Descente Japan National Team 1998 Home Jersey Blue Jersey

This is the official Japan national football team home jersey from the 1998 FIFA World Cup, manufactured by Descente. The vibrant royal blue polyester jersey features a classic polo collar with white and red trim, white piping along the shoulders and sides, and distinctive flame-like graphics in purple and red on both sleeves. Centered on the chest is the Japan Football Association crest (a stylized chrysanthemum with a red sun disc) above the word 'JAPAN' in small white lettering. Below it, the prominent 'Cantv' sponsor logo appears in elegant white cursive script — referencing the Japanese electronics brand 'Cantv' (a subsidiary of Sanyo, active in sports sponsorship during the late 1990s). A woven jock tag at the lower left hem displays 'DESCEANTE', 'JFA', and '1998 WORLD CUP' details, confirming its authenticity and era. The fabric exhibits a subtle textured weave typical of early synthetic sportswear, offering lightweight breathability for match performance. While designed as athletic wear, its bold retro aesthetic and cultural significance have made it a highly collectible piece among vintage football memorabilia enthusiasts and streetwear fans who appreciate 90s J-fashion and sport heritage. Ideal for casual wear, fan gatherings, or display as a nostalgic collector’s item.
