World Cup 2018 kit power rankings: Part Five

LET'S GO!

23. Poland, away



Not bad, not bad
It's a deep red in a tournament of lighter shades.And that's a good thing.

22. Argentina, home




Decent
Designing an Argentina kit for a World Cup might be the easiest job in the world.Certainly easier than ranking them anyway.

21. Brazil, home




Get used to this sight
Yep, it's a Brazil kit.In fact, it's SO much of a Brazil kit that Nike's designers apparently went to the Football Museum in Sao Paulo and created a yellow which exactly matches the yellow worn at the 1970 World Cup in Mexico, when they were really rather good and won the thing.
No pressure there then, Neymar.

20. Peru, home




Sashy
Peru's return to the World Cup brought joy to sash fans everywhere, and the little touch of gold on the kit is nice too.But...

19. Peru, away




Even sashier
We prefer the away one, in truth.

18. Egypt, home




Pharaoh nuff
This is a nicer shade of red than many on offer at this tournament, and the mix with the black works.We think.

17. South Korea, away




Yes, that's a Scotland kit. Sorry Scotland.
There are a LOT of white kits at this World Cup, but the pattern on the front of this South Korea change strip makes it one of the better ones.

16. Croatia, home




Dejan likes it
You know what you want from Croatia, and they've delivered here with bigger, bolder checks than we've seen before.Nice.

15. France, home




Other energy companies are available
It's a little darker than France have gone for in the past, and we might have liked to see a little flash of white on there a la the 1998 World Cup winning effort, but we'll take it.

14. Panama, away




Does not come with a free hat
Hello.The flecks of blue make this a respectable effort for Panama on their World Cup debut, and the fact that there seem to be arrows pointing downwards towards the pitch serve as a reminder of where the action is going to be.
Which is helpful.
