With Adidas just having released the new Germany 2018 World Cup jersey, we take a look back at all Germany World Cup home kits. Germany participated in 17 World Cups so far, and were qualified for every World Cup since 1954. The country won the World Cup fourth times yet (1954, 1974, 1990, 2014).

Germany World Cup Home Kit History - 1934 - 2018
Here are Germany's World Cup-winning jerseys (1954, 1974, 1990, 2014).
Germany's kits have been made by two different kit suppliers so far, Erima and Adidas. Interestingly, Germany's 1974 World Cup jerseys were the first made by Erima, even though the logo of the company was not allowed by the German FA to be visible on the kit. Adidas produced all other gear for the German national team back then, such as the training gear.

Newcastle United Deny Adidas Stadium Sponsorship Rumors
Speculation surfaced online suggesting that Newcastle United were in discussions with kit supplier Adidas regarding a potential stadium sponsorship deal for St James' Park. The German sportswear brand already has a major presence across the stadium following the launch of their lucrative kit partnership, featuring branding across the stands and stadium facilities.
However, reports linking Adidas to an official stadium sponsorship deal have been swiftly shot down. According to Telegraph journalist Luke Edwards, Newcastle United are not in talks with the three stripes brand over stadium naming or presenting rights, with club sources strongly denying any Adidas involvement in such negotiations.
While Adidas is ruled out, Newcastle are actively in preliminary talks with other international commercial partners for a stadium sponsorship agreement. The club's commercial leadership aims to drive substantial revenue growth in the coming years while maintaining the historic St James' Park name alongside any prospective sponsor.
No More Warrix: Hummel Uthai Thani 26-27 Home, Away & Third Kits Released
Danish sportswear brand Hummel has officially revealed the new 2026-27 kit collection for Thai League side Uthai Thani FC. The launch marks a new kit partnership for the Thai club, with Hummel continuing to expand its presence across Thai football for the 26-27 campaign.
The Uthai Thani 26-27 home kit features a bold red base combined with contrasting black raglan shoulder panels and white sleeve sections, accented by the classic Hummel chevrons. The away jersey takes on a rich blue look covered in an intricate all-over graphic pattern and paired with white-and-blue striped trim on the collar and cuffs. Rounding out the outfield options, the third shirt showcases a soft light blue to pale yellow vertical gradient on the body, framed by black and yellow shoulder detailing.
Hummel also presented three distinct goalkeeper strips for the season in lime green, dark charcoal with orange accents, and a sandy tan colorway with light blue trim. All shirts in the collection proudly feature Uthai Thani FC's elephant crest on the chest alongside Chang and GRC sponsorship branding.
Ajax Player' Goalkeeper Kit Was Manually Created by the Club
A curious detail has emerged regarding AFC Ajax's kit specifications for the 26-27 season. While Ajax outfield players take the pitch wearing standard replica-spec shirts with embroidered crests and fan-grade fabric, goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen has been spotted wearing a genuine player-issue authentic Adidas shirt.
The difference comes down to how Adidas structures its team tiers and produces goalkeeper templates. Since Ajax is not currently classified as an Adidas Elite partner, the three stripes brand does not manufacture dedicated authentic player-spec versions for their outfield kits. However, Adidas makes authentic base goalkeeper shirts available to its clubs, complete with lightweight Climacool+ performance fabric, printed Adidas branding, and the official authentic hem jocktag.
To prepare the shirt for matchday, Ajax manually customized the blank authentic goalkeeper template in-house by heat-applying the club's three-starred crest and sponsor graphics. This process allows ter Stegen to wear a true high-performance shirt on the pitch, even as the rest of the squad continues to play in standard replica shirts.

Manchester United Wear Premier League Sleeve Patches on Both Arms for The First Time In 9 Years
The recent Gameweek 2 against Ipswich Town marked the first time since the 17-18 season - when the Premier League first permitted left-sleeve sponsors - Man United wore Premier League sleeve patches on both arms.
With their deal with DXC Technology expiring in June 2026 and no replacement yet, the Red Devils left their left sleeve blank, requiring them to display the patches on both sides as per Premier League regulations.
The 17-18 season was also the last time United played without a sleeve sponsor. From 18-19 through 25-26, the Old Trafford side always had a dedicated sleeve partner, featuring Kohler (2018–2022) and DXC Technology (2022–2026).
