Tunisia are World Cup regulars and one of North Africa’s most consistent footballing nations — the Eagles of Carthage (Nsour Carthage) bring discipline, pride and a passionate support to every tournament. For 2026, Italian brand Kappa built the entire collection around the team’s defining symbol: the Eagle of Carthage, rendered through elegant feather detailing across a sharp three-kit range.
White at home, red away, and a fashion-forward black third — all unified by a feather motif across the shoulders. Heritage and modern sportswear, woven together.
The colour of a proud, regular World Cup nation
The red-and-white of the Eagles of Carthage is the colour of a proud, regular World Cup nation. The shirt has to balance heritage with modern edge, and Kappa’s eagle-feather concept threads that needle across three cohesive kits.
