Best football jerseys of 2025/2026
This summer has been no different, with almost all the clubs revealing what jerseys they will use for the 2025/2026 season.
We look at some of the best jerseys.
10. Ajax home (Adidas)
The Dutch club unveiled a club to commemorate the 750th anniversary of the City of Amsterdam. It features a classic logo on the chest with a subtle pattern of red crosses running through the red stripe.
9. PSG home (Nike)
The new European champions released a midnight navy design that pays tribute to Paris' architectural heritage. There is a French flag trim on the sleeve cuffs.
8. Real Madrid (Adidas)
The jersey has similar characteristics to the one Cristiano Ronaldo wore in his debut season in 2009, which evokes very glorious memories. It is anchored on its traditional white base with white and yellow lines.
The away jersey has a dark navy blue base with silver logos, which pays tribute to Santiago Bernabeu's stunning appearance at night.
7. Bayern Munich (Adidas)
The kit is based on the traditional classic red and white colours, featuring a large 'M' on the front to represent Munich.
The away kit is grey and coral, which resembles an outer shell.
6. Manchester United (Adidas)
Manchester United's home kit is the traditional red jersey with black stripes on the shoulders and the sleeves.
The away kit has a white and light lavender base with dark purple accents, which draws inspiration from the 1990/1992 season.
5. Manchester City (Puma)
For their crosstown rivals, Puma has gone with a diagonal white slash across the light blue jersey, which features on the home jersey for the first time after previous appearances in the third kits.
The away jersey is predominantly black, seen in the 2023/2024 season with white logos to provide the balance.
4. Juventus (Adidas)
The Old Lady has once again gone for a drop of pink on their traditional colours of black and white stripes, which they used in the 2019/2020 campaign.

The away kit is inspired by the flag of Turin and Italy’s shimmering coastal waters, featuring pastel blue, yellow, and white colours.
3. Chelsea (Nike)
Still without a front shirt sponsor, Nike have released the traditional blue textured jersey and a V-shaped white collar inspired by the Town Hall kit.
The away kit, meanwhile, has received a lot of plaudits for its off-white design with military green and bold red accents, which resembles the colours of the Hungarian flag as captured on the club's store.
2. Newcastle United (Adidas)
Adidas has maintained the traditional black and white colours but introduced a refreshing drop of blue.
1. Arsenal (Adidas)
The Gunners have maintained their red and white colours, but this time it has a distinctive 'Gothic A' on the front, which employs the human heart as the creative touch.
The away kit is yet to be officially released, but the rumours have it that it will be reminiscent of the 2021/2022 kit that had the 'lightning bolt' with a red trim along the sides.
