I like your shirt!
After a feature on the BBC looking at some of the best and worst kits in World Cup history, I thought I'd have a look at this years and see who are the culprits in this World Cup. Something got me sidetracked though, and it was mainly the kits made by Puma.
It seems that if you want Puma to make your shirt, you want a fancy design in the background.
Here are the ones I found:
Saudi Arabia: Palm trees?!
Poland: An eagle I think?
Ghana: Stars?
Iran: Stars again?!
Togo: Another eagle. Nice colour though!
Czech Republic: The dragon that's on their flag
Tunisia: Being a bit original here, an eagle
Ghana: An elephant, I think they may be getting the idea now...
Switzerland: Finally, one that makes sense!
Those are some of the strangest shirts I've seen in a long time, half of those images don't make sense.
But obviously nothing beats.....
Have to got a favorite and worst national shirt? Doesn't matter too much if they are World Cup ones.

The emblem on the the Polish shirt is a representation of the White Eagle. This bird has appeared on the coat of arms of the Polish monarchy (and continued through republics and communism) since the 10th Century. It appeared on coinage and armorial bearings of the first recognised Polish king, Boleslaw the Brave.
The Austrian eagle is black and probably dates back to 1919, thought to have evolved from the eagle of the Austro Hungarian Hapsburg dynasty - although that one had two heads.

Re: I like your shirt!
