Puma Soon: Full Nike Neymar Boots History - 2005-2020 - Adidas In 2004
Neymar is set to leave Nike for Puma, with the official announcement expected for next week. It means that one of the most biggest and longest brand x player partnership comes to an abrupt, unexpected end - we take a look at the full history of the Nike x Neymar boots partnership.
Nike x Neymar - Full Football Boot History - 2005-2020
Neymar had been already sponsored by Nike since the age of 13, when he signed the first deal with the Swoosh. Neymar was growing up in Mogi das Cruzes, a run-down suburb of Sao Paulo. There are few pictures of Neymar from the time before 2005 - one of them shows him wearing Adidas F50 Tunit football boots, likely taken in 2004, another shows him wearing futsal boots from a Brazilian brand.

Neymar had been mostly wearing the Nike Mercurial football boots during his whole life (since being sponsored by Nike), with two exceptions - he laced up in the Nike Air Zoom Total 90 Laser boots in 2008, and between summer 2013 and winter 2016, he was wearing the Nike Hypervenom.
In fact, the time after Nike decided that Neymar should become the face of an all-new boot silo (summer 2013) had been the most problematic in the Nike x Neymar partnership. Neymar did not like the Nike Hypervenom very much, especially the second generation. Therefore, Nike was forced to create a few different camouflaged Hypervenom boots (Mercurial tech + Hypervenom design) before both parties ultimately decided that Neymar should revert to the Mercurial.
Neymar Signature Nike Boots:
Neymar received his first Nike signature boots for the 2014 World Cup - a ultra-bold gold / Volt Nike Hypervenom colorway. Since then, Nike launched signature editions for Neymar on a regular basis, with the latest being the Nike Mercurial Neymar Jogo Prismático.

Queen of the South 26-27 Third Kit Released - Designed by Local School Pupil
Scottish League One club Queen of the South has officially launched its new 26-27 third kit, manufactured by Macron. What makes the release particularly unique is that it was designed by Rex, a pupil from Dalbeattie Primary School, who won a club competition that saw an impressive 1,883 entries submitted from 27 local primary schools.
The Macron Queen of the South 2026-27 third jersey introduces an eye-catching look based on bold diagonal stripes alternating between pink, black, and purple. The sleeves are dominated by bright pink with black cuffs, matched by a clean black V-neck collar. White detailing finishes the shirt, including the Macron Hero emblem, local sponsor Gavin Edgar Joinery on the chest, and a recolored monochrome club crest.
Completing the Queen of the South 26-27 third strip are black shorts and socks. The full kit is available now through the club's official online store and physical club shop.
Kifisia FC 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Greek Super League club Kifisia FC and German kit maker Erima have officially revealed the team's new home and away kits for the 26-27 campaign. Both designs introduce the branding of new front-of-shirt sponsor Tutu Deals.
The Erima Kifisia 26-27 home jersey features a timeless navy blue base covered with subtle white vertical pinstripes extending across the front and sleeves. A sharp white V-neck collar matches the clean white Erima chest branding, while the club's signature plane tree leaf crest sits proudly on the left breast.
The 26-27 away kit opts for a clean white base adorned with an intricate, tonal root-inspired graphic pattern across the body. Navy and gold trim decorates both the polo collar and the sleeve cuffs, with elegant gold detailing applied to the club crest and manufacturer logo to round off the look.
AC Bellinzona 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Italian brand Acerbis and Swiss side AC Bellinzona have officially unveiled the club's new home and away kits for the 26-27 season. The Ticino outfit, competing in the Swiss Promotion League, receive a coordinated pair of shirts defined by a bold cross design across the front.
The AC Bellinzona 26-27 home shirt arrives in the club's signature deep granata, highlighted by a prominent white cross spanning across the entire front of the jersey. Reversing the colorway, the 26-27 away jersey uses a clean white base complemented by the same large cross graphic in dark red.
Both jerseys feature a symmetrical, centered layout. The Acerbis wordmark and Bellinzona's diamond-shaped badge sit vertically above each other on the upper chest, while the sponsor emblem is aligned right in the center of the cross.
Ederson Continues Cutting Sleeves at Fenerbahçe
Heading into his second season in the Süper Lig, the 33-year-old goalkeeper was once again spotted taking the pitch in a cut-sleeve jersey. Simply because Fenerbahçe does not offer a short-sleeve kit option from Adidas.
At his previous clubs like Rio Ave, Benfica, and Manchester City, Ederson always had short-sleeve versions to him. His time at Fenerbahçe marks one of the rare instances in his professional career where Ederson has worn long sleeves on the pitch.
Special thanks to What The Kit for the spot and the collage.
Bordeaux 26-27 Away Kit Released
Following the launch of their home strip, Girondins de Bordeaux and Hummel have officially unveiled the club's new away kit for the 26-27 season. Amidst severe off-pitch turmoil and administrative relegation to the amateur leagues, the French club has looked to the most celebrated period in its history for design inspiration, presenting a shirt that pays tribute to the famous 1986-87 double-winning side.
The Hummel Bordeaux 26-27 away jersey is predominantly white, framed by dark navy panels across the shoulders and sleeves that house the Danish brand's signature chevrons. A classic white polo collar features discreet red trim along the edges, which is echoed on the sleeve cuffs. Completing the retro aesthetic, the left chest bears the club's circular 1980s crest rather than the modern badge, delivering an unmistakable nod to the golden era.
Presented without a main shirt sponsor, the clean retro shirt maintains a bespoke feel despite the team competing outside the professional ranks in Régional 1. Hummel continues to stand by the club under its multi-year partnership, with the kit priced at €89.95.
