World Cup Winners.....

[derek_hayne_beaumont]

Now, this is a query more than a quiz question. I'm trying to find a list of all the previous winners of the world cup. Then once I've found that out I need to know who made their kits when they won! It's gonna be a bit of a task but if anyone knows where I can find out this kind of info I'd really appreciate it.

Cheers

Bill

1998-France-Adidas
1994-Brazil-Nike
1990-Germany-Adidas
1986-Argentina-Adidas
1982-Italy-?? they now use Nike, but they didn't in '82
1978-Argentina-should be Adidas as all next, cause Adidas had monopol on it for a long time. Of course it's rather hard to say who made the kits back in 30s, but...
1974-Germany
1970-Brazil
1966-England-now uses Umbro, but back then... ?
1962-Brazil
1958-Brazil
1954-Germany
1950-Uruguay
1946-was no WC
1942-was no WC
1938-Italy
1934-Italy
1930-Uruguay

Helped?

actually Brazil used Umbro in 94, and in 82 I think Italy used Diadora or Lotto because I remember Italy using Diadora in 90 and 94

Aek11, are you sure about that? I can't believe it, because:

1. Brazil uses Nike even now and NTs don't change their kits that often

2. WC94 was in USA and it was a turning point to break Adidas' monopol on kits. Nike as an US corporation, started a war and got quite many teams to wear their kits. And who's better for promotion than Brazil?

I will actually look it up, cause Umbro seems too weird...
