Watford Makes Changes To New Club Logo Selection Process
In June 2019, English Premier League club Watford FC announced that it invites fans to help redesigning the club's crest.
Now the club Watford has changed the way the club will select a new crest, after submissions were closed last week.
Watford FC Received Over 4,000 Entries For New Logo
Originally, it was intended that supporters that, after all designs have been collected, supporters were going to vote on six different options, including the five best fan designs and the current crest, after a panel of 20 fans had chosen their favorites. However, after receiving more than 4,000 entries, the club has decided on a new method of selection.
The panel of supporters will now narrow the 4,000 down into a top 50, which a larger panel of around 900 fans will then trim down to a top 20.
From there, every Watford supporter registered on the club's database will be asked to select the winning design.
The winning design will be put to a vote against the current design, with the winner becoming next season's crest.
Wow! 😲

Our panel of 20 fans (selected by ballot very soon) will whittle them down to a small group of finalists 🥇 pic.twitter.com/nHLiXSavfO

All-New Adidas Crazylight Pro Concept Boots Revealed
Adidas has offered an intriguing look at the future of speed footwear at its Home of Innovation showcase held at the brand's headquarters in Herzogenaurach. Among several radical prototypes displayed across various sports categories, the standout for football was the striking Adidas Crazylight Pro concept, inspected during the event by Real Madrid forward Rodrygo. Big thanks to sr4u_josh.
The Crazylight moniker has long represented the pinnacle of lightweight engineering for Adidas, tracing back to the featherweight 99g and 135g F50 Adizero models of the mid-2010s through to modern experimental speed releases. This new Crazylight Pro concept pushes that design ethos even further, featuring an ultra-thin, semi-translucent upper finished in a crisp white, solar red, and black palette. Dynamic, curving support lines run along the forefoot and midfoot, creating an external skeleton designed to hold the foot securely without adding unnecessary bulk.
The most futuristic element sits on the underside, where Adidas revealed a chrome outsole constructed around an intricate skeletal frame. Spreading outward from the center in an organic, web-like pattern, the metallic structure anchors the studs while carved-out sections expose a translucent red base plate to shave off every possible gram. While Adidas has not announced a retail release for this exact model, concepts from the Crazylight Pro could provide an early preview of technology destined for upcoming generations of the F50 speed line in future seasons.
AS Nancy-Lorraine 26-27 Third & Fourth Kits Released
French club AS Nancy-Lorraine and Decathlon have officially launched the club's new third and fourth shirts for the 26-27 season. Following the release of their classic red-and-white home shirt and geometric away strip earlier this summer, the new drop delivers two distinctive looks deeply tied to regional history and meaningful causes.
The AS Nancy 26-27 third kit is predominantly dark navy with elegant soft pink accents, finished with a classic polo collar for a vintage-chic aesthetic. Across the front, an intricate tonal graphic takes inspiration from the Gothic vaults of Nancy's famous Palais Ducal, layered over the club's historical vertical stripes. In place of the standard modern crest, Decathlon has applied an oversized 1970s thistle emblem on the chest, while a centenary tribute to the Stade Marcel Picot sits on the back of the neck.
Alongside the navy shirt, the club also presented the AS Nancy 26-27 fourth kit. Dedicated to the upcoming Octobre Rose campaign in support of breast cancer awareness, it reverses the color palette with an all-pink look complemented by navy details and the retro thistle badge. While the third kit is already available for purchase, the fourth kit will be released as a strictly limited edition.

Italian sportswear brand Macron has spotlighted an eye-catching Rimini Calcio 1912 shirt as part of its ongoing 26-27 "Unveilievable" campaign. Celebrating the club's identity under the label's "Fashion in Sport" banner, the design offers a sharp, vintage-inspired hooped aesthetic that complements the team's traditional red and white quartered look.
