Kit Detail & Heritage – A Look Back at Israel’s Iconic Jerseys
The Israel national team’s kits reflect national identity through colour and design: white and blue drawn from the flag, classic cuts, and over time, updates in fabric, trim, and style. When Puma took over the contract in 2018, they reintroduced a lighter shade of blue last seen in early kits. Each release aims to balance performance, visual appeal, and national symbolism.
Famous Israeli Kits & Memorable Eras
-
1970 World Cup Kit – Marked Israel’s first and so far only World Cup finals appearance. The white home shirt with blue trim became iconic, especially after drawing with Italy and Sweden.
-
2016/17 Adidas Away – A strong alternate kit using Israel’s darker blue, trimmed with white, worn during qualification matches under the Condivo style template.
-
Puma Era 2018-2022 – Bringing back lighter blue tones, modern fabrics, updated crests, and streamlined designs that nodded to past styles.
Legends & Current Stars Who’ve Worn the Israel Shirt
Israel has produced several players who have become symbols both at home and internationally:
-
Eran Zahavi – prolific scorer and current record-holder for Israel; a go-to name for fans.
Tal Banin – midfield workhorse, known for grit and reliability over years.
-
Avi Nimni – former captain and club legend, with long service and recognition in Israel’s football history.
These names carry stories. Many shirts allow you to feature current stars or legends with name & number personalisation.
Who Makes the Israel Kit?
-
Puma — Entered into an official partnership with Israel’s national teams in 2018, replacing adidas, supplying kits, training wear, and equipment.
-
Adidas — The previous long-term supplier before Puma’s current run; many classic kits, including the 2016-17 away design, came from Adidas.
Israel Kit Evolution: From Classic Whites to Modern Partners
-
Early kits were clean, minimal: primarily white base with blue accents, straightforward collars, clean trims.
-
Over time, designs introduced blue as primary on alternate/away shirts, variations in collar style, badges, and subtle patterning.
-
The Puma era introduced lighter blues, more modern fabric technologies, fit improvements, and refreshed crests.
-
The upcoming switch to Reebok marks a fresh chapter — design updates expected, possibly refreshed trim, templates, or colour tones.
