São Paulo To Sign Under Armour Kit Deal
Dec 17, 2014, by Chris
Brazilian club FC São Paulo will sign a five-years kit deal with US brand Under Armour, according to several Brazilian sports newspapers. Under Armour will present the inaugural São Paulo 2015 Kits in May 2015, when the current contract with Penalty expires. In early December 2014, Penalty presented the last FC São Paulo Jersey, to be worn in the first half of 2015.
São Paulo Under Armour Kit Deal Details
According to globoesporte.com, FC São Paulo and Under Armour will announce a five-year kit deal in early 2015. FC São Paulo will receive approximately 22m Euro (R$ 75m) in total (4.4 million Euro / year). Under Armour will provide the sporting goods for all FC São Paulo teams including kits and training jerseys.
With the new FC São Paulo Jersey Deal, Under Armour will enter the Brazilian market. It is the first major Under Armour deal in Brazil. Some months ago, it was also reported that Santos will sign a kit deal with Under Armour, which was denied recently. It was also rumoured that São Paulo signed a five-year kit deal with Puma some months ago, which proved to be incorrect.
Some weeks ago, FC São Paulo players Aidar and Rogério Ceni were spotted wearing Under Armour Soccer Boots, while it is also reported that Luis Fabiano will also wear Under Armour Cleats soon. Under Armour produces the kits for several soccer teams including Tottenham and Cruz Azul.
Nick Woltemade Spotted in Camouflaged Adidas F50 Boots Disguised as Predator 26
German forward Nick Woltemade has once again caught the attention of boot spotters following his loan switch to Juventus for the 26-27 season. In training sessions with the Bianconeri, the 24-year-old was seen wearing a bespoke pair of Adidas boots featuring a clever optical illusion: a laceless Adidas F50 speed boot disguised as a Predator 26. Big thanks to sr4u.
At first glance, the footwear mimics the visual language of the Predator silo, complete with simulated rubber strike elements and bold graphic patterning. A closer look, however, immediately reveals the telltale silhouette of the laceless F50. The boots feature the aerodynamic shape, seamless upper, and lightweight sole plate of the speed boot, with the Predator rubber fins merely printed onto the smooth synthetic shell rather than physically present.
This is not the first time Woltemade has turned heads with this specific setup. He was previously spotted in similar disguised F50 boots while on international duty with Germany earlier this year. Custom camouflage of this variety typically occurs when a player relies on the lightweight build and locked-in feel of a speed silo while marketing alignment or personal styling favors the identity of another line.
CA Peñarol 2026 135th Anniversary Kit Released - Honoring CURCC Roots
Puma and Uruguayan giants Club Atlético Peñarol have officially unveiled a special commemorative kit celebrating the club's 135th anniversary. Founded on September 28, 1891, as the Central Uruguay Railway Cricket Club (CURCC), Peñarol traditionally honors its rich history each September with a bespoke commemorative release.
The Peñarol 2026 135th anniversary shirt takes direct inspiration from the early uniforms worn during the team's formative years. It features a distinctive half-and-half layout, combining a solid black left side with thin yellow and black vertical stripes running down the right. The long sleeves mirror the split design of the body, complemented by a classic black polo collar detailed with subtle yellow trim.
Completing the heritage aesthetic, a retro CURCC shield encircled by golden laurel branches replaces the club's contemporary badge on the chest. The reverse side features vintage stitched-effect white numbering and the historic Decano inscription above the player name, while all sponsor logos appear in gold.
Sporting Cristal 26-27 Special Kit Released
Puma and Peruvian powerhouse Sporting Cristal have officially launched a special retro kit for the 26-27 season. The limited-edition release pays homage to one of the most celebrated eras in the club's history, faithfully reviving their iconic look from the early 1970s.
The Puma Sporting Cristal 26-27 special jersey comes in a rich royal blue base, contrasted by clean white trim along the crew-neck collar and sleeve cuffs. Presented in an authentic long-sleeve cut, the shirt prominently features the club's vintage crest on the left chest, complete with the Peruvian flag motif across the top. With a subtle Puma cat logo and the total absence of front-of-shirt sponsors, the kit maintains an ultra-clean, collector-focused aesthetic reminiscent of the 1970 and 1972 title-winning teams.
The new special shirt joins Sporting Cristal's 2026 wardrobe alongside the previously launched home kit and vibrant geometric third strip, offering fans a timeless piece of club heritage.
FC Tokyo 26-27 Third Kit Released
J1 League club FC Tokyo has officially revealed its new 26-27 third kit produced by New Balance. Following the club's full collection unveiled earlier in the summer, the new third uniform builds on the overarching dawn theme with a distinct design concept titled "THE BORDERLESS BALANCE".
The New Balance FC Tokyo 26-27 third shirt combines New Balance's signature gray tone with deep navy to capture the transition from night to dawn over the capital. Subtle red gradient streaks emerge along the shoulders and bottom hem, adding a dynamic accent to the dark base. All sponsor logos and the FC Tokyo crest are applied in clean monochrome white, creating a sleek lifestyle-friendly look.
FC Tokyo will debut the 26-27 third kit in J1 League action in February 2027 against V-Varen Nagasaki and JEF United Chiba.
No More Hummel: Stimulus Puerto Rico 2026 Home & Away Kits Released
The Puerto Rican Football Federation (FPF) has officially launched its new home and away kits for the 26-27 cycle, marking the beginning of a technical partnership with American sportswear brand Stimulus Athletic. The Minneapolis-based custom kit maker takes over the apparel duties for El Huracán Azul, officially replacing previous supplier Hummel.
The new home shirt boasts a bold geometric pattern in deep blue and black shades, inspired by the historic cobblestones of Old San Juan alongside the luminous glow of Puerto Rico's world-famous bioluminescent bays. The striking mosaic extends across the entire front and sleeves, complemented by subtle teal accents along the collar and cuff trims. Black shorts and blue socks complete the primary uniform.
In contrast, the away jersey provides a crisp white design adorned with details drawn directly from the national flag. It features dynamic red striping down the flanks that fades into a digital gradient towards the hem, flanked by cyan and red accents on the collar and sleeve cuffs. Both shirts are available for $80 through the official FPF online store, alongside dedicated goalkeeper versions.
