The 2023-24 kit launch season is in its final phase, which means that clubs are releasing their new away and third kits. With it, there come experiments. Some were unfavorable - we've rounded up some of the worst kits of August 2023 for you to vote on.
Worst Football Kit of April 2023
Standing out the pack is the Adidas Fulham 23-24 Away kit, featuring a striking pink that is sure to make a statement. The Adidas Leeds 23-24 Third kit is also a contender, with its strange mix of pink and yellow.
Third kits allow for experiments, but some did not work out
Meanwhile, the grey Hummel Everton 23-24 Third kit comes with an oversimplified tower instead of the club crest - you would expect that as a collar detailing but not as the key element of a kit.
The big clubs are also featured - Milan's fresh color scheme is something you wouldn't not expect for a traditional Italian club, and Tottenham's Taupe Haze kit is surely not optimal for playing football and seeing your teammate.
Which kit do you think is the worst of the bunch? Cast your vote now and let us know in the comments below.
FC Vaduz 26-27 Home, Away & Third Kits Released
The new FC Vaduz 2026-27 home, away, and third kits have been officially unveiled. Made by Puma, the shirts will be worn during the club's upcoming Swiss Super League campaign following their recent promotion to the top flight.
The Puma FC Vaduz 2026-27 home kit updates the club's traditional split front panel design by replacing the former burgundy half with a clean white section.
Completing the collection, the Puma FC Vaduz 2026-27 away and third kits were launched shortly after the home shirt to offer alternative looks for the team's travels.
Adidas Besiktas Vs Nike Besiktas 26-27 Kits
Besiktas today released their 2026-2027 Nike kits. Due to the late agreement of the deal, the club received not fully bespoke looks - Adidas had already prepared bespoke designs for Besiktas.
Cádiz 26-27 Home Kit Leaked
The new Cádiz CF 2026-27 home kit has been leaked by local journalist Carlos Sacaluga, providing a first look at the club's inaugural design by their new supplier, Kappa.
The shirt features a remarkably simple, polo-style aesthetic in the club's traditional yellow and blue colors.
Following its appearance online, the minimalist design has drawn a largely negative reaction from supporters, with many criticizing the kit for looking more like a basic polo shirt than a bespoke football jersey.
Puma Model for Marseille 2026-27 Away Kit Has "Paris" Tattoo
Puma's promotional campaign for the new Olympique Marseille 2026-27 away kit has sparked controversy and amusement online after eagle-eyed fans spotted a "Paris" tattoo on the arm of one of the models.
The images, which quickly circulated on social media, show the model wearing the new Marseille away shirt with the word "Paris" clearly visible on his forearm, a major faux pas given the fierce rivalry between OM and Paris Saint-Germain. While some fans initially suspected the images were edited, reports suggest the tattoo was visible in official promotional materials and on the club's site before potentially being retouched on Puma's official store.
