Nike, the sportswear giant, has unveiled the new Super Falcons jersey for the forthcoming FIFA women’s World Cup. 

The photos of the new kits were shared in a post on Nike’s Instagram page on Monday.

The home jersey is styled with fluorescent green similar to that worn by the Super Eagles at the 2002 World Cup, with the typical Nike collar design in white to represent the country’s major colours.

The away kit is a very dark shade of green which is decorated with kaleidoscopic patterns sprinkled over pink-orange playing socks.
