The Step

Goalkeepers (like Dibu Martínez) use uniforms with exclusive Adidas design templates that prioritize high-adhesion textures in friction zones and striking colors to distort the striker's vision. Main Goalkeeper Kit: Traditionally apple green/fluorescent or deep coral red. The jersey features subtle geometric or digital camouflage patterns on the sides and shoulders. Alternative Goalkeeper Kit: Variants in absolute black with gold details, or turquoise blue. Specific Details: The shorts and socks must strictly match the color of the jersey chosen for that match. Goalkeepers' numbers are usually printed in white or black to ensure maximum contrast as required by regulations.

When outfield players are on the substitutes' bench awaiting entry, they must cover their official match uniform according to regulations. Training Bib / Vest: Loose bibs made of open mesh and highly contrasting colors (usually fluorescent green, old rose or vibrant orange) are worn so as not to be confused with the footballers who are playing the game or with the referees. Support Suits: In cold climates, they use the same game uniform pants combined with thermal training suits (usually light gray or light blue) before performing the competitive warm-up.

The main kit for outfield players combines historical tradition with champion details. Home Uniform Jersey: The classic design of light blue and white vertical stripes. The collar and sleeve cuffs usually feature white or navy blue trim. The AFA crest stands out on the chest with three embroidered stars and a gold Champion patch in the center. The number and names are printed in gold or black. Shorts: Traditionally black with light blue or white side stripes (occasionally white shorts are used depending on the opponent's kit). Socks: White with light blue details and the brand logo. Alternate (Away) Uniform Jersey: Typically navy blue or French blue, combining modern patterns in the background (sometimes with details that simulate the sun from the flag or geometric effects). The logos and numbers are printed in white or bright silver. Shorts: Blue, matching the t-shirt. Tights: Dark blue.

The coaching staff led by Lionel Scaloni uses a Corporate/Training line designed for comfort off the field, the substitutes' bench and press conferences. Training Shirt / Polo Shirts: Dark navy blue or black, made of breathable piqué or polyester fabric. They feature the monochromatic AFA crest in gold or white (with the 3 stars aligned) on the left chest and the brand's three stripes on the shoulders. Trousers: Skinny (tight) cut joggers in dark navy blue or black. Coats (Jackets/Windbreakers): Full-zip sports jackets or high-neck sweatshirts in dark tones, with minimal reflective gold details. Footwear: Urban or running shoes, mostly black or white.

At the continental and complementary level, the AFA's trophy cabinet reflects an absolute dominance that places it at the pinnacle of South American history. In total, the Argentine National Team holds the record of 16 Copa América titles, making it the most successful team in the regional competition, having lifted the trophy in 1921, 1925, 1929, 1937, 1946, 1947, 1955, 1957, 1959, 1991, 1993, 2021, and 2024, among other notable periods of absolute hegemony. These remarkable achievements are complemented by the victories in the CONMEBOL-UEFA Champions Cup (popularly known as the Finalissima), first won by Maradona in 1993 after defeating Denmark, and emphatically reclaimed by Scaloni's squad in 2022 at the legendary Wembley Stadium with a resounding 3-0 victory over Italy. Furthermore, the youth development programs coordinated by the AFA have historically been a beacon of global excellence. The Under-20 National Team is the most successful in this category worldwide, with six World Cups to its name (won brilliantly in Japan 1979, Qatar 1995, Malaysia 1997, Argentina 2001, the Netherlands 2005, and Canada 2007), serving as an indispensable platform for the emergence of world-class players. Finally, the official record of the federation is completed with the prestigious Olympic Gold Medals won consecutively by the Under-23 National Team at the Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008 Games, milestones that further consolidated the international prestige, competitive mystique and cultural grandeur of the Argentine Football Association throughout its 133 years of institutional life.

The first major global impact came at the memorable 1978 World Cup in Argentina. Under the meticulous tactical guidance of César Luis Menotti and with the goal-scoring prowess of Mario Alberto Kempes, the Albiceleste became world champions for the first time, defeating the Netherlands 3-1 at the Monumental Stadium, indelibly marking the beginning of their golden era at the tournament. Less than a decade later, at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, the federation achieved its second absolute world title. On that occasion, strategically guided by Carlos Salvador Bilardo and with Diego Armando Maradona at a celestial and unparalleled level, Argentina defeated West Germany 3-2 in a thrilling final held at the Azteca Stadium, reaffirming the unmatched status of its players before the eyes of the entire world. After years of elusive finals and profound leadership restructurings, the senior national team built the most glorious modern era in its history under the technical management of Lionel Scaloni and the absolute leadership of Lionel Messi. This dream period began with the conquest of the 2021 Copa América at the Maracanã against Brazil, culminated in epic fashion at the unforgettable 2022 World Cup in Qatar by defeating France in what many consider the greatest final of all time, continued with the victory in the 2024 Copa América in the United States, and maintains the team as the current champion and the ultimate benchmark in international football.

The Argentine Football Association (AFA) is the oldest football governing body in the Americas, and its founding marked a turning point for the country's sporting identity. It all formally began on February 21, 1893, when Scottish educator Alexander Watson Hutton, rightly considered the father of football in Argentina, founded the emblematic "The Argentine Association Football League" with representatives from various clubs. These pioneers laid the foundations for an organized and systematic competition, which in its early years was heavily dominated by British-owned clubs such as Lomas Athletic and the historic Alumni. As the game quickly spread from English schools to the vacant lots of working-class neighborhoods, the passion for it grew unchecked, forcing the federation to undergo various mergers, political splits, and profound name changes within its internal structure. After decades of amateurism that had become unsustainable due to high attendance and the growing financial demands, the Argentine Football League was formally created in May 1931. This historic milestone ushered in the era of professionalism in the national championships, marking the definitive consolidation of the popular clubs of the time. Finally, by the end of 1934, the various institutional branches officially united under the name we know today: the Argentine Football Association, which was fully adopted in Spanish in 1946. Throughout its rich competitive history, the AFA has managed the formation of national teams that achieved legendary status internationally, achieving world conquests that united the entire nation under one flag.
