All other features of the UEFA Equipment Regulations appear more or less identical to the previous edition. One thing UEFA added is some examples of kit clashes, especially clashes for colorblind people.

The similarity between the old and the new regulations is also confirmed by the size of the document. The old 2018 UEFA Equipment Regulations consisted of 68 pages and 59 Articles, while the new 2021 UEFA Equipment Regulations have 67 pages and 60 Articles.

The 2021 regulations were adopted by the UEFA Executive Committee at its meeting on 19 April 2021. We expect them to be in force in the 2021–2024 cycle, until summer 2024.
