RC Lens and Adidas have officially unveiled a special kit for RC Lens Féminin in support of the annual Octobre Rose breast cancer awareness campaign. Rather than serving strictly as a temporary one-off initiative for the month of October, the club has introduced the shirt as the women's side's official fourth kit for the 26-27 season. Under the campaign motto "Faire durer le rose, faire vivre la cause" (Make pink last, keep the cause alive), the team will wear the strip across the entire season to maintain continuous support for the cause.
The Adidas RC Lens Féminin 26-27 fourth jersey is built on a clean white base paired with light pink gradient vertical stripes fanning out across the front. Upon closer inspection, the pink stripes incorporate subtle micro-patterns consisting of the breast cancer awareness pink ribbon and the RC Lens crest silhouette. All sponsor prints, the modern Adidas logo, and the club badge are rendered in monochrome black to provide sharp contrast against the light backdrop.
The shirt was first seen during warm-ups by the men's first team ahead of their match against Lyon, while the women's squad will debut it on October 17 against RC Strasbourg in the Arkema Première Ligue. The limited-edition jersey will be available to purchase on October 17 for €100, complete with official league badges and sponsors, with proceeds going to cancer research and support organizations via the Racing Cœur de Lens endowment fund.
