2016-17 Bundesliga Kits Overview - All 16-17 Shirts
The latest of the big European leagues to start into the 2016-17 season, we want to take a look at the German Bundesliga and all new kits unveiled by its 18 teams over the past few of months. Title holder Bayern Munich will open the season on Friday night against Werder Bremen.
Augsburg
Made by Nike once again, the new Augsburg 16-17 home, away and third kits are all based on various of the brand's teamwear templates.
Bayern Munich
Inspired by the kit worn for the first season at Allianz Arena, ten years ago, the new Bayern Munich home kit introduces a clean look with a polo collar and white shorts. The Bayern Munich 2016-2017 away kit is fashion-inspired, while the third kit is kept rather understated and classy.
Darmstadt
Made by small German brand Jako, the Darmstadt 16-17 home kit features a bold and unique look. The away kit looks quite bland in comparison.
Borussia Dortmund
Whereas the Borussia Dortmund third kit got carried over from last season (and is unlikely to be used anyway), both the Dortmund 16-17 home kit and the Dortmund 16-17 away kit are new and feature bespoke designs.
Eintracht Frankfurt
A first in club history, the Eintracht Frankfurt 16-17 home kit boasts a black-and-white striped look, while the away kit is almost entirely red. A teamwear-based, yellow third kit was unveiled in addition.
SC Freiburg
Back in the first division again, SC Freiburg is now supplied by Hummel following the end of the previous contract with Nike.
Hamburger SV
Drawing inspiration from one of the club's most iconic shirts ever, the Hamburg 16-17 away kit is pink. A traditional home shirt was unveiled in addition, whereas the third kit was carried over from the 2015-16 season.
Hertha BSC
Made by Nike and featuring bespoke designs, the new Hertha BSC 16-17 home and away kits are rather understated and traditional. In order to avoid color clashes, a teamwear-based third kit was also presented.
FC Ingolstadt
Although they are based on Adidas' miadidas service, the new Ingolstadt kits feature quite unique designs thanks to either bold use of color.
1899 Hoffenheim
The new Hoffenheim 16-17 kits are once again made by Lotto, with the new home and away kits incorporating the logo of main sponsor SAP into the respective designs.
1. FC Köln
Made by Erima, a small German brand, the new Köln 16-17 home, away and third kits feature the brand's clean, understated aesthetic.
Mainz 05
The Mainz 16-17 kits are made by Lotto and feature Kömmerling as sponsor. Whereas the home shirt looks almost exactly like its predecessor, the Mainz 2016-17 away and third shirts are more adventurous.
RB Leipzig
Set to compete in the Bundesliga for the first time in history, RasenBallsport Leipzig have received custom, and not teamwear kits from Nike.
Bayer Leverkusen
One of many teams to switch kit suppliers ahead of the 2016-2017 season, Leverkusen's new jerseys are produced by Jako instead of Adidas now.
Borussia Mönchengladbach
Borussia Mönchengladbach's 16-17 kits are made by Kappa and share a hoops-theme of sorts, as well as the rather obnoxious Postbank sponsor.
Schalke 04
Schalke is one of the last teams to still use a two-year kit release circle, at least in some way. Thus, only the home kit is new this season and both the away and third are carry-overs.
Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen's new kits are made by Nike once again. The home shirt introduces a hoop theme, while the away kit is purple. The new Bremen third shirt is based on Nike's Striker template, although it was decorated with some club-specific writing on the lower right side.
VfL Wolfsburg
Taking over from Kappa, Nike produced the Wolfsburg 16-17 home, away and third kits.

Haaland Trains in Leaked Nike Phantom 26-27 Signature Boots
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been spotted wearing his upcoming Nike Phantom 6 signature boots in training with the Norwegian team, confirming the exclusive leak from Footy Headlines. Created for the 26-27 season, the custom pair provides the first look yet at the high-end edition of the Norwegian star's next official on-pitch release.
