Gallery: Brazil Unveil New Nike World Cup Kits

Five-time FIFA World Cup winners Brazil have unveiled their new Nike home kit, which shines in a new Samba Gold shade, as well as their away strip for the upcoming tournament in Russia.

The Selecao are still the most successful nation in World Cup history, having won the tournament in 1958, 1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002, and are once again among the favourites for Russia 2018.

At the tournament, which starts in 84 days' time, Brazil will once again wear a yellow home kit, as has been their tradition since 1954, accompanied by blue shorts. However, the latest kit has a new shade of yellow named "Samba Gold", which was inspired by the kit worn in Mexico in 1970.  

"The bright, vivid yellow of the Brazilians combined with their style of play really made an impact on viewers around the world," Nike Football Apparel senior design director Pete Hoppins said.

"It's one of the most iconic moments in the history of football, and we wanted to channel that energy into the 2018 National Team collection.

"Being Brazilian is about rhythm, a certain type of movement. You see it in the dance, you see it in the art and you certainly see it on the football pitch. Only Brazilians play this way."

Brazil's away kit is blue, drawing inspiration from the first time they wore the colour, in 1958 against Sweden. The top's pattern involves a star, referring to the first winner's star Brazil received after lifting their first ever World Cup in 1958.
