Nations League 2026/27 Jerseys: Which National Team Shirt Should You Buy?
Updated September 23, 2026 · 8 min read
1. What the 2026/27 Nations League is — and the dates that matter
The 2026/27 UEFA Nations League is the fifth edition of Europe’s national-team competition. Sides are split into four leagues (A to D) with promotion and relegation between them, and League A group winners go on to the quarter-finals in March 2027 and the finals on 9–13 June 2027. The league phase runs across six matchdays from 24 September to 17 November 2026.
The opening window is unusually packed — four matchdays between 24 September and 6 October — so most fans need their shirt now, not in a month. The headline fixtures: Netherlands vs Germany (24 September), Italy vs Belgium and Türkiye vs France (25 September), and England vs Spain in Group A3 on Saturday 26 September. If you are buying for that window, order a shirt that dispatches in 7–15 business days.
League A is where every marquee shirt lives. Here is who plays where, with the collections we stock:
| Group | Teams | Shirts in stock |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | France, Italy, Belgium, Türkiye | France · Italy · Belgium |
| A2 | Germany, Netherlands, Serbia, Greece | Germany · Netherlands |
| A3 | Spain, Croatia, England, Czechia | Spain · Croatia · England |
| A4 | Portugal, Denmark, Norway, Wales | Portugal |
2. Home, away or third: which cut should you buy?
Every nation releases the same three cuts each season. The shirt on the pitch in most Nations League fixtures is the home one — but the right buy depends on what you already own. (We cover the full logic in our home vs away vs third kits guide.)
| Cut | Look | Buy it if |
|---|---|---|
| Home | The nation’s classic colours, worn in most fixtures | You want the default, safest choice — it also stays in stock longest |
| Away | Alternate colours for games where the home kit clashes | You already own the home shirt, or your nation’s away design is the better-looking one |
| Third / special | Limited releases and anniversary designs | You collect shirts — these are produced in smaller runs and sell out first |
3. Blank shirt vs player shirt
This is the decision that changes the price and the back of the shirt. A blank shirt leaves the back clean (or takes your own custom name and number); a player shirt arrives with the star’s name and number already applied. For how the constructions differ in fabric and fit, see our player edition vs fan version guide.
| Feature | Blank / fan shirt | Player shirt (name & number) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | From $35.99 | $39.90 |
| Back | Clean, no printing | Player name and number — Yamal 19, Mbappé 10, Bellingham 10 |
| Best for | Your own name, a gift, a minimal look | Backing one specific star into the finals |
| Sizes | Men’s, women’s, kids | Men’s, women’s and kids for the biggest names |
One honest note: the biggest names sell through fastest. Yamal’s Spain home shirt and Mbappé’s France home shirt are the two we would not wait on once the group stage starts.
4. How a national team shirt should fit
National team soccer shirts are cut far slimmer than NFL jerseys — there are no shoulder pads to build around. If you are between sizes and want a casual fit, size up once; if you want the close, on-pitch look, take your measured size. Measure your chest and compare it with our league-by-league size chart, and the soccer-specific notes in our soccer jersey sizing guide. Every order includes a free size exchange if the fit is wrong.

When does the 2026/27 Nations League start?
The league phase begins on 24 September 2026 and runs across six matchdays to 17 November 2026. England vs Spain is on Saturday 26 September 2026, and the League A finals are 9-13 June 2027.
Which national team shirt should I buy first?
Buy the home shirt of the nation you will wear most often — it is the design worn in most fixtures and stays in stock longest. Add the away shirt only once you have the home one, and treat third shirts as collector pieces.
How much does a 2026/27 national team shirt cost?
Blank official 2026/27 national shirts start at $35.99, and player shirts with a name and number such as Yamal 19 or Mbappe 10 are $39.90. Orders of $57 or more ship free.
Do national team shirts run big or small?
Soccer shirts run slimmer than NFL jerseys because there are no shoulder pads. Take your measured size for a close fit, or size up once for a casual fit. If it is wrong, a free size exchange sorts it out.
Can I put my own name and number on a national team shirt?
Yes. Buy the blank version of your nation’s shirt and add any name and number. Custom printing is produced to order, so allow the full 7-15 business day dispatch window.
When should I order to get my shirt before matchday?
Dispatch takes 7-15 business days. For the opening window (24 September to 6 October 2026) order immediately; for the November matchdays (12-17 November 2026) order by late October.
