The new Germany 2014 Home Kit with four stars and the World Cup Winners Badge helped to further increase sales.
The Germany 2014 Home Shirt sales were already strong going into the tournament and were boosted further after the World Cup win and the reissue with the fourth star and the World Cup winners badge. Remarkably, one third of the Germany shirts was sold outside of Germany, showing the global appeal of the German national team and its Adidas wear.
Compared to major club teams, the Germany 2014 shirt sales look even more special. Between 2009-10 and 2013-14 Real Madrid, who had the highest sales during the period, sold a little over 1.5 million shirts a year, followed by Manchester United, FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

Cerro Porteño 2026 Third Kit Released: 1990s Puma Remake
Puma has officially unveiled the new 2026 third kit for Paraguayan Primera División side Cerro Porteño. The release leans heavily into nostalgia, offering a direct modern recreation of one of the club's most beloved vintage shirts from the late 1990s.
The new Cerro Porteño 2026 third shirt is built on a white base, sharply contrasted by solid dark blue sleeves and vibrant red detailing on the classic polo collar and sleeve cuffs. The most prominent design element is the large, sublimated grey graphic covering the front and back of the torso, which faithfully replicates the stylized "CP" monogram watermark found on the original 1999 kit.
The 2026 third kit serves as a great tribute to the famous "Pinturas Renner" era.

Viktoria Köln 26-27 Third Kit Released
German 3. Liga side Viktoria Köln has officially unveiled its new third kit for the 2026-2027 season. Produced by Joma, the new release embraces a deeply nostalgic "Viktoria-Vintage" aesthetic to celebrate the club's roots. This launch also marks a significant off-pitch reunion, as the team will once again feature the logo of the ETL-Gruppe across the chest, welcoming back their long-time former main sponsor for the upcoming campaign.
The Joma Viktoria Köln 26-27 third shirt opts for a classic black and white color palette that leans heavily into retro football fashion. Both the Joma manufacturer logo and the Viktoria Köln club crest have been modified to perfectly match the monochrome aesthetic, blending seamlessly into the design. To complete the vintage look, the jersey is equipped with a traditional polo collar, purposely designed by the club to function equally well as a stylish lifestyle piece for fans to wear casually away from the pitch.
The new Viktoria Köln 2026-2027 third kit is currently available for pre-order via the club's official online store, with physical deliveries expected to begin in late June.
Special Castore Slavia Prague 25-26 'Fight Against Cancer' Kit Revealed
SK Slavia Praha has unveiled a special-edition kit to be worn during their final match of the season against Viktoria Plzeň this Sunday.
Produced by Castore and designed in collaboration with renowned Czech artist Pasta Oner, the bespoke jersey is entirely dedicated to raising awareness for the fight against cancer. The club has confirmed that all match-worn shirts will subsequently be auctioned off to the highest bidders, complete with certificates of authenticity, with the entirety of the proceeds going directly to support three specific individuals - Peter, Kuba, and Verč- in their personal battles with the disease.
The design of the Slavia Prague charity kit boasts vibrant shades of purple and magenta. The most striking element of the shirt is the massive white awareness ribbon dominating the front.
The bespoke detailing continues on the reverse side of the jersey, where the lower back features a bold, custom graphic reading "Fight For Your Life!" in a stylized, artistic font.

Peñarol 2026 'Pinerolo' Third Kit Released
Puma and Uruguayan giants Peñarol have officially unveiled the club's new 2026 third kit, a design deeply rooted in the institution's historical origins.
The new Peñarol 2026 third kit pays homage to the railway industry that birthed the club and the Italian town of Pinerolo, the namesake of the team's original founder. According to the club's official release, the chosen color palette is highly symbolic: gold represents the trailblazing locomotives, black signifies the coal that powered them forward, and a deep green stands for the living memory of those origins.
The Peñarol 2026 third shirt features a dark green and black base characterized by an all-over, tonal zig-zag graphic pattern. This dark foundation is sharply contrasted by elegant metallic gold accents applied to the Puma logo, the central Antel sponsor, and the BBVA sleeve branding. A sleek black polo collar with a gold triangular insert at the neckline, paired with matching gold trim on the sleeve cuffs, gives the kit a refined, classic aesthetic. The club's iconic crest is also adapted to seamlessly fit the theme, presented in a clean monochrome black and gold execution.
Adding to the bespoke nature of the release are several carefully placed historical details. A special emblem featuring the founding year "1891" intertwined and surrounded by a gold laurel wreath is printed on the lower side of the jersey, while the word "Pinerolo" sits proudly on the upper back to complete the tribute. The kit successfully merges a modern, stylish template with a profound respect for the club's 19th-century railway heritage.

Juventus 26-27 Away Goalkeeper Kit Leaked

The kit displays the classic Trefoil logo alongside a retro Juventus crest. This matches the vintage aesthetic of the Juventus 26-27 away kit.
Gold Arsenal 26-27 Premier League Sleeve Badge
Arsenal have officially been crowned champions of the 25-26 Premier League season after Manchester City dropped points against Bournemouth.

This marks the first time in 22 years that the gold sleeve badge will return to an Arsenal kit.
Adidas, Nike & Puma All Use Pink for 2026 World Cup
With the 2026 World Cup just around the corner, the highly anticipated tournament boot collections from the "Big Three" are finally coming into full view. In a massive and highly unusual coincidence, Adidas, Nike, and Puma have all selected the exact same primary color for the world's biggest football festival: pink.
Both Nike and Adidas have opted for a nearly identical colorway formula, heavily utilizing a striking mix of pink, white, and black across all of their respective silos. Puma is also fully embracing the trend, though they have introduced a slight variation to stand out. Their pack features a vibrant pink mixed with bright orange gradients, with the notable exception of the King 20 model, which features a predominantly white base with pink detailing.
With all three major sportswear giants completely aligning on this bold hue, we can be absolutely certain that a sea of pink will dominate the pitches across North America this summer.
However, this shared color palette is going to create a very unique issue during the tournament. With the vast majority of players wearing the exact same vibrant shade, it is going to be incredibly difficult for fans and boot spotters to quickly identify specific brands and models from a distance during television broadcasts.
