It’s been another busy week or so since we last caught up on kit unveilings from across Europe’s top domestic soccer leagues here at SportsLogos.net. In that time, a slew of new kits have been released in England, Germany, Italy, France and Spain. Here’s a closer look at all the releases that crossed our desk:

1f3f4 e0067 e0062 e0065 e006e e0067 e007f MANCHESTER UNITED – Away

Manchester United put a new spin on a favourite design element with their 2025-26 away kits, made by adidas. The white base of the jersey contains a “modern interpretation” of the club’s snowflake graphic — which first appeared on United’s kits in the early 1990s — in light purple. The devil from the club crest is a darker purple, as are sponsor logos, the adidas logo on the chest and the shoulder stripes.


1f3f4 e0067 e0062 e0065 e006e e0067 e007f ASTON VILLA – Home

While other claret-and-blue teams in the English Premier League (i.e., West Ham and Burnley) have downplayed blue in their 2025-26 home kits, Aston Villa have cranked it up on theirs, made by adidas. The claret base is accentuated by full light blue raglan sleeves, along with gold piping and white shoulder stripes. Gold details in the claret sleeve cuffs mimic some of the architectural details around their home ground, Villa Park.


1f3f4 e0067 e0062 e0065 e006e e0067 e007f AFC BOURNEMOUTH – Home

Fellow Premier League side AFC Bournemouth put a coastal twist on their traditional red and black stripes for their 2025-26 home kit, made by Umbro. Each stripe on the shirt has a “subtle sand-textured pattern … inspired by the golden shores of Bournemouth’s coastline,” according to the club. “This nod to the town’s natural beauty is paired with sharp red pinstripes and refined gold detailing.” The sleeves and crew neck collar are solid black with gold trim.


1f3f4 e0067 e0062 e0065 e006e e0067 e007f CRYSTAL PALACE – Home

Premier League side Crystal Palace is going retro with its 2025-26 home kit, made by Macron. The club’s traditional red and blue stripes are slightly narrower and brighter than in recent years and are separated by narrow white stripes. The sleeves are red with broad blue and white stripes running from the shoulder to the cuff. The V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs are white with red and blue stripes.


1f3f4 e0067 e0062 e0065 e006e e0067 e007f NOTTINGHAM FOREST – Home

Still in England, Nottingham Forest draws on their Premier League squads from the past for the inspiration for their 2025-26 home kits, made by Adidas. The red base features white pinstripes down the front — a design element first introduced in 1982 — along with darker red pinstripes. The polo collar and sleeve cuffs have white trim. The club crest sits inside a red shield with a white outline.


🇮🇹 SSC NAPOLI – Home and Away

Defending Italian Serie A champions SSC Napoli are looking for a little drama with their home and away kits for 2025-26, made by Emporio Armani. Both kits celebrate the theatre traditions of Naples. The sky blue home kit does so through tonal pinstripes and a repeating stencil ‘N’ pattern woven into the fabric. Meanwhile, the away kit is sand-coloured and has a tonal pattern incorporating nine different elements of Neapolitan identity, from Pulcinella’s mask — representing “cunning, irony and the ability to deal with difficulties” — to a head of garlic, “a powerful talisman against evil.” As defending champs, Napoli will wear the scudetto Italian flag shield on all their kits in 2025-26.


🇮🇹 ACF FIORENTINA – Away

For the first time in the Italian club’s history, ACF Fiorentina has unveiled separate away kits, made by Kappa, for its men’s and women’s first teams. Both tonal designs on the white base are inspired by the façade of the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella in Florence, but “they have different details and interpretations.” The men’s kit focuses on the basilica’s concentric circles, which radiate out from under the club crest, while the women’s kit “recalls the geometric rectangles that frame the central rose window.” The men also have purple sleeve cuffs, while the women have pink details “inspired by the marbles of the basilica.”


🇮🇹 UDINESE CALCIO – Home

Serie A side Udinese Calcio turn back the clock for inspiration for their 2025-26 home kits, made by Macron. Twenty years after first wearing curved black-and-white stripes, Udinese brings the look back but reverses it with white stripes on a black base. The stripes fade out with a geometric pattern as they reach either the sides of the jersey or a sponsor logo. The collar and sleeve cuffs are grey with black and white trim, and white stripes run down the length of each sleeve.


🇮🇹 HELLAS VERONA – Home

Serie A side Hellas Verona present their club colours of yellow and blue in a new way on their 2025-26 home kit, made by Joma. The blue base features an embossed pattern all over and swirling yellow graphics near the hem and on the sleeves. Yellow panels appear under the arms, and the crew neck collar has two yellow stripes at the front.