The new signature boots feature a light blue base. A standout cloud-like graphic wraps around the heel and rear portion of the boot, adding a unique personalized touch to the design. Built on the Phantom 6 framework, the cleats boast Nike's Gripknit material across the upper for optimal ball control alongside the Cyclone 360 soleplate for rotational traction.
Nike is set to launch the Erling Haaland 26-27 signature boots on October 1.
Adidas Argentina Messi Farewell Kit Leaked - 3 New Images
New images of the special commemorative Adidas Argentina kit created for Lionel Messi's final international appearance have been shared by the @TheShirtUnion. The legendary playmaker is scheduled to wear this tribute shirt in his farewell game for the national team against Benin at the Estadio Monumental on October 6, 2026.
Nigeria to Leave Nike and Return to Adidas in Record 2027 Kit Deal
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is set to part ways with Nike after an 11-year partnership and make a high-profile return to Adidas starting in January 2027. The switch will conclude an era with the Swoosh that began in 2015 and produced some of the most iconic and culturally celebrated football shirts of recent times, headlined by the viral 2018 World Cup collection.
The new agreement with Adidas is worth an estimated $8.5 million per year, making it the largest publicly disclosed kit deal in African football history. The contract breaks down into $4.5 million in cash alongside $4 million in kits, equipment, and apparel annually, accompanied by a 20% royalty on official merchandise sold in Nigeria. Nike's long-standing contract had remained static at around $1.5 million in total annual value, and the US brand ultimately declined to exercise its right to match Adidas' significantly enhanced proposal.
This marks a return to the Three Stripes for Nigeria for the first time since 2014. Adidas famously outfitted the Super Eagles during key eras of their history, including their World Cup debut in 1994 and their Africa Cup of Nations triumph in 2013. In tandem with the team sponsorship, Adidas plans to expand its retail footprint across Nigeria to over 30 stores, ensuring vastly improved distribution and accessibility of official gear for supporters.
India 26-27 Home, Away & Third Kits Released
The All India Football Federation (AIFF) and technical sponsor Nivia Sports have officially launched the new India 26-27 home, away, and third kits. The new collection will be worn in the high-profile series of international friendlies against Panama, Brazil, and Uruguay.
The India 26-27 home shirt features a vibrant light blue base combined with bright orange accents on the side panels, V-neck collar, and sleeve cuffs. Subtly woven into the fabric is a peacock feather jacquard pattern, complemented by patterned ethnic-inspired taping running down the shoulders and golden piping framing the front. In line with the rest of the collection, the AIFF crest is centrally aligned on the chest, with the Nivia logo situated just below.
Completing the range, the away jersey arrives in dark blue with clean white contrast piping along the collar, cuffs, and shoulder inserts for a classic aesthetic. The third kit switches to an energetic saffron orange look accented by rich blue side panels and sleeve trim, mirroring the shoulder pattern details from the primary strip.
Adidas Argentina Messi Farewell Player & Keeper Kit Leaked - Official Pictures
We can leak official images of the Adidas Argentina commemorative collection celebrating Lionel Messi ahead of his final international appearance for the Albiceleste.

Inter Miami 2026-2027 Home Kit Leaked - Return of Long-Sleeve Kits in MLS
We can leak images of the Adidas Inter Miami 2026-2027 home kit in the authentic long-sleeve version. It is remarkable because Adidas has not made long-sleeve MLS kits available for almost a decade. While the images show a counterfeit, they match the information about a massive return of Adidas long-sleeve kits. More to follow very soon.
Jordan PSG 26-27 Fourth Kit Leaked - Launch Mockups
Following the leak of the Jordan Paris Saint-Germain 26-27 fourth shirt, our partner What The Kit has created a stylish series of launch mockups depicting how the kit will look on the club's star players. Set to debut in early 2027 as part of Jordan's upcoming "Wings 2.0" collection themed "Greatness from Greater Paris", the design revives the iconic wing motif first introduced during the 24-25 campaign. The new iteration switches to a predominantly white and light grey base adorned with subtle urban graffiti graphics, framed by contrasting black Jordan wings that cascade down the shoulders and sleeves, particularly standing out in the long-sleeve version.
