Same As Last Season's Arsenal Kit + New Logo... Sydney FC 17-18 Home, Away & Third Kits Released
Jul 13, 2017, by Chris
Hyundai A-League Champions Sydney FC today unveiled the club's new Puma Home, Away and Alternate Kits for the 2017-18 season. The kit has received a total revamp following the club's third Championship last season with a new silhouette, branding and logo.
For the first time since 2011, the Sydney FC will start pre-season without a main sponsor as the club will not renew their longstanding deal with Webjet. The club is seeking a bigger deal as the A-League will be televised by a major free-to-air network for the first time in its history.
Sydney FC 17-18 Home Kit

The new Sydney FC 17-18 home jersey combines the club's signature Sky Blue with dark blue shoulders and a lighter blue sublimation stripe down the centre. Interestingly, it is based on the same design as last season's Arsenal home kit.
Sydney FC's official new club crest is woven and adorns the front of the shirt along with the Hyundai A-League's new logo, designed to suit Sydney FC's club colors. The silver star above the team's badge now features the number three, representing the club's 3rd Championship last season.
Sydney FC has retained its "Sydney is Sky Blue" motto, with its design of the Sydney Opera House on the back of the shirt, below the neckline.

The club's third strip, which is part of Puma's Step Out collection that includes jerseys for 23 teams, is navy blue and light blue. It has been released alongside Arsenal FC's 17-18 third kit as the club will face the Gunners in a friendly on Thursday night.
Sydney FC Captain Alex Brosque said: "I love the design and colour scheme of the new shirt, which aligns perfectly with our new logo. It looks fantastic, feels great to wear, and the cut is more comfortable than ever. With the number three in the star above our crest, we will step onto the field wearing the jersey with enormous pride to be part of such a great Australian football club."
The club will release a limited edition retail run of the kit including the Hyundai A-League Champions Badge closer to the beginning of the season.

Adidas Flamengo 26-27 EQT Collection Released
Adidas and Flamengo have officially launched the club's new Equipment (EQT) retro collection, making the Rubro-Negro the first Brazilian club to receive the iconic line. Inspired by the brand's seminal 1991 and 1992 aesthetics, the 1990s-themed capsule ditches the modern CRF monogram in favor of Flamengo's historic rowing crest with crossed oars and an anchor, placed alongside the classic Adidas Trefoil text logo. The lifestyle collection features five pieces including a color-blocked windbreaker jacket, crewneck sweatshirt, track pants, and graphic t-shirts in the club's signature red, black, and white color scheme.
Go Ahead Eagles 26-27 Third Kit Released
Dutch Eredivisie club Go Ahead Eagles and technical sponsor Stanno have officially unveiled their new third kit for the 2026-27 season. Named "Our Holy Waters," the design serves as a thematic companion to this season's "Our Holy Ground" home and away jerseys, shifting the focus to the club's deep connection with the IJssel river.
The Stanno Go Ahead Eagles 26-27 third shirt is built around an off-white base with fine vertical pinstripes running down the front. The centerpiece of the design is a detailed historic cog ship illustration across the torso, celebrating the Hanseatic maritime history of Deventer. Rich forest green decorates the folded collar and sleeve cuffs, complemented by gold trim and "GAE" lettering embroidered on the collar insert. Sponsor logos and branding appear in a metallic copper-bronze shade, alongside a recolored green and gold club crest.
Matching off-white shorts with green side piping and socks featuring the club's eagle crest complete the full kit. The Go Ahead Eagles 2026-27 third kit is available to purchase immediately through the club's official online store.
EFL Trophy Set to Become 'Jersey Mike's Trophy'
The EFL Trophy is set for another commercial rebrand, with American fast-food chain Jersey Mike's Subs closing in on a record-breaking title sponsorship agreement. The English Football League is finalizing a five-year contract worth approximately £5 million to officially rename the competition the Jersey Mike's Trophy.
The landmark partnership represents the most lucrative commercial deal in the history of the tournament. Participating clubs from League One and League Two, alongside invited Category One academy sides, will benefit from boosted prize money, starting with an initial pool of around £900,000 this season. The agreement directly supports Jersey Mike's major expansion into the UK and Ireland, where the US brand plans to roll out up to 400 store locations.
This move adds yet another chapter to the competition's long lineage of commercial title sponsors. Most recently titled the Vertu Motors Trophy, the tournament has previously operated under numerous memorable names, including the Papa Johns Trophy, Checkatrade Trophy, Johnstone's Paint Trophy, and the nostalgic LDV Vans Trophy.
No More Predator? Pedri Spotted in Next-Gen Adidas adiPURE Whiteout Prototype Boots
FC Barcelona and Spain midfield maestro Pedri has been spotted testing a whiteout prototype of the all-new Adidas adiPURE boots. Following Bayern Munich center-back Jonathan Tah, who stepped out in test pairs earlier this month, Pedri is now the most high-profile Adidas athlete seen taking the unreleased silhouette out onto the pitch.
The sighting comes as Adidas prepares to bring back the revered adiPURE silo for 2027, officially phasing out the Copa series to establish adiPURE as the brand's primary touch-and-leather boot alongside the Predator and F50. The next-generation adiPURE is engineered to combine classic heritage with modern speed, incorporating a plush Pureleather forefoot, a lightweight technical mesh quarter, a free-floating tongue, and a redesigned Adiframe soleplate.
While Pedri has been one of the central figures representing the Predator line, even rocking his personalized "Predri" signature branding, he has occasionally flirted with Copa models during training in previous seasons. Testing the whiteout prototype strongly indicates that Adidas might be positioning the Spanish technician as the premier ambassador to spearhead the revived adiPURE range ahead of its official debut in early 2027.
