I have heard that the reason that Germany wear green as an away strip is as a mark of respect to Ireland.  \n\nIreland were the first non-German speaking country that would play an international against West Germany following the war (in 1950).  As the national colour for Ireland is green, Germany said that they would have their 2nd strip in this colour as a thank-you.\n\nThis year Klinsman has changed this strip to red as wearing a red strip  statistically produces better results across the sporting world.

I like the boys in Adidas. :D  Especially Argentina.  It's awesome how they reinvent the albiceleste (blue and white) uniforms World Cup after World Cup, and the dark blue uniforms are great as well.

Some of them are the team bands. I know Texas Long horns have them. I have two green ones. One from USO "Support our troops" another green band as a work Safety reminder. But there are many others, Yellow is "livestrong" Cancer supporters. Many Many more. Pink bands for breast cancer awarness or supporters. etc.

I can't give you a helpful answer but only my humble opinion.  I thnk thier present colour is fine. I think the colours of a teams national flag should be reflected on their jerseys and shorts whenever possible.  Brazil have perfect jerseys and shorts. Portugal, not really -- the wrong red and no green at all.

Talking about "home" and "away" uniforms is kind of misleading nowadays, because the teams don't wear different uniforms when they play home and away; they have a main one, which is worn almost always, and then one or two others that can be used when the opposing team wears the same colors. So yours is a very interesting question, because Italy's main uniform is, like you said, the blue one, and it has become so important in the identity of italian sport that the italian athletes are called "azzurri" and the national teams are called "squadra azzurra" (blue team).\n\nIn fact, the answer is very simple: like in the Netherlands, the blue was chosen because it was the colour of the royal house. It happened in 1911, when Italy used to play in white. There was a football match against Hungary, who also played in white, and so the italians thought that it was their duty as hosts to wear a different uniform so that the teams wouldn't play in the same colours. They chose the blue colour because it was the colour of the royal house who was ruling at the time - the house of Savoia.

I think the best uniform in sports belongs to the Agentinian soccer team. Classic.\n\nA close second- The New Zealand All-Blacks!

it all depends on who created the uniform, in this case someone who liked blue color.... anyways the Italian team have been always known as "azzurri" that means blue so i dont think they will change it soon

Each team shall wear its official jersey as declared on the official entry form during a preliminary round competition match.\n\nIf, in the opinion of the referee or match commissioner, the two teams’ colours might cause confusion or prove unsuitable for television broadcast, the host team will wear its official kit while the visiting team will wear either its away kit or a combination of both.

They are on holiday now and will then later go back to their clubs. The team will come back to Australia for the Asian Cup qualifier against Kuwait on the 16th of August.\n\nNot all players will be here, with some expected to retire or decline to come due to club committments.
