Adidas Japan National Football Team 2014 World Cup Home Jersey

This item is an Adidas Japan National Football Team home jersey, likely from the 2014 FIFA World Cup collection, given its design elements. The jersey is primarily white, featuring a distinctive blue graphic resembling a mythical dragon or a stylized 'Kirin' (a Japanese mythical creature) across the front, extending from the left shoulder towards the right hip. The design has a hand-painted or watercolor-like quality, with varying shades of blue creating depth and movement. It is a 'polo-neck' style jersey, indicated by the folded collar in contrasting dark navy blue with two white horizontal stripes near the edge. The short sleeves also have dark navy blue cuffs. Three prominent black stripes, characteristic of the Adidas brand, run along each shoulder. On the wearer's left chest, there is the embroidered Japan Football Association (JFA) crest, featuring a 'Yatagarasu' (three-legged crow) with a red background and 'JAPAN' text above it. On the opposite side, the Adidas logo is embroidered in black. The material appears to be a lightweight, breathable polyester, typical for athletic wear. No significant condition issues such as rips, tears, or major stains are visible, suggesting it is in good to very good condition. The overall craftsmanship appears to be of high quality, consistent with official Adidas sports apparel. The jersey is currently displayed on a wooden hanger on a white, tubular garment rack, indicating it is likely part of a personal collection or resale inventory. The style reflects contemporary football jersey design from the early 2010s, combining national pride with artistic flair.
