Iraq, known for their feat in Asia Cup 2007 despite being a nation torn due to war, have an all white home kit and an all green away kit. Only few knew that prior to the Asia Cup final, the Iraqi national team played in an incomplete set of uniform kit! In the final match, they were finally sponsored a brand new set of Umbro kits.For a slightly different style, besides placing the Iraq flag as normally used, this kit introduces the Iraq flag fitted in a shield as used in the nation's coat of arms. Also introduced is the placement of the Iraq FA's emblem on the right side of the chest.
Home kit
The all white home kit has a printed graphic green band across the chest with a pale turqoise blue in between the green colours. The design represents a streaming river through the green furtile land of Mesopotamia (which means the land between two rivers) - a civilization of old Iraq. The pale turqoise blue is also used on the Iraq FA's emblem. The collar and sleeve grips are black with green details.
Away kit
The all green away kit has printed graphic representing the Iraq flag colours across the chest. In order to retain the traditional feel in the away kit, white is used extensively throughout the kit on the collar, sleeve grips and the top half of the socks. The collar and sleeve grips are white with green details.
