France 1998 World Cup Away Retro Jersey
The France 1998 World Cup Away Retro Jersey is the white away shirt France wore at their home World Cup in 1998, with thin red and blue stripes across the chest. It is now available at JCClub as a Retro Fan Version – made from soft, comfortable fabric with a relaxed regular fit, so you can wear this piece of football history every day.
The Story Behind the France 1998 World Cup Away Retro Jersey
France hosted the 1998 World Cup and Aimé Jacquet’s squad – Zinedine Zidane, Didier Deschamps, Lilian Thuram, Marcel Desailly, Laurent Blanc, Thierry Henry and Fabien Barthez – had to cope with huge expectations.
They delivered. Thuram scored twice in the semi-final against Croatia, and in the final at the Stade de France Zidane headed two goals in a 3–0 win over Brazil. It was France’s first World Cup, and the white away shirt from that summer is a classic of the era.

The short sleeves and regular cut make it easy to wear on hot days, for five-a-side games or simply as a statement T-shirt.
