The final Germany x Adidas link-up is blue, and it's something we never thought we would see, as designers have decided to go all out.

The jersey has a navy blue base and is also combined with white logos and mint applications, a maritime combo. We really like the thinking behind this one.

After the fun of the pink-and-purple get-up during Euro 2024, now for something a little more refined and traditional with plenty of touches to ensure this one goes down well with middle Deutschland.

There are bluey-green little diamonds all over the top in threes – Bavarians will adore that – while the three stripes, collar and cuffs don't really feel ‘high performance’.

But that's a good thing: as with all these Adi Originals-style efforts, this is a top you'd expect from the ‘70s or ‘80s.

There's a classic Adidas tag on the bottom-right of the top, too – only Germany have been given that, the others have a different tag altogether – while the Trefoil logo and eagle badge are both enamel-esque white.

But as classic as it feels… something just feels a bit off.

Yes, it does feel like a Germany shirt – but it seems as if Adidas have done all the experimentation with the colour palette and left none for the design of the top itself… some may say it's too minimal an effort with nothing to make it stand out, as a result.

Blue is usually a colour sported by the goalkeepers with Germany, so this one does feel a tad against the traditionalists on that side.

But what do you think? A big fan or one that's heading down the pan? Is it sleek or a little bit bleak? Let us know in the comments down below...