🇮🇹 US LECCE – Away

Serie A side US Lecce completes their triad of 2025-26 kits with their away kit, made in-house through their M908 brand. The white base of the kit has the same woven pattern that appears on their red-and-yellow striped home kit, with a yellow band outlined in red, white and blue running all the way around the chest and back. The V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs are yellow with red and blue stripes.


🇪🇸 GIRONA FC – Away

Spanish La Liga side Girona FC are ready to shine in their bright yellow away kit for 2025-26, made by Puma. The solid yellow kit pays tribute to the senyera, the Catalan flag that appears on the club’s crest, and is rounded out with a black crew neck collar and sleeve cuffs.


🇪🇸 RCD ESPANYOL – Away

La Liga side RCD Espanyol is aiming for an “elegant and understated” that can be worn every day with their 2025-26 away kit, made by Kelme. The base of the kit is beige, with a pattern woven into the fabric of the shirt. The front of the blue polo collar and the sleeve cuffs feature white and blue squares, while the club crest is rendered in one-colour blue — the first time Espanyol have done this on an official kit. “These design elements highlight Espanyol’s identity, maintaining the club’s essence every step of the way,” the club says.


🇪🇸 LEVANTE UD – Home

After three seasons in La Liga 2, Levante UD are back in the top flight of Spanish football for the 2025-26 season, and they’ll mark the occasion with new home kits made by Macron. The kits pay tribute to the club’s original home ground, the Estadio de Vallejo in Valencia, which first opened 100 years ago, in 1925. Levante’s usual maroon and navy blue vertical stripes contain tonal diagonal lines and are accented by gold piping on the sleeves, cuffs and polo collar.


🇪🇸 ELCHE CF – Away

Another team returning to La Liga in 2025-26 is Elche CF, who are ready to wear their passion on their sleeves with their new Nike away kits. The black base of the kit is covered in a pattern of green and white brushstroke chevrons “reflecting the balance between modernity and tradition, and paying tribute to the identity of the Club and its fans.” The kit also has green inserts at the collarbones and green sleeve cuffs.


🇪🇸 VALENCIA CF – Away

La Liga side Valencia CF’s away kit for 2025-26, made by PUMA, brings a favourite colour back out of the vault. Dubbed “Torino” red, the deep red shade with burgundy hues is the second-most used colour (behind white) in Valencia’s history and is associated with many great moments since it was first used in the late 1920s. The 2025-26 version includes an abstract tonal pattern of the initials “VCF” along with an orange club crest and sponsor logos.


🇪🇸 ATHLETIC BILBAO – Third

La Liga side Athletic Bilbao pays homage to its 467 supporters clubs around the world with its 2025-26 third kit, made by Castore. The turqoise green kit features a “print of intertwined shields that symbolise the unbreakable bond between the fans, the players and the Basque people: an eternal connection that extends from Bilbao to all corners of the world.” The club crest is rendered in one-colour black, and the back half of the collar and the sleeve cuffs are solid black.


🇪🇸 RCD MALLORCA – Third

When striker Vedat Muriqi renewed his contract with the club, La Liga side RCD Mallorca took the opportunity to also introduce its third kit for 2025-26, made by Nike. The kit is predominantly black, with a red chevron across the chest that gives off Manchester United 2009-10 home kit vibes. A red insert sits at the front of the collar, and the back of the sleeve cuffs has a tapering red stripe.


🇪🇸 REAL BETIS – Away

With their 2025-26 away kits made by Hummel, La Liga side Real Betis pay tribute to the Heliópolis neighbourhood of their home city of Seville and the Benito Villamarín Stadium, which the team has called home since 1939. The base of the kit is sky blue with one white and two green diagonal stripes across the front, which also contains an embossed map of the Heliópolis neighbourhood. The front of the collar and the sleeve cuffs are split diagonally between green and white.


🇫🇷 AJ AUXERRE – Home and Away

French Ligue 1 club AJ Auxerre are aiming for modern classic looks with their home and away kits for 2025-26, made by Macron. The home kit is solid white with embossed Maltese crosses and blue stripes bordering both the crew neck collar and the sleeve cuffs. Blue triangular inserts appear at the hem, and the club crest and all sponsor logos are one-colour blue. The away kit, meanwhile, pays homage La Tour de l’Horloge, a famous clock tower in the city of Auxerre. Embossed graphics on the black base of the jersey depicts the face of the clock tower, while the sleeve cuffs and collar have white and blue trim.


🇫🇷 FC NANTES – Away

Ligue 1’s FC Nantes pay tribute to their home city with their 2025-26 away kit, made by Macron. The front of the light turquoise shirt features a map of the city of Nantes, anchored by a darker turquoise collar, sleeve cuffs and logo. This shade of turquoise was chosen because of Nantes’ connection to water, including the rivers and ocean surrounding the city. “NAONED” — the Breton form of the city’s name — is embossed on the back of the shirt.


