The Manchester City 20-21 third jersey combines the colors 'Whisper White' & 'Peacoat' with an eye-catching all-over Paisley print. Whisper-White is a very light beige color tone that will most likely appear white from afar, while Peacoat is Puma's standard navy color tone.
A bold and eye-catching paisley pattern appears all over the front and sleeves of the Man City 2020-2021 third shirt, inspired by the city of Manchester's rich musical heritage and fashion culture.
The elements included in the paisley pattern are informed by the Man City club crest.
The shorts of the Man City 20-21 third kit are either dark blue or white, while the socks are white.
“For the City Third Kit we looked at cultural influences from Manchester that have impacted the world. Manchester is a city recognized globally for its football and its music scene, so for this special jersey we have designed a one-off, exclusive paisley pattern on the jersey. For the design we have utilized the rose and the three rivers from the club’s crest to create this unique jersey at the junction of football, music and fashion,” said David Bremond, Head of Product Line Management Teamsport Licensed at PUMA.
The new Man City 20-21 third jersey was released on 27 August 2020.

Special Rayados 'Legado 86' Commemorative Kit Released

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Monterrey's first-ever Liga MX league championship won in the Mexico 1986 tournament, the commemorative shirt made its on-pitch debut during their 26-27 Liga MX match against Cruz Azul.

Puma positioned their red cat logo and the retro crest to replicate the arrangement seen on the original 1986 jersey, while modern club partners such as BBVA and Codere are incorporated across the traditional navy and white stripes.
Several bespoke detailing elements complete the design, including a star graphic with the number 86 printed inside the collar and the current Rayados crest positioned on the nape of the neck.

Puma Kit Durability Questioned Again as Julian Ryerson Suffers Ripped Shorts
Borussia Dortmund full-back Julian Ryerson suffered an unusual kit malfunction during BVB's 1-0 Bundesliga victory against VfB Stuttgart. Midway through the second half, the Norwegian international engaged in a physical duel with Stuttgart winger Jamie Leweling. As Leweling fell to the turf, he grabbed hold of Ryerson's shorts, completely tearing the outer seam apart and leaving the fabric hanging loose.
Ryerson initially attempted to carry on playing by knotting the shredded material at his hip. After repeatedly signaling toward the bench that the damaged kit could not hold up, he eventually made his way to the sideline. Second-choice goalkeeper Alexander Meyer rushed over to hand him a fresh pair, resulting in a brief moment where Ryerson was left in his base-layer yellow undershorts before donning the replacement gear and re-entering the pitch.
The incident has brought Puma's kit durability back under scrutiny. The German brand constructs its authentic elite kits using lightweight Ultraweave performance fabric, prioritizing minimal weight and high breathability. However, the delicate material has repeatedly faced criticism among supporters after tearing in high-intensity tussles, with Ryerson's mishap marking another visible tear on the Bundesliga stage this 26-27 season.
