Inspired by samurai chainmail stitching (Sashiko), this bold Adidas design featured a deep navy base with intricate white dotted patterns across the chest and shoulders, with red accents on the crest and Adidas logo. It debuted at the 2018 World Cup, where Honda, Inui, and Kagawa helped Japan reach the Round of 16, famously giving Belgium a huge scare in a dramatic 3–2 loss.
