Third Kit Inspired Nike Challenge III Teamwear Kit Released - 2020-21 Template
Jan 11, 2020, by Pat
Inspired by the 19-20 third kits, Nike has unveiled its new 'Challenge III' teamwear template.
The last update to the Nike Challenge template was made in 2018, when it drew inspiration from the third kits of 17-18 season with their camo look.
Nike Dry Challenge III Jersey
This is the new Nike Challenge 3 teamwear soccer jersey in black and white.
The Nike Challenge III teamwear shirt is inspired by the 2019-20 third kits. It has a 1990s-inspired collar very similar to the one on the Chelsea third kit. Similar to the PSG third, there's a jacquard diagonal striping pattern, going from the top right to the bottom left of the Nike Challenge III 20-21 teamwear template. Unfortunately, the regular Swoosh was used and not the 90s variant that we can see on the third kits.
It comes in an initial five colorways: black / white, white / black, pine green / white, royal blue / white and university red / white.
There is no dedicated shorts style to go with the Nike Challenge III teamwear shirt. Any of the existing styles can be selected.
The Nike Challenge III teamwear kit retails at €35.

What If Adidas Made Barcelona Kits?
Kit collector and insider @memorabilia1899 has shared an intriguing concept imagining how FC Barcelona would look if Adidas were the club's technical sponsor. Despite Barcelona having a long-term partnership with Nike extended through 2038, the fantasy of the German sportswear giant designing the Blaugrana's kits continues to spark conversation among football shirt enthusiasts.
The Adidas Barcelona concept leans heavily into retro aesthetics, combining classic vertical red and blue stripes with the iconic Trefoil logo on the chest. A dark blue polo collar, styled with 'BARÇA 1899' detailing, is paired with gold-orange accents seen across the Three Stripes on the shoulders and the centered Spotify sponsor logo. The full look is completed by navy blue shorts and matching socks.
Would you like to see Adidas manufacture Barcelona kits in the future, or does Nike remain the perfect fit for the Catalan giants?

German club VfL Osnabrück have unveiled a special kit for their DFB-Pokal first-round clash against FC Bayern Munich.

The Osnabrück 26-27 DFB-Pokal special shirt closely mirrors the clean aesthetic worn during that historic 1978 triumph. Predominantly white, it features a bold retro polo collar and matching sleeve cuffs in Osnabrück's signature purple.
Completing the look, the special edition kit is paired with matching white shorts and socks accented by purple detailing. The kit will be worn exclusively during the home cup tie against Bayern Munich at the Bremer Brücke and is available through the club's official retail channels.
