FC Porto Pre-Match and Champions League Font Leaked
- FC Porto Pre-Match Jersey: A new FC Porto pre-match jersey, made by New Balance, has been leaked and will be worn in the 2023-24 Primeira Liga; the team may have two or three pre-match jerseys.
- Pre-Match Jersey Uniqueness: Unlike rivals Benfica who have one pre-match jersey for all kits, Porto will have either two or three pre-match jerseys, one for each kit.
- Champions League Font: FC Porto's Champions League and Cup font has been leaked, featuring a quirky design with an old club logo on the numbers.
The new FC Porto Pre-Match jersey was leaked today. It is made by New Balance and will be worn in the 2023-24 Primeira Liga.
Thanks to @Fresko_351 for the images.
What's interesting is that the Portuguese team will have two or three Pre Match jerseys, one for each kit: Home, Away, and possibly Third.
Compared to this season, the same thing happened. Porto had a Home Pre-Match jersey and an Away Pre-Match jersey.
We can compare to its main rivals, Benfica, who have just one Pre-Match jersey for all three available kits, made by Adidas.
Porto's Champions League and Cup font has also been leaked.
The font is a quirky but fun design, something a bit informal but a great creative take on what a kit font should be: legible and with character.
It also has one of the club's old logos on the numbers.
Made by New Balance. What do you make of the FC Porto's kit? Comment below.
Unique Svolme Delsalma-4 LE Boots Spotted at 2026 World Cup
During the 2026 World Cup, an extremely rare pair of football boots was spotted on the feet of Japanese player Junnosuke Suzuki in Monterrey, Mexico. The boots in question are the Svolme Delsalma-4 LE, a limited-edition release from the Japanese sports brand Svolme. Suzuki's pair is one of only 1,248 produced globally, making it a highly exclusive model on the international stage. Thanks to @abcdefutbol.
The Svolme Delsalma-4 LE is designed as a touch-focused boot, featuring a premium kangaroo leather upper that provides a soft and natural feel on the ball. The brand, which is well-known in Japan but rarely seen in major global competitions, released this limited run to coincide with the tournament in North America. Suzuki’s choice to wear the Delsalma-4 LE highlights a unique piece of Japanese football equipment during the biggest international competition.

Special Commemorative Patches for 1000th FIFA World Cup Match
To mark a significant milestone in football history, special commemorative patches were featured during the 2026 FIFA World Cup Group F match between Tunisia and Japan in Monterrey. The fixture officially marked the 1000th match in the history of the tournament.
In recognition of the occasion, both the Japan and Tunisia national teams wore mini Match 1000 arm patches on their jerseys. The special detailing was spotted on the players' kits during the game, as well as on the shirts laid out in the dressing rooms beforehand.
The commemorative design was not limited to the competing teams, as the match officials also wore the Match 1000 patch on their referee kits. This subtle yet historic addition provided a unique touch to the kits for the milestone game.
