There has been a slight change in the shade of blue in Les Bleus' home kit as they decided to go back to using a much brighter tone instead of the darker variant that the national team have been donning in the last few years, including the 2018 and the 2022 World Cups. The away kit, on the other hand, is all-white accompanied by blue shorts.

Like the iconic jersey at the 1998 World Cup, where France won their maiden World Cup, the new kit also has three stripes – red, white and blue – on the collar.
