All 16 nations participating in this summer's European Championship have brand new jerseys for the event.
The European Championship, also known as the Euro Cup, is a soccer tournament played every four years between the 16 top teams in Europe for the title of Champion.
For European soccer fans, as well as many others around the world, this event is as big a deal as the World Cup, and happens two years after that tournament so as to fall exactly halfway between World Cups.
This year's tournament will be hosted by Poland and Ukraine from June 8 through July 1 when the final will be contested in Kiev.
All 16 teams in the tournament, 14 qualifiers and two hosts, have brand new designs from various manufacturers. Check them all out here.
