Jan 22, 2024

League Changes: The 2024 J League will have 20 teams, following the departure of two teams from the previous season.
Kit Manufacturers: Major brands like Adidas, Nike, and Puma outfit a significant portion of the league, while some kits come from less globally known brands.
Kit Design: The majority of 2024 J League kits are bespoke, with the exception of two teams using customized Adidas templates, but most kits are heavily sponsored with six logos each.

The 2024 J League will see 20 teams after two teams left the league. Now, one month ahead of the start on 24 February 2024, almost all 2024 Japanse J League kits have been released - we take a look at all, in cooperation with Football Kit Archive.

In terms of manufacturers, the big brands also dominate in Japan - Adidas, Nike, and Puma all make the kits for three teams - this means that almost 50% of the J League kits are made by just three brands.

Not a single J League team has teamwear kits

Meanwhile, we also see five brands that are not present on global pitches. Asics, Athleta, Penalty, and Yonex.

These are all home kits of the 2024 J League (via @waserin_PES - created with FIFA Kit Creator).

The 2024 J League kits all have 100% bespoke looks, with the exception of the Adidas-sponsored Albirex Niigata and Machida Zelvia, whose kits are customized Adidas Locker Room templates.

What is surely a downside compared to the kits of Europe and the USA is that the J League teams have as many as six sponsors - three on the front, two on the back, and one on the sleeves.

The 2024 J League, which is considered a positive change by many, has ditched the streamlined font - we, therefore, see custom typefaces for many teams.
