The Egyptian fans present in Palermo at the 1990 World Cup became famous for wearing sailor hats.
Egypt's national team participated in the 90 World Cup in Italy, for the first time in 56 years, as the Pharaohs' first appearance was in the 1934 World Cup, which was also in Italy.
The sailor hat that Egyptian fans became famous for wearing in the 1990 World Cup is the traditional sailors' hat.
The fans wore the hats as a maritime symbol expressing the coastal identity of the city of Palermo, which hosted the team's matches, and it became closely associated with the Egyptian national team fans in that tournament.
Egypt is participating in the 2026 World Cup in the United States of America, Canada, and Mexico, for the fourth time in history.
The Pharaohs succeeded in crossing the group stage for the first time in history, as well as achieving the first victory in the tournament against New Zealand 3-1.
