October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease.

Each shirt is based on the current home shirt design with pink replacing the normal club color.
New Puma Project Pink Football Kits for Club Atlas, Rayados and Santos Laguna
The new pink Puma Santos Laguna 2014 Kit features pink horizontal hoops on the front, based on the current home shirt design. The sleeves and the collar of the new Santos Laguna 2014 Jersey are also black, while the Puma Project Pink logo is printed on the left sleeve.
For the pink Monterrey 2014 Kit, Puma uses the iconic striped kit design of the "Rayados" (the striped ones) to create a white / pink vertical striped kit. It is based on the Puma Monterrey 2014-2015 Home Kit.
The traditional black / red Club Atlas half-and-half kit design received a pink paint job to create a remarkable kit design for the new black / pink Club Atlas Project Pink Kit.
Project Pink is Puma's initiative to support the fight against breast cancer. Puma will donate parts of the profits from the sale of PUMA Project Pink gear.

Puma Ultraweave Kits Continue to Tear at 2026 World Cup
During the 2026 World Cup, Puma kits have become a major talking point due to a series of high-profile tearing incidents. Across the first four rounds of the tournament, six different shirts have ripped during matches. Players from the Czech Republic, Paraguay, Egypt, and Morocco have all experienced torn jerseys following physical challenges and shirt-pulling on the pitch. Notably, kits from other manufacturers have not suffered from similar durability issues during the competition. Big thanks to @jerseystory_vn.
The root of the problem lies in the construction of the Puma Ultraweave fabric. Designed to be incredibly lightweight at just 72 grams, the material features a four-way stretch recycled polyester blend. While the brand states this ultra-light design was driven by player feedback to reduce weight and drag, the extremely thin fabric has proven highly vulnerable to tearing under the stress of grabbing and pulling in a high-contact sport.
With the knockout stages underway, the durability of the Puma kits remains a concern. Several Puma-sponsored nations are still competing in the tournament, including Austria, Ivory Coast, the Netherlands, Portugal, Senegal, and Switzerland. As the stakes get higher and matches become more physical, fans and kit enthusiasts will be watching to see if the Ultraweave fabric can hold up to the pressure of international football.

The Fanatics V-Varen Nagasaki 2026-27 home shirt features a bespoke design in the club's traditional colors. The away shirt offers a clean contrasting look, while the goalkeeper kits round off the collection with their own distinct colorways. All shirts carry the Fanatics logo on the right chest alongside the V-Varen Nagasaki crest on the left.
The Fanatics V-Varen Nagasaki 2026-27 home and away kits are available to purchase via the club's official online store.
Official: Le Havre Announces Hummel Kit Deal - No More Umbro
French club Le Havre AC has officially announced Hummel as its new kit supplier, starting from the 2026-27 season. This confirms previous reports of the club ending its short-lived partnership with Umbro after just one season.
