PUMAElegant, proud, and deeply Moroccan.
Few teams arrive at World Cup 2026 carrying as much momentum — and as much love — as Morocco. The Atlas Lions made history in 2022 as the first African and Arab nation to reach a World Cup semi-final, igniting a continent and a diaspora. They are no longer a surprise; they’re a force, and one of the most emotionally supported teams on the planet.
Puma understood the moment. Morocco’s 2026 collection is a celebration of national heritage, rendered with real craft: traditional embroidery on the deep-red home, and intricate zellige-tilework artistry on the white away. It’s elegant, proud, and deeply Moroccan.
A banner for a continent
After 2022, the Morocco shirt became a symbol far bigger than one nation — a banner for African and Arab football pride. The kit has to honour that weight, and Puma’s choice to root it in authentic Moroccan craft gives it the dignity the moment deserves.

Regal and refined
The home shirt is regal: a deep, commanding red — the colour of passion and courage — lifted by green accents and traditional embroidery-inspired patterning at the collar and cuffs. It feels rooted, dignified, and instantly Moroccan.
The away shirt is the elegant showpiece — a white base carrying a light sand-coloured ornamental graphic inspired by Moroccan zellige tilework, rugs and textiles, with red and green accents. Delicate, layered, and rich with cultural meaning.
Heritage rendered with real craft
Both kits celebrate Moroccan craft: embroidery and traditional patterning on the home, zellige tilework and Amazigh-inspired ornamentation on the away. It’s a proud, dignified expression of national heritage — fitting for a team that now carries continental hopes.

Heritage in the details
First African & Arab semi-finalists
Morocco became the first African and Arab nation to reach a World Cup semi-final, in 2022.
Zellige artistry
Zellige — the intricate geometric tilework referenced on the away kit — is a celebrated Moroccan art form.
Amazigh heritage
Amazigh (Berber) culture, also referenced in the away design, is central to Morocco’s heritage.
The away kit’s ornamental graphic isn’t generic decoration — it draws specifically on zellige tilework, rugs and textiles, with Amazigh-inspired detailing, making the shirt a wearable piece of Moroccan craft.
What’s the keeper?
Both kits have strong appeal given Morocco’s surging global following. The zellige-inspired away is the distinctive collectible; the deep-red home is the proud, evergreen pick. Authentic versions and star namesets lead resale.
Three ways to wear it
- Casual: Zellige white away + neutral trousers + clean sneakers — elegant and easy.
- Matchday: Deep-red home with a red cap; proud Atlas Lions look.
- Heritage-forward: Lean into the craft details with minimalist, refined pieces.
