No More Nike - Castore Sevilla 22-23 Home, Away & Third Kits Released

The French Football Federation (FFF) has officially announced the launch of the fully professional "Ligue 3" for the upcoming 2026-2027 season, permanently replacing the current third-tier Championnat National. This historic move marks the first time the FFF will directly organize a professional men's league.

As part of this major restructuring of the French football pyramid, the lower divisions will also be renamed for better clarity: the current National 2 will become National 1, and National 3 will shift to National 2. The newly formed 18-team Ligue 3 aims to bring greater financial stability, technological innovation such as a coaches' video challenge system, and increased exposure to the division, with all 309 matches set to be broadcast exclusively on the Ligue 1+ platform.

To mark this monumental transition, the FFF has also introduced a completely new visual identity for the competition. The rebranding is centered around a modern logo that combines the rectangular shape of a football pitch with the tiered structure of a stadium grandstand. This design visually embodies the league's new official slogan, "Terrain de rencontres" (Meeting Ground), aiming to highlight the intersection of professional ambition and popular, locally rooted football.

The Kappa San Martín de Tucumán 2026-2027 home and away kits were launched today, showing off the Argentine club's visual direction for the upcoming campaign.

The home jersey embraces a highly traditional aesthetic, featuring the team's iconic thick red and white vertical stripes, a solid red v-neck collar, and contrasting black text for the Kappa logo and "Caja Popular de Ahorros" main sponsor.

In stark contrast, the away kit introduces a sleek and modern look, utilizing a dark charcoal grey base with subtle tonal vertical bands. To maintain a strong connection to the club's heritage, the alternate shirt is sharply accented with vibrant red detailing on the collar and sleeve cuffs, alongside crisp white branding.

The J.League has officially unveiled the uniforms for the
upcoming 2026 All-Star DAZN Cup, produced in a unique collaboration with
Japanese retail giant Uniqlo and exclusively designed by Francesco Risso.

The bold aesthetic of the All-Star collection is deeply rooted in heritage,
utilizing a traditional Japanese ink-marbling technique known as "suminagashi"
to create a fluid, organic pattern across the fabric. The shirts carry a deeper
meaning as a "garment of gratitude," featuring a special bow-style motif on the
back that symbolizes the strong connection tying together the league's players,
staff, and passionate supporters. To ensure all fans are represented, the
collection drops in six distinct colorways mapped to the tournament's division
brackets. The top-flight J1 teams will wear red (East) and blue (West), while
the combined J2 and J3 divisions are split into four regional subgroups: light
blue (East-A), green (East-B), yellow (West-A), and purple (West-B).

Players will also use a special custom match ball produced by Sfida,
which boasts a nostalgic design heavily inspired by the iconic football anime
Captain Tsubasa.

Which of the six suminagashi colorways from this
Francesco Risso-designed collection is your favorite? Let us know in the
