motifs, and modern fabric blends.

Legends & Modern Heroes

The shirt carries names that echo across stadiums. Mohamed Salah stands as Egypt’s modern icon - his presence elevates every jersey he wears. In days past, Hossam Hassan (top scorer) and Ahmed Hassan (most caps) defined eras. Behind those names, defenders, midfielders, goalkeepers - all carried the symbol of the Pharaohs with pride. 

Today’s players blend that legacy with global stature. Personalise your shirt with one of their names (or your own) in official styling, creating a link across generations.

Kit Suppliers & Evolution

Egypt’s kit history has included shifts between major global brands:

Puma (recent era) — current supplier, bringing modern cuts and bold editorial designs. 
Adidas (2012–2018) — delivered classic stripe aesthetics and technical fabrics. 
Puma (earlier years, 2006–2012) and prior brands like Venecia in the 1990s. 
Each era elevated design nuance, from minimalist to patterned, while retaining the heart: red, white, and the eagle/crest identity.

Tournament Legacy: AFCON & World Cups

Egypt has left an indelible mark in AFCON, winning seven titles (1957, 1959, 1986, 1998, 2006, 2008, 2010) - more than any other African nation. In those dominant periods, their shirts became symbols of supremacy across the continent.

On the World Cup stage, Egypt has qualified three times (1934, 1990, 2018) . In 1934, Egypt became the first African team to appear in a World Cup. Though global success has been more limited, Egypt’s presence is symbolic and enduring.
