The upcoming Copa América in 2024 has stirred up excitement and curiosity among fans, particularly with the leaked images of Argentina’s kits, which have garnered mixed reactions from supporters.
Leaked images of the kits surfaced online, courtesy of @footy_headlines on X. These images revealed a solid purple-colored shirt with distinctive white and blue stripes adorning the edges and collar.

Some fans couldn’t resist poking fun at the kit’s simplicity, with comments like “That looks more like a training shirt” and “Adidas is fumbling hard” taking center stage.
However, it’s important to note that not all fans were preoccupied with the kit’s aesthetics. Some supporters commented how they will be more focused on the on-field performances of the defending champions, led by the legendary Lionel Messi. For them, the kit’s appearance was secondary to the team’s performance.
Interestingly, discussions among fans also touched upon the comparison with the current away kit that gained prominence during the World Cup. While some argued in favor of the existing design, others countered that the importance of the away kit might be limited, given that it won’t feature prominently in most matches.
Argentine home jersey for Copa America
The leaked images of Argentina’s kits for the upcoming Copa America in 2024 have sparked contrasting reactions among fans. While the away kit has been met with disappointment, the home kit has garnered widespread approval.
In leaked images, the home kit presents the classic white and blue stripes, with an added touch of elegance through all-gold detailing. This includes the emblem, shirt numbers, the Adidas logo, and the prestigious World Cup badge at the center. This badge, representing the current world champions, adds a significant sense of prestige to the attire.

Fans expressed genuine excitement upon seeing this home kit, eagerly anticipating its availability. Comments such as “Yeah, this one looks way better than the away kit,” “Looks cool, and it will look even better in real life,” and “Nahhhhh, I need this one” resonated with the overwhelmingly positive sentiment surrounding the home kit.
Argentina, the reigning Copa America champions with 15 titles to their name, is gearing up for the 48th edition of the tournament. This prestigious competition will be held in the USA from June 20 to July 14, featuring participation from 16 countries across South American and North American federations.
Lionel Messi, who leads the Argentine national team, is poised to be a favorite in the tournament. They will be vying for success alongside their perennial rivals, Brazil, who will have Carlo Ancelotti at the helm as the national team’s manager starting after the conclusion of this season.
