Top 10 - The Best 2015-16 Kits
With the new season well underway and (almost) all new 2015-16 football kits released, let's take a look at the best new jerseys.
We concentrated our selection on Europe's leagues, with our picks including at least one kit from each of the top 5 leagues.
10 | Rayo Vallecano Away
Not always do good intentions work together with kit design as well as they do for the Rayo Vallecano away shirt. Promoting the fight for a good cause, the new away shirt sees the rainbow colors take over the club's classic sash.
Each colored line as well as the rainbow in total stands for a different organization that fights against discrimination.
9 | Lazio Away
Not exactly a new design as such, the Lazio away shirt follows on the iconic 1980s Lazio shirt designs as well as last season's remake. Nevertheless, the eagle looks great as ever in sky blue on black ground.
8 | Bologna Home
Not infrequently, great kit designs are ruined by sponsor logos, blatant in their appearance or large in numbers. But nothing of that bothers the Bologna home shirt.
Made by Italian brand Macron, the Bologna shirt boasts the club's traditional Rossoblu colors in a traditional design, completed with a classic polo collar and neat details in the cuffs of the differently-colored sleeves.
7 | Olympique Lyonnais Away
The new Lyon 15-16 away shirt is red with dark blue accents, creating a memorable and smart look. Colored navy with red trim, the collar stands out in the otherwise clean design of the new Lyon away kit.
6 | Eintracht Frankfurt Home
Going from a full-striped kit to pinstripes doesn't always bode well reactions from club's fanbase, as last season's Inter kit or Southampton's home shirt the year before showed.
Eintracht Frankfurt, anyway, had a history with pinstripes both in the 1970s and more recently. This, plus the initiative from shirt sponsor Alfa Romeo to recolor its logo to match the shirt's colors, makes the Eintracht Frankfurt home shirt an easy choice to love, both for fans of the club and football shirt lovers in general.
5 | Aston Villa Away
Yellow might not be Aston Villa's most common change shirt color, but the new Aston Villa away shirt shows that yellow and black can work just great for the club.
All logos on the shirts are colored in black, contributing to a very uniform design, without becoming to streamlined, thanks to the fashionable collar construction.
4 | Juventus Third
Although not officially released yet, the new Juventus third kit is without a doubt the best shirt in Adidas' first-ever set for the Italian giant. A black base is combined with golden accents, which even make the polka-dot mesh detailing look great.
3 | Torino Third
Boasting a powerful dark blue main color, the Torino 15-16 third kit impresses with a stunning rampant bull print made up of the names of important players in the rich history of il Toro.
The club's dark red and white colors are present in the unique collar and the sleeve cuffs of the Torino third jersey, while the inside of the neckline reads the club's #SempreForzaToro motto.
2 | Hamburger SV Away
Hamburg might have started the new season with a 5-0 thumping by Bayern München, but their stunning new away kit made a great first impression on the pitch nonetheless.
Combining turquoise, blue and white, the HSV third shirt does well to balance out the different elements, something that Adidas kits often lack.
1 | West Ham United Home
For the last-ever season at the iconic Boleyn Ground stadium, Umbro has prepared a stunning set with especially remarkable home and away kits for the London club. For this ranking we go with the claret-and-blue West Ham 15-16 home shirt.
The West Ham 15-16 shirt honors Boleyn Ground with a design inspired by the kits worn in the first years at the stadium more than 100 years ago, complete with gold details marking the important season for the club.
Knowing that this is a highly debatable post, let us hear your own top picks within the 15-16 jerseys. Drop us a line below.
FIFA Changes Brazil Goalkeeper Kit for Scotland Match
FIFA has implemented a late change to Brazil's goalkeeper kit for their 2026 World Cup Group C encounter with Scotland. Initially slated to wear a red outfit, the Brazilian goalkeeper will now wear green for the match on June 24.
The reasons for the switch are not known.
Official match kit graphics confirm the switch, showing the Brazil goalkeeper in a dark green jersey, paired with matching dark green shorts and socks. This green kit is one of the primary options in Brazil's wardrobe for the tournament. Their opponents, Scotland, will have their goalkeeper dressed in a grey kit.
The update was brought to attention by Brazilian kit specialists Mantos do Futebol. The released FIFA match kit table visually confirms the swap from the originally planned red Nike goalkeeper shirt to the green alternative, alongside the outfield kits of both nations.
Nike Creates Personalized Mercurial Superfly 11 Boots for Kylian Mbappé's France Goal Record

The bespoke boots feature several unique design elements to honor his achievement. The number 58 is prominently displayed on the lateral heel, accompanied by a small French tricolor flag positioned near the heel collar. Additionally, the sole plate is completely customized in the colors of the French flag, adding a distinct national touch to the standard Mercurial Superfly 11 silhouette.
Mbappé debuted the new boots during the match vs Iraq. As a custom creation specifically designed to mark his record-breaking achievement, the personalized boots remain exclusive to the player and will not be available for public retail release.

The collection includes home, away, and goalkeeper kits that all utilize the same thematic template with intricate graphic patterns across the body.
Pre-sales for the new Nara Club 2026-27 kits began on June 22.
UCAN Enters Europe: FC Volendam 26-27 Home Kit Released
The new FC Volendam 2026-27 home kit has been officially released, marking the first foray into the European market for the club's new technical sponsor, UCAN, a Chinese brand.
The design pays tribute to local culture, serving as an ode to Volendamse schilderkunst (Volendam painting art) with a unique graphic pattern incorporated into the traditional orange base. The FC Volendam 2026-27 home kit is available to purchase through the club's official fanshop and webshop.
Adidas Celebrates Messi Breaking the All-Time World Cup Goalscoring Record
Lionel Messi has officially become the all-time leading goalscorer in FIFA World Cup history, netting his 17th goal in Argentina's match against Austria on June 22, 2026. To celebrate this historic milestone, Adidas immediately published a dedicated graphic on their social media channels, crowning their signature athlete with the caption RECORD BREAKER. HISTORY MAKER. The goal moves Messi past Miroslav Klose's long-standing record of 16 World Cup goals.
The achievement comes just days after Messi scored a hat-trick earlier in the tournament to tie the record. During this historic 2026 World Cup run, Messi has been wearing the Adidas F50 'El Último Tango' signature boots.
Burgos CF 26-27 Away Kit Released
The new Burgos CF 2026-27 away kit was officially released today. Made by Macron, the new Burgos Club de Fútbol 2026-27 away jersey introduces an elegant design featuring a black base combined with gold accents and a subtle crown motif referencing the club's tradition.
A special detail on the back of the neck reads the honorific city motto, "Hay un oro que no se compra... se hereda" (There are values you can't buy... you inherit them), completing the classy look for the Spanish La Liga 2 side.
European National Teams Reimagined With Germany Home Shirt Template
Football kit account @The_Kit_Parade has reimagined various European national teams using Germany's 2026 World Cup home shirt template.
The graphic applies the distinct pattern to countries including England, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and Sweden. While the design adapts seamlessly to neutral and white bases, with the Irish, Dutch, and Welsh concepts receiving particular praise from fans, others like the Spanish edition proved more divisive due to clashing colors.
Official Images: Al Hilal 26-27 Home Kit Leaked
New images of the Al Hilal 2026-27 home kit have been leaked, giving us a better look at the design for the upcoming Saudi Pro League season. The images, originally shared by @a_z055 and @MidanAlAtqam, reveal the official jersey the players will be wearing on the pitch.
Made by Puma, the Al Hilal 2026-27 home jersey features the club's traditional blue base color. The design incorporates a subtle graphic design.
