Stars are a common way to signify the amount of World Cup titles a country has won. The Argentina logo, which is prominently displayed on their national team's kit, featured two stars to represent the two World Cup titles the nation had previously won in 1978 and 1986. Now, with the 2022 championship also secure, a third star will be added.

Update December 28: The launch of the Adidas Argentina 3-Star jersey has been postponed to April 2023. After Lionel Messi carried Argentina to victory in the final against France in a thrilling match that finished on a penalty shootout, the Albiceleste now must update their logo to reflect the third World Cup title in the nation's history.

Argentina World Cup winners badge

Prior to the World Cup final, adidas had confirmed that official Argentina shirts with Messi personalisation had sold out worldwide. The German kit maker did, however, release a short moving graphic congratulating Lionel Messi and Argentina. The graphic features five different looks of Messi throughout the years all stitched together to be celebrating the World Cup. The caption reads "Impossible is Nothing." Now that Argentina have won the 2022 title, there will be an updated jersey which adds a third star above the two previously existing ones to signify their third World Cup championship. Oddly, the adidas release does not quite match the star pattern released by the Argentina federation in the aftermath of the championship, which indicates the earlier version was more of a symbolic gesture than an official update. Argentina shirts with the updated logo and World Cup champion identification have been announced by adidas as going on sale December 26. Update: The Argentina 3-Star football kit could be already available to get from Monday, December 26, 2022 in Argentina. This has been "confirmed by Adidas" to Argentinian journalist Mauro Albornoz ( @Mau_Albornoz). However, there is probably at least one downside - it will be only available in Argentina on 26 December, and certainly in very limited quantities.

Adidas has also added a World Cup winner badge to the center of the front, commemorating the title at the 2022 World Cup. Fanatics has already begun selling some gear, including the official kit, although there are still a number of other selections featuring an "Image Coming Soon" placeholder. FIFA World Cup 2022 title winners Argentina will be getting a monumental update to their badge and shirt.

Argentina's 2022 World Cup kit featured two stars directly above the federation logo to signify their two previous World Cup titles. Now, however, a third star is set to be added as the Argentine federation released an updated version of their logo just moments after claiming the 2022 title. At this point, adidas have not made any in-depth statements about the current status of the Argentina shirt. There is no info on when other versions of the Adidas Argentina 3-Star kit become available, e.g. the authentic version.What is misleading is that Adidas also added pictures of Messi to the winning shirt kit. Messi is wearing the authentic version, and not the replica that Adidas sell. The badge is gold and features the World Cup trophy with silver lettering that reads "FIFA World Cup champions 2022." It is probably only available early in Argentina, while the rest of the world could have to wait until April 2023There is no new info on the availability of the Adidas Argentina 3-Star jersey outside Argentina.
