Nike 2026 World Cup Collab – England, South Korea, Canada, USA, Netherlands, Nigeria and France

The Swoosh partners with seven of the world’s most influential streetwear brands, designers, and artists. Each participant has been paired with their country’s football association to produce the most sought-after cap collection.

Patta x Netherlands & Virgil Abloh Archive x USA

Every single collaboration will involve custom game day clothes and the special color of youth Nike Cryo Shot silhouette – a shoe model heavily inspired by retro football boots from Nike’s history.

Here’s a full breakdown of the seven incredible partnerships coming up for the 2026 World Cup:

Dragon x South Korea

K-pop icon and fashion visionary G-Dragon (the brain behind PEACEMINUSONE) is collaborating with the Korea Football Association. Known for his unique, boundary-pushing style and previous highly successful Nike Air Force 1 collaborations, he expects this collection to effectively bridge the gap between global K-pop culture and the dynamic identity of the South Korean national team.

Jacquemus x France

To take Les Bleus in the field of high fashion, Nike recorded the Parisian label Jacquemus in the French collection. Founded by Simon Porte Jacquemus, this brand is famous for its chic, minimalist, and elegant aesthetic. We expect this to be the most sophisticated and cutting-edge offering of the entire 2026 edition, combining France’s football heritage with runway-ready silhouettes.

NOCTA x Canada

With Canada participating in the 2026 World Cup, Nike is bringing the world’s biggest superstar: Drake. His Nike sub-label, NOCTA, will design the capsule for Canada. NOCTA is known for its aggressive, heavy, and sporty streetwear aesthetic, which should translate perfectly into modern wear and the re-inspired Cryo Shot sneaker.

Palace x England

London-based skateboarding and streetwear heavyweight Palace will take over the Three Lions. Palace know football very well, as they are closely involved with Juventus in 2019. The Palace England World Cup 2026 jersey has already been leaked, and it’s a standout piece.

Patta x Netherlands

Amsterdam’s own Patta is linked to the KNVB in the Netherlands group. Patta has a deep connection to both football culture and Nike (especially their famous Air Max collaboration). Expect this capsule to draw heavily on Dutch street culture, hip-hop, and the “Oranje” color palette.

Slawn x Nigeria

Nike drops in Nigeria are always eagerly awaited. For this collection, Nike has partnered with London-based Nigerian artist Olaolu Slawn. Known for his chaotic, provocative, graffiti-style artwork, Slawn’s signature aesthetic combined with the flamboyant power of the Super Eagles is guaranteed to produce one of the wildest and most sought-after kits of the year.

Virgil Abloh Archive x USA

Out of respect and compassion, Nike is partnering with the Virgil Abloh Archive for the United States collection. The late founder of Off-White had a deep love for football, previously releasing the iconic “Football, Mon Amour” collection with Nike in 2018.
