England have confirmed their new home and away kits for the 2026 World Cup. The designs, produced by Nike under a £400m partnership with the FA, replace the controversial multi‑coloured St George's Cross from two years ago. Fans will see the new shirts in action next Friday against Uruguay at Wembley.

The home strip eschews the previous colour scheme, opting instead for a clean all‑white look that honours England’s heritage. Inside the collar, the words happy and glorious echo the national anthem, God Save the King. A metallic gold star sits above the crest, a nod to the 1966 World Cup triumph.

The away kit returns to a classic red shirt after a purple phase that began in 2024. It features a centred badge and will be paired with navy shorts. The change signals a shift back to tradition, offering a familiar look for supporters and players alike.

England’s debut of the new kits comes just before the opening match of the tournament, a high‑profile fixture that will test the team’s resolve. The design choices reflect a desire to balance modernity with tradition, aiming to rally fans and reinforce national pride on the world stage.
