UEFA Euro 2020 is all set to commence after a year's delay owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some of the biggest footballing nations in the continent will ply their trade in the prestigious competition. Besides the plethora of world-class players, team kits also tend to attract a lot of attention at major tournaments like the Euros.

Certain kits tend to become legendary due to various reasons, be it their design, aesthetics or the fact that a particular team did well wearing that kit. On that note, let's have a look at the five best kits at Euro 2020.


#5 Netherlands

Questions remain about Netherlands manager Frank de Boer and his tactics. But there is no denying that the Oranje have once again produced an excellent kit for Euro 2020.

With their kit sporting a trademark orange and the outline of a lion, the Netherlands will hope their football gets as much attention as their stunning kit. Stars like Memphis Depay, Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt will be in action for the Oranje at Euro 2020.

The Netherlands will be keen to make an impact at the tournament and certainly have the personnel to do so. However, they have been extremely inconsistent under De Boer, which could be their undoing at Euro 2020.

Euro 2020 favourites France have an incredible assortment of talent, so manager Didier Deschamps has a tough job in his hands in selecting the first XI.

At Euro 2020, Deschamps' men will wear a kit inspired by the one they wore during their triumphant 1998 FIFA World Cup-winning campaign, a tournament where Deschamps was the captain. France's Euro 2020 jersey is dark blue in colour with light blue strips on it.

With superstars like Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann and Karim Benzema in their ranks, France are the overwhelming favourites to win Euro 2020. Under Deschamps, Les Bleus won the FIFA World Cup in 2018.


#2 Germany

Germany's Euro 2020 kit is an impressive one. A classic Germany kit, Die Mannschaft's Euro 2020 apparel includes a white jersey with black horizontal stripes.

There are doubts about Germany's title hopes at Euro 2020, particularly squad selection and tactics, but there is little to complain about their kit for the tournament.

UEFA Euro 2020 will be Germany's long-standing manager Joachim Low's last tournament as the team's manager. Having been at the job since 2006, the German has led his country to success at the 2014 FIFA World Cup and also led them to the Euro 2008 final.


#1 Croatia

A lot has changed for Croatia since their dream run to the final of the FIFA World Cup in 2018.

Long-serving players like Mario Mandzukic and Ivan Rakitic have retired from national duty, so the pressure on midfielder Luka Modric is immense. However, there is little change to their kit - the classic red and white checks still dominate their jersey.

The Croatia jersey stands out because of its unique pattern. At Euro 2020, young stars like Duje Caleta-Car, Josko Gvardiol and Nikola Vlasic will rub shoulders with veterans like Modric, Dejan Lovren and Domagoj Vida. Despite their recent indifferent form, Croatia are expected to go deep at Euro 2020.
