2014 Season Dutch Home Ground

The 2014 Brazil World Cup saw this orange home jersey witness the “Orange Army's” avenging storm and glorious journey: in the second group stage match, wearing this jersey, they easily defeated Australia 2-0; in the final group match, they secured a 2-0 victory over Chile to advance as group winners. In the knockout stage, they defeated Mexico 1-0 and eliminated Costa Rica in a penalty shootout. Though they suffered a heartbreaking loss to Argentina in the semifinals, they swept Brazil 3-0 in the third-place match to secure bronze. Van Persie's diving header became a World Cup icon, while Robben's solo winner and Sneijder's midfield orchestration made orange the tournament's most dazzling hue, rewriting the modern chapter of “total football.”
The jersey reimagines orange heritage with commemorative design: A rich Royal Orange base honors a century of Dutch football tradition, echoing the heritage of the Prince of Orange flag. Celebrating the KNVB's 125th anniversary, an enlarged white lion crest adorns the left chest alongside the “1889-2014” date, embodying the core values of “Sincerity, Honor, Unity.” The traditional V-neck conceals a lion crown embroidery detail, while subtle white trim adorns the cuffs. This complements the retro-inspired font numbers designed by renowned Dutch designer Wim Crouwel, with miniature KNVB badges beneath each digit showcasing meticulous craftsmanship.
It embodies the glory of Dutch football's 125-year legacy and stands as a direct testament to the “Legend of Revenge.” Wearing this collector's piece allows you to revisit Robin van Persie's iconic flying header goal while perpetuating the spirit of football—a fusion of orange devotion, retro design, and eco-friendly technology—across time and space.
