Valencia 16-17 Home & Away Kits Released
Entering its third season as Valencia shirt supplier, Adidas today launched two new Valencia kits this summer. The new Valencia 16-17 home and away shirts prominently feature orange trim in a move that is sure to please the fans of Los Che.
Adidas became Valencia kit supplier in 2014, signing an initial five-year contract. Although this deal won't run out until the end of the 2018-19 season, it was recently reported that the club has an option to cancel it preliminary and that Under Armour would be in pole position to become Valencia's shirt sponsor from 2017-18.
Valencia 16-17 Home Kit
This is the new Valencia home shirt by Adidas.
After this seasons's Valencia jersey brought a very low-key design in only black and white, the new Valencia 16-17 home kit prominently features orange detailing to complement the traditionally white base.
Adidas utilizes a very bold color called "Solar Orange" for crew-neck collar, as well as the lateral Adidas stripes and the sleeve cuffs. Both the collar and the sleeve cuffs of the new Valencia 2016-17 shirt also feature black trim, resulting in a very balanced and clean look overall.
Black shorts and white socks, both with accents in orange, complete the Valencia 2016-2017 home kit.
Valencia 16-17 Away Kit
This is the new Valencia 2016-17 away jersey.
Not only is orange used as secondary color on the new home shirt, it also features prominently on the predominantly black Valencia away jersey, for example in the form of piping on the inside of the neck, the sleeve cuffs and the laterally positioned Adidas stripes.
Additionally, the new Valencia 16-17 away shirt boasts subtle striping on the front and a traditional henley collar.
The shorts of the Valencia 2016-17 away kit are orange and the socks are black.

New Adidas Three Stripes Become Even Thicker Sometimes
The new Adidas 2026-2027 kits have been worn around the whole of Europe this weekend. With more and more on-pitch debuts, another feature of the new kits becomes obvious.
Instead of utilizing traditional stitched-on fabric strips or standard heat-pressed decals, the famous Three Stripes are now directly engineered into the woven fabric of the side panels. This has the effect that the bigger 3 stripes get even bigger when the shirt is stretched.
Umbro Launches Nations 2026 Collection
Umbro has released the Nations collection, inspired by the 2026 World Cup. The designs are available for **Brazil, Argentina, France, England, Japan and Morocco**. Rather than official team replicas, the pieces feature authorial reinterpretations with custom color palettes, exclusive graphics, crests and typography developed specifically for the project.
Each jersey includes symbolic details tied to the respective nation's identity, balancing minimalist and bolder approaches. Umbro Brazil director Eduardo Dal Pogetto noted that the aim was to go beyond traditional sportswear and create pieces representing the energy and identity of various nations with a modern outlook for daily use.
The jerseys are available now on the official Umbro Brazil website and select retailers, priced at R$349.99.
Arsenal Switches to Home Kit for Title Celebrations
After securing the Premier League title while playing in their Trefoil-adorned third kit, the Arsenal squad made a deliberate wardrobe change into their traditional 25-26 red and white home kit to actually lift the trophy.
This evokes memories of FC Barcelona, who famously wore orange but switched to their home shirt for the title lifting. In contrast to Arsenal, Barcelona just switched the shirt and kept the orange shorts and socks.

Atalanta, Marseille & Wolfsburg Change Logos for 26-27 Season
Vietnamese kit freaks Chuyện Áo Đấu have created a nice infographic of three European teams' logo changes for the 26-27 season. All of them have one thing in common - they are circular.
The underlying reasoning for this widespread circular design trend across modern football is primarily driven by digital functionality and commercial scalability. Circular, stripped-down logos provide a sense of visual balance and are significantly easier to apply across various media, ranging from tiny social media avatars to global lifestyle merchandise.
However, this rush toward extreme minimalism is increasingly alienating traditional football supporters and risking a severe homogenization of the sport's visual landscape.
For Wolfsburg, the change was praised by fans, as the Zinnen crest has been the fans' favorite design ever since. For Atalanta, it was also rooted in history, while OM was the biggest update.
