Marshall Islands Soccer Federation / PlayerLayer: The No Home JerseyTop 6 this week
The Marshall Islands Soccer Federation (MISF) and sports brand PlayerLayer have come up with a striking and innovative way to draw global attention to their national football team’s plight: a national football jersey designed… to disappear. The Marshall Islands, a small island nation in the Pacific, is the only one of the 193 UN member states without an officially recognised national football team. Despite having players, a federation, and a football field, the process of recognition has been slow. Yet, time is not a luxury for the Marshall Islands, where rising sea levels threaten to erase the nation before its team can ever play an official match. To bring attention to this urgent issue and speed up the process, the 2030 No-Home Jersey was created. Designed by Matías Otero, it features indigenous symbols like the outrigger canoe, Plumeria flower, and Great White Shark. It’s emblazoned with the symbolic number 1.5, highlighting the threat of rising temperatures, and the slogan “We deserve to thrive,” from poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner, reflecting the nation’s fight against climate change. But to make sure that the jersey will generate the conversations it deserves, there was a twist. The jersey literally disappeared, piece by piece.
