Cameroon Kit Confusion: Court Rules That Le Coq Sportif Contract is Still Valid
One All Sports have just launched their World Cup 2022 kits for Cameroon, but a Paris court has ruled that their contract with Le Coq Sportif is still valid and must be honoured. So which kits will Cameroon actually wear at the World Cup?
Court Rules in Favour of Le Coq Sportif in Cameroon (FECAFOOT) Case
FECAFOOT president Samuel Eto'o caused a shock earlier this year when he abruptly cancelled Cameroon's kit contract with Le Coq Sportif without consulting the brand first, claiming they weren't respecting contractual obligations. The contract was due to run until December 31 2023. FECAFOOT then signed a deal with One All Sports to produce their World Cup Kits, which were released this morning.
After they'd failed to sort things out with FECAFOOT in the meantime, Le Coq Sportif took legal action. On Thursday the 3rd of November, the following ruling was made in favour of Le Coq Sportif by the Paris court:
"The court has ordered the maintenance of the contractual relationship between Le Coq Sportif International and the Cameroonian Football Federation as per the contract concluded on January 10, 2020, with the contract length to extend until December 31, 2023.”
Abiding by this ruling would of course mean wearing Le Coq Sportif shirts at the World Cup, but Cameroon went ahead with the launch of their new One All Sports shirts today as planned. FIFA had already recognised One All Sports as Cameroon's kit suppliers before the verdict, and FECAFOOT have appealed the court's decision.
Cameroon seem dead set on wearing the kits from their new supplier at the World Cup, but that could get them into more legal trouble, which would likely be costly. The tournament is now less than three weeks away, yet it is less clear than ever how Cameroon will be kitted out for it. 20 years after he was the poster boy for Cameroon's most famous kit controversy, Samuel Eto'o has created another one.
The Indomitable Lions take on Jamaica in a friendly on Wednesday the 9th of November, so it will be very interesting to see whose strips they wear in that game. What do you think of this situation? Comment below?
No More Adidas: Macron Aberdeen 26-27 Third Kit Released
Aberdeen FC and Macron have officially unveiled the club's new third kit for the 2026-27 season. Completing the Dons' wardrobe for the campaign alongside the red home and white away strips, the design takes direct inspiration from Aberdeenshire's iconic Craigievar Castle as the world-famous pink fortress marks its 400th anniversary.
The Aberdeen 26-27 third jersey features a light pink base that recalls the castle's distinctive pink-harled walls. It is enriched by an all-over geometric pattern woven directly into the fabric using Macron's Eco 3D Knit jacquard structure. Anthracite grey covers the raglan sleeves, side panels, cuffs, and ribbed V-neck collar, highlighted with refined silver piping, while the club crest and Macron Hero are both presented in monochrome anthracite on the chest.
Bespoke details include a stylized graphic of Craigievar Castle printed inside the back of the neck, as well as the city's historic "Bon Accord" motto running along the inner silicone hem tape. Pink shorts with anthracite inserts and pink socks finish off the full uniform, which is manufactured entirely from 100% recycled polyester.
All-New Inter Milan 26-27 Champions League Kit Font Released
Inter Milan will have a dedicated name and number font for their new 2026-27 third kit in the UEFA Champions League, something rarely seen from the Nerazzurri in recent years as they have typically used the standard Serie A typography in Europe.
For Serie A, Inter use the standard league typography in Speed Yellow. In the Champions League, however, the Nerazzurri switch to a bespoke 1990s-inspired font with taller, sharper-edged lettering and numbers featuring a thin blue outline, matching the kit's grey.
Interestingly, Inter's 2026-27 home shirt uses the standard Serie A font and was worn in their first Champions League match against Real Madrid. The third kit, meanwhile, features a dedicated Champions League typeface.
Fans can choose between the Serie A and Champions League fonts when customizing the Inter Milan 2026-27 third kit on the club's official web store. This dual-font approach gives the European version a distinct retro feel.
Big thanks to What The Kit for the mockup!
Retro 1980s Aesthetic: Newcastle United 26-27 Originals Retro Collection Released
Adidas and Newcastle United have officially released their latest retro lifestyle capsule, dubbed the adidas Originals Culturewear collection. Taking heavy inspiration from the club's classic 1980s training wear, the collection was first showcased on first-team players arriving ahead of Premier League action before rolling out for Mags+ members and hitting general sale.
The range adopts a clean color palette of dark navy, white, and subtle light blue accents. A defining highlight across every piece is the use of Newcastle United's iconic circular 1980s crest—originally seen between 1983 and 1988—paired alongside the classic embroidered adidas Trefoil emblem. The capsule features a standout long-sleeve white jersey boasting a tonal jacquard pattern, a color-blocked zip-up track top, a matching navy hoodie, a chest-band graphic t-shirt, and straight-leg track pants. The lineup is completed by a matching pair of adidas Handball Spezial sneakers crafted in light blue suede with a gum sole.
Arnaut Danjuma Still Wearing Adidas F50 Adizero IV 'Battle' Remake Boots
Dutch attacker Arnaut Danjuma is proving that great boots never go out of style, as he continues to lace up in the reissued Adidas F50 Adizero IV from the 2014 World Cup Battle Pack. While most professional players frequently rotate into the newest generation speed models, Danjuma has maintained an impressive loyalty to the limited-edition retro release years after its drop.
The boot in question is the 2022 Speed Legacy Pack remake of the legendary F50 Adizero IV, which originally dominated the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil on the feet of top scorers like James Rodríguez, Robin van Persie, and Thomas Müller. The reissue faithfully revived the distinctive black-and-white geometric upper pattern with metallic gold three stripes, while modernizing the underfoot tech with the lightweight Carbitex Speedframe tooling borrowed from the X Speedflow.
