Key Points
- All 24 nations have revealed their Euro 2024 kits
- Belgium pay homage to Tintin
- England opt for a classic look
Calling all fashion fans! With the start of the tournament just days away, all 24 competing nations have revealed their Euro 2024 kits. Some teams have opted for classic designs, whilst others have attempted to put a fresh spin on their outfits.
Meanwhile, one side has decided to pay tribute to a 1930s cartoon, which if nothing else offers huge entertainment value! In this article, I run the rule over the best and worst Euro 2024 kits, and take a peek at what our home boys have opted for. It’s essential reading for all football fashionistas.
Three of the best Euro 2024 kits
Belgium (Away) - Blistering barnacles!
Belgium’s golden generation may be on the decline, but Domenico Tedesco’s men will be sporting the most talked about Euro 2024 kit. Adidas have designed a unique Tintin-inspired away kit, complete with light blue shirts and brown shorts.
The launch saw actors dressed as Professor Calculus and the Thompson twins join the Belgian squad on stage. The shirts have already proved hugely popular with fans and could be the launchpad for a whole new era of kit design. Just don’t expect to see manager Domenico Tedesco dressed up as Captain Haddockon the bench!

France (Home) - Allez Les Bleus
Most
Euro 2024 betting sites
have France among the big favourites to win the tournament, and if they do, it will be whilst wearing one of the most iconic kits in recent competition history. After opting for a dark blue look in recent tournaments, Nike have reverted to a lighter, brighter look this time around.
Throw in a large cockerel badge and a tricolour collar, and you’ve got an instant classic kit that will remind fans of Zinedine Zidane, Michel Platini and other French legends.
Germany (Home) - Perfect for penalties
Adidas have really pulled out the stops for the home nation this year. The traditional white shirt is complemented by the usual black collar and shoulder pattern. However, what makes this kit truly stand out are the yellow and red sparks along the shoulders and sleeves.
It truly harks back to the glory days of Die Mannschaft, and you can easily imagine the likes of Rudi Voiller and Jurgen Klinsmann wearing it on the big stage. It all adds up to one of the best looking German kits I’ve seen since the early 1990s.
Three of the worst Euro 2024 kits
Croatia (Home) - This doesn’t check out
Croatia’s classic red and white checkerboard pattern has been popular with fans for the last 30 years. Unfortunately, Nike have decided to make the squares a lot bigger this time around. In fact, there are now only six panels on the entire shirt, which makes it look more like a rugby shirt, and seriously plays havoc with your eyes.
Serbia (Home) - Coming to a bargain bin near you
Serbia may be one of the so-called dark horses for Euro 2024, but their uninspired kit design is unlikely to win them many new fans. There’s nothing exactly wrong with their basic-looking kit, but Puma haven’t exactly gone overboard on Serbia’s home kit for Euro 2024. The shirt is dark red with a blue sleeve trim and…that’s about it. Such is the lack of effort that has gone into designing this kit, that it looks more like a cheap knockoff than an official product. Don’t be surprised to see this in bargain bins long before Serbia exits the tournament...
Austria (Home) - A complete mess
At first glance, Austria’s Euro 2024 kit looks like a standard red shirt with white trim. But upon closer inspection, it has the most bizarre background pattern imaginable. There are hundreds of random curved lines and dark red blobs. It looks a bit like a complicated underground map, but Puma’s website offers no explanation as to what the design actually represents. The only thing we know for certain is that it is a complete mess, so that’s a second foul for the sponsor. And as those of you who can remember David Seaman’s hideous England away kit will know, a complete mess rarely makes for a good result.

What will our home nations be wearing at the tournament?
Those are the best and worst Euro 2024 kits, but what will our beloved home nations be wearing this summer? Well, let’s take a sneaky peek inside the England and Scotland wardrobes and examine their Euro 2024 kits:
England - Sticking with tradition
Many fans are excited by England's prospects this summer and are sure to be making full use of their

to back the Three Lions. However, it’s fair to say that Nike won’t be picking up any trophies for their England 2024 home kit design. The classic white shirt, blue shorts and white socks are all present and correct, with a narrow red, white and blue trim surrounding them. The only other features of note are thick blue side panels. It’s unlikely to win any design awards, but many fans will love the classic look.
As for their away kit, Nike has moved away from the usual red shirts and opted for a colour that they define as ‘dark raisin’ (no, I’ve never heard of that before either). In truth, the colour is somewhere between indigo and dark blue, but it does make for a very distinctive shirt design, especially when combined with the (dare I say it) stunning Three Lions badge making quite a statement. Ditching the red shirts was surely a gamble on Nike’s part, but this new colour scheme works shockingly well.
Scotland - A modern classic
There’s an awful lot going on in Scotland’s home kit for Euro 2024. The deep blue shades on the front and back of the shirt incorporate an intricate tartan pattern that really makes this kit stand out. There is also a yellow trim on the collar, white stripes on the shoulders and yellow flares on the lower half of each side. There’s even a small Saltaire on the back of the collar. In short, this is one of the best Scotland kits of all time.
Conversely, Scotland’s away kit for Euro 2024 is, to put it politely, rather underwhelming. It’s an unusual (very) light blue colour and although it retains many of the design aspects of the home shirt, it simply doesn’t have the wow factor in any way, shape or form. Nevertheless, it’s passable and likely to be a big hit with the Tartan Army, even if their stay in Germany is destined to be a short one.
It ain’t quite haute couture!
It’s hardly what you’d call London Fashion Week, but some truly outstanding (and outlandish) kits will be on show at this year’s tournament. Of course, there are a few dud (actually pretty dismal) Euro 2024 kits, but that’s only to be expected, and the overall standard is extremely high.
And here’s some food for thought. If other countries copy Belgium’s cartoon concept, we could be entering a whole new era of kit design. After all, who wouldn’t want to see England dressed as eleven Peppa Pigs in a future edition? Well, perhaps not…
