France Away Football Shirt 1998/1999
The France Away Football Shirt 1998 is a white retro-style football shirt that captures the cleaner away look from one of France’s most recognisable late-90s eras. Its navy chest band, red horizontal striping and tricolour trim give it a clear Les Bleus identity while setting it apart from the famous blue home shirts.
France Away Football Shirt 1998: white 90s away identity
This shirt works because it keeps the France colour palette but changes the balance. Instead of leading with royal blue, the white base gives the design a sharper, lighter feel. The front uses a bold navy band across the chest, with slim red stripes below it for a crisp archive look.
The collar and sleeve edges continue the red, white and blue theme. On the back, the design stays much cleaner, with subtle piping, a small F.F.F-style neck detail and tricolour touches near the sleeve and hem. As a result, the shirt feels retro without looking too busy.

Who this France away shirt suits
This is a strong choice for fans who want a France shirt with more restraint than a blue home top. It suits collectors who like 90s international football, but it also works well as a casual piece. Pair it with dark denim, navy joggers or a light jacket for an easy retro sportswear look.
Because the shirt has a mostly white body, the red and navy details stand out clearly. Therefore, it offers a different styling angle from darker France shirts while still feeling unmistakably connected to Les Bleus.
How it stands apart from other France shirts
France home shirts usually lean into a dominant blue base. This away version takes the opposite route. It uses white as the main colour, then adds structure through the chest band, fine red lines and tricolour trims. That makes it a more understated option for buyers who want the 1998-era feel without a full-blue match look.
