The top 5 most beautiful Adidas x Germany classic kits

Adidas and Germany are set to part ways after 70-years, with the German Football Association deciding to move kit manufacturing and design over to Nike.

A controversial decision, which has seen fans mourn the end of a 70-year collaboration, has left many reflecting on the most beautiful kits of the adidas x Germany era.

TTP ranks the most beautiful and best Germany kits produced by adidas, and give an insight into what makes these designs timeless.

#5 adidas Germany 2020 Qatar World Cup 'human rights protest' away shirt

A shirt which caused a stir in world football, designed to be all black as a protest against migrant deaths and poor working conditions faced by migrant workers in Qatar ahead of the Qatar World Cup 2020.

The kit is slick with a 'Germany flag' trim on the sleeves to show the nation's identity. Only worn a handful of times by the German Men's National team, this kit is slick and allows the player name and numbers to come to the fore.

#4 adidas Germany 2023 Special-Edition 1,000th Game Anniversary Shirt

Only worn for one game vs. Ukraine, these one-off 1,000th game anniversary shirts went down a storm with shirt collectors alike. The match-worn shirts were auctioned off after the game to raise money for charity.

#3 adidas Germany 2010 World Cup kit

Whilst the shirt itself will bring back sore memories of being knocked out by Spain in the semi-finals, the minimalist design by adidas made this Germany World Cup 2010 home kit an instant classic.

#2 West Germany adidas Italia 90 World Cup home kit 1990

A beautiful home kit which most German fans will symbolise as one of the greatest World Cup wins of all time, in the classic Italia '90 World Cup. Not long after the fall of the Berlin wall, West Germany was competing almost on behalf of a soon-to-be unified nation, with this kit symbolising the future of not just German football, but Germany as a whole. This design has influences from Germany's famous Bauhaus design school, which makes this kit one of the most beautiful kits ever produced.

#1 West Germany 1983 adidas Special home kit

This adidas Special West Germany kit from 1983 has become somewhat of a valuable and rare collector's item. The kit itself is minimalist but classic, with the old adidas Originals logo, making it a beautiful historic kit design that has withstood the test of time.

As an era comes to a close with adidas and Germany parting ways, fans and classic shirt collectors will always have the iconic German shirts to collect and admire.
