Ligue 1 Launch Top Scoreur Badge for League's Leading Goal Scorer
Nov 24, 2023, by Chris
- New Badge Introduction: Ligue 1 has launched a "Top Scoreur" badge to be worn by the league's leading goal scorer.
- Badge Design and Meaning: The "S1" badge, designed by Tyrsa, combines the letter "S" for "Scoreur" with the number "1" to represent the goalscorer race.
- First Recipient: Kylian Mbappé, with 13 goals, is the first player to receive the "Top Scoreur" badge.
Ligue 1 Uber Eats, the top-tier professional football league in France, have introduced a new and innovative system to celebrate the league's top scorers.
Ligue 1 Top Scoreur Badge
The new Ligue 1 badge for the top goalscorer is called the S1 badge. It will be affixed to the Top Scoreur's shirt on each new matchday.
The Ligue 1 Top Scoreur badge is a combination of the letter 'S' for 'Scoreur' and the number '1' joined together on a circuit that illustrates the race among the goalscorers. The badge is designed by Tyrsa, an artist who has already made a name for himself on a number of occasions in collaboration with prestigious brands such as Dior, Louis Vuitton, and Moncler.
The first badge will be presented to Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappé, who is currently the top scorer in the league with 13 goals so far this season.
Ligue 1 are not the first with the idea of special badges for individual players. In the 2019-2020 season, Serie A introduced badges for the best goalkeeper, best defender, best midfielder, best striker, best youngster and the best player of the previous season (which was Cristiano Ronaldo). CR7 refused to wear the shirts with the awards to "show respect" to his teammates.

Adidas x Poland
We finally got the first detailed information about the return of the Three Stripes to Poland. More very soon.
Giant Adidas Three Stripes on Long-Sleeve Kits Overwhelm Aesthetic
Adidas introduced enlarged Three Stripes across its performance templates ahead of the 2026 World Cup, rolling the look out across club teams for the 26-27 season. Designed to maximize on-pitch brand visibility, the wider striping measures around 18mm across. However, its competitive rollout has drawn criticism from kit enthusiasts and fans who feel the oversized proportions overwhelm the aesthetic balance of modern kits.
The visual disruption is especially noticeable on long-sleeved shirts. When worn on the pitch by players like Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, the thick white stripes command the shoulders and arms, dwarfing surrounding elements like the collar and sleeve patches. While short-sleeved shirts offer breaks in coverage, the continuous run of oversized stripes down full-length sleeves makes the branding feel excessively dominant.
Despite the pushback, Adidas will retain this oversized stripe template through at least the 27-28 campaign.
SK Brann 2026 Third Kit Released
Norwegian club SK Brann and Nike have officially unveiled their new third kit for the 2026 season, paying tribute to the club's historic 1976 Norwegian Cup-winning side on its 50th anniversary.
The jersey is predominantly white, highlighted by red vertical striping running down the right chest behind the red Nike Swoosh, red sponsor branding, and a monochrome red club crest. Debuted on pitch during their Eliteserien away clash against Sandefjord, the new release completes Brann's 2026 kit collection alongside their previously launched home and away shirts.
Rochdale AFC 26-27 Third Kit Released
Rochdale AFC and Irish kit manufacturer O'Neills have officially unveiled the club's new third kit for the 26-27 season. The shirt features a vibrant yellow base adorned with an all-over wave graphic inspired by the local River Roch. It is framed by bold black accents on the v-neck collar, sleeve cuffs, and side panels, while a centrally stacked monochrome Rochdale crest, O'Neills logo, and Crown Oil sponsor complete the look.
CD Nacional 26-27 Away Kit Released
Portuguese Primeira Liga club CD Nacional has officially unveiled its new away kit for the 26-27 season, designed by Italian brand Kappa. The Madeira-based side completes their lineup for the campaign with an eye-catching, refined colorway.
The Kappa CD Nacional 2026-27 away shirt is predominantly golden, accented with subtle white vertical pinstripes running down the front and back. The jersey features a classic polo collar trimmed in white, detailed with the club's founding year, 1910, placed in the neckline insert. Both the Kappa Omini logo and the CD Nacional crest are centered on the chest in white and gold, above the white Coral Cerveja sponsor print.
PSM Makassar 26-27 Home Kit Released
