Colombia 1998 Away
The iconic Umbro Colombia 1998 away shirt, featuring the deep navy-blue base, bold red and yellow detailing, and embroidered FCF crest, is a true 90s classic and one of the most distinctive kits in South American football history.
Sleek, powerful, and unmistakably Colombian, it reflects a golden period for Los Cafeteros.
Worn during the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, this shirt accompanied Colombia as they arrived with high expectations following an impressive qualification campaign. Under coach Hernán Darío Gómez, Colombia combined technical flair with attacking ambition, aiming to make a strong impact on the global stage.
At the heart of the squad was Carlos Valderrama, the legendary playmaker whose vision and passing defined an era of Colombian football. Alongside him were key players such as Faustino Asprilla, Iván Córdoba, Freddy Rincón, Mauricio Serna, and goalkeeper Óscar Córdoba, forming a talented and charismatic squad.
Colombia’s campaign included a memorable victory over Tunisia, but despite flashes of quality and attacking intent, the team was eliminated at the group stage in a highly competitive group.
More than just a football shirt, this away kit represents pride, creativity, and the enduring legacy of Colombia’s 1990s generation. A true Umbro classic and an essential piece for collectors of retro South American football history.
