Chelsea debuted their new third kit away at Bournemouth, but the debut didn't look too good when Nicolas Jackson's shirt was torn.

In a ball dispute, Marcos Senesi pulled Nicolas Jackson's shirt and tore a huge hole in the back of his shirt.
Nike'd 23-24 third kits come with a new Vaporknit pattern
It is very uncommon for a Nike football kit to rip. What is odd is that it happened with the brand-new third kit, which has a different knitting pattern than the other shirts of the 23-24 season. It remains to be seen if it's a one-off accident or if we will see more ripped Nike 2023-2024 third kits.
Indeed, the knit pattern of the Nike 23-24 Elite Team Third Kits is mainly vertical, which may increase the risk of tearing.
This is one of the rare times that Nike has had problems with its kits
Regarding torn jerseys, we can mention Castore, who already had a number of torn jerseys this season. For Castore, it is certain that there is a general problem with their kits in the 2023-2024 season.

Cerro Porteño 2026 Third Kit Released: 1990s Puma Remake
Puma has officially unveiled the new 2026 third kit for Paraguayan Primera División side Cerro Porteño. The release leans heavily into nostalgia, offering a direct modern recreation of one of the club's most beloved vintage shirts from the late 1990s.
The new Cerro Porteño 2026 third shirt is built on a white base, sharply contrasted by solid dark blue sleeves and vibrant red detailing on the classic polo collar and sleeve cuffs. The most prominent design element is the large, sublimated grey graphic covering the front and back of the torso, which faithfully replicates the stylized "CP" monogram watermark found on the original 1999 kit.
The 2026 third kit serves as a great tribute to the famous "Pinturas Renner" era.

Viktoria Köln 26-27 Third Kit Released
German 3. Liga side Viktoria Köln has officially unveiled its new third kit for the 2026-2027 season. Produced by Joma, the new release embraces a deeply nostalgic "Viktoria-Vintage" aesthetic to celebrate the club's roots. This launch also marks a significant off-pitch reunion, as the team will once again feature the logo of the ETL-Gruppe across the chest, welcoming back their long-time former main sponsor for the upcoming campaign.
The Joma Viktoria Köln 26-27 third shirt opts for a classic black and white color palette that leans heavily into retro football fashion. Both the Joma manufacturer logo and the Viktoria Köln club crest have been modified to perfectly match the monochrome aesthetic, blending seamlessly into the design. To complete the vintage look, the jersey is equipped with a traditional polo collar, purposely designed by the club to function equally well as a stylish lifestyle piece for fans to wear casually away from the pitch.
The new Viktoria Köln 2026-2027 third kit is currently available for pre-order via the club's official online store, with physical deliveries expected to begin in late June.
