Nike and Brazil have extended their partnership for another 12 years, reinforcing an almost 30-year relationship between one of football’s most iconic duos.

Nike has been designing Brazil’s kits since 1997, and the partnership has resulted in some all-timers. 

The legendary canary yellow, green and royal blue colourways of Brazil’s home and away jerseys are undoubtedly defined by Nike templates. The Swoosh took a stunning colour palette and turned it into something iconic, from the 1998 World Cup selection to 2024’s abstracted designs. 

Despite rumours of a potential switch to adidas next year, the Swoosh x Brazil love story isn’t coming to an end anytime soon.

In recent years, football partnerships have been but through the blender, with some of the longest-standing kit deals going up in smoke. 

With Germany leaving adidas for Nike starting in 2027, Portugal linking up with PUMA next year and Liverpool joining forces with adidas for the first time in 13 years, changes just keep on coming.

When it looked like Brazil was ready to jump into the mix with a decade-long adidas deal, the South American giants put pen to paper to guarantee 12 more years of some of football’s most coveted designs. 

Football’s fashion fever is at an all-time high, and another decade of CBF x Nike is just what the doctor ordered.
