The South Africa Away Shirt 1998 brings back one of the most distinctive looks from Bafana Bafana’s football history. Featuring a bold black base, a classic green collar and striking white and green horizontal graphics across the lower part of the shirt, this shirt belongs to the era of South Africa’s historic first World Cup appearance in France in 1998. A memorable generation including Lucas Radebe, Benni McCarthy, Shaun Bartlett, Mark Fish and Quinton Fortune helped define this breakthrough period. A striking 90s design that captures the colour, confidence and unmistakable identity of South African football.

1998 was a landmark year for Bafana Bafana. South Africa reached the Africa Cup of Nations final before making their first-ever appearance at the World Cup later that year. Benni McCarthy scored South Africa’s first World Cup goal in a 1-1 draw with Denmark, while Shaun Bartlett scored twice in the 2-2 draw against Saudi Arabia. Although Bafana Bafana narrowly missed out on the knockout stage, France ’98 marked the beginning of a new chapter in South African football history.

Made from lightweight and breathable fabric, the shirt provides excellent comfort and freedom of movement whether you’re playing, training or wearing it as a classic football piece.