🇫🇷 STADE DE REIMS – Home

French Ligue 1 side Stade de Reims have given their 2025-26 home kit, made by PUMA, a royal touch. The red body of the jersey is covered in a pattern of tonal crowns isolated from the club crest. The sleeves, side panels and V-neck collar are solid white, while the sleeve cuffs are red.


🇫🇷 STADE BRESTOIS 29 – Home

Another red home kit with white sleeves in Ligue 1 comes courtesy of Stade Brestois 29 and adidas. In this case, though, the red base of the jersey has embossed pinstripes down the front, and the white sleeves are raglan with red adidas shoulder stripes. White tapering panels run down the sides, and the polo collar is also white, including the placket.


🇫🇷 FC LORIENT – Third

FC Lorient celebrate their return to Ligue 1 and their 100th anniversary with their 2025-26 third kit, made by Joma. The black base of the kit is adorned with gold accents, including sponsor logos, the club crest, and two stripes through the V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs. The base also includes a tonal pattern of ermines from the flag of Brittany.


🇫🇷 FC METZ – Home

Back in France’s top flight, FC Metz hope to set Ligue 1 on fire in their 2025-26 home kits, made by Kappa. The kit is predominantly Metz’s traditional shade of burgundy, but some orange is incorporated in the eyes, tongue and fire breath of the dragon that appears on the right side of the front of the jersey. Orange also appears in the collar, sleeve cuffs and piping down the back of the shirt.


🇫🇷 TOULOUSE FC – Home

Opposites attract for Ligue 1 side Toulouse FC and their 2025-26 home kit, made by Nike. The half-purple, half-white jersey are “a reflection of characteristics that are completely opposite, but which make up the identity of Toulouse FC,” the clus says on its website (translated to English by Google). “White embodies intelligence, thoughtfulness, elegance, and calm. Purple is more energetic, instinctive, passionate, and fiery.” The kits are finished off with lighter purple collars and sleeve cuffs.


🇩🇪 BAYER LEVERKUSEN – Away

German Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen is taking their home city with them on the road with their 2025-26 away kit, made by New Balance. According to the club, “The jersey inspired by the colours and landmarks of Leverkusen stands out with a striking colouring of deep crimson to soft cream white and combines powerful industrial hues with refined natural elements. Red stands for the industrial charm of the city characterised by the Bayer Works. The soft colours plus floral shading alludes to the Japanese Garden, a famous Leverkusen landmark and one of the biggest and oldest of its type in Europe.” The front half of the crew neck collar is white, while the back half is red.


🇩🇪 EINTRACHT FRANKFURT – Home

Fellow Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt’s 2025-26 home kit, made by adidas, embraces the club’s traditional colours of red and black by putting them front and centre. The front of the shirt features three black vertical stripes and two red stripes, all bordered by white piping running down the sides and around the collar. Tapering red stripes run under the arms, while the back has a solid black panel for names and numbers.


🇩🇪 HAMBURGER SV – Away

Bundesliga side Hamburger SV are all about individuality, unity and diversity with their 2025-26 away kit, made by adidas. The white V-shape in the middle of the chest is “inspired by the iconic collar from HSV’s 80s kits and cleverly forms part of the HSV diamond” from the club crest. Above the V is black, while below is blue. The raglan sleeves are solid back, and white piping runs down the front.


🇩🇪 WERDER BREMEN – Home

Bundesliga side Werder Bremen celebrates how their home city moves with their 2025-26 home kit, made by Hummel. According to the club, the narrow white stripes on the front and sleeves of the green kit represent Bremen’s tram lines that carry thousands of fans to their stadium each matchday. Darker green side panels contain white Hummel chevrons, and dark green accents appear on the collar and sleeve cuffs.


🇩🇪 FC AUGSBURG – Away

German Bundesliga side FC Augsburg pays tribute to Swabia — the cultural, historic and linguistic region of southwest Germany the club calls home — with its 2025-26 away kit, made by Mizuno. The red base and yellow accents on the collar and sleeve cuffs mirror the colours of the Swabia coat of arms. And the tonal pattern all over the jersey “incorporates elements from the Swabian coat of arms in an abstract way.”


🇩🇪 FC ST. PAULI – Fourth

The kit is solid light blue with embossed vertical pinstripes on the front and white accents like the adidas shoulder stripes, piping and the front half of the V-neck collar. It’s also Union Berlin’s first kit with the logo of new front-of-shirt sponsor, Berlin-based financial technology company Raisin.


🇩🇪 1. FC KÖLN – Away
