Oregon-based sportswear giant Nike has joined Adidas and Puma by launching its own collection of Federation kits for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The sportswear behemoth is celebrating and preparing for the upcoming FIFA World Cup by releasing away and home kits for each of their 13 represented countries.
With less than two months until the FIFA World Cup, which will be held in Qatar for the first time on November 20, 2022, making it the first Middle Eastern country to host the tournament, fans' excitement is at an all-time high. The recent release of the swoosh's label has only added to this.

Nike has dropped federation kits for 13 Federations ahead of the celebrated winter tournament. The 13 countries include Portugal, USA, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Netherlands, France, England, Poland, South Korea, Australia, Croatia, Canada, and Brazil.
