Umbro unveiled the 2021-22 Iraq national team’s home shirt.
The green home jersey features a graphic pattern of the Babylon palm across the front, symbolising victory as well as the walls of the Ishtar Gate, once one of eight entrances to the inner city of ancient Babylon.
The design is completed with a classic black V-neck and a black & white repeat-diamond taping around the cuff of the sleeve. it is also signed off with “Iraq” in Kufic, a traditional Arabic script, on the back.

The Home shirt is inspired by ancient Mesopotamian symbols that have represented this culture for many thousands of years. Mesopotamia is a historical region situated within the Tigris–Euphrates river system and is the world’s oldest recorded civilization. Present day Iraq emerged from this area that is often also called the “cradle of civilisation”.
