Brighton Wear Special-Edition Rainbow Laces Pre-Match Shirt - Designed by 14-Year Old

  • Competition: Brighton and Hove Albion held a competition for children to design a special Rainbow Laces shirt.
  • Winning Design: A 14-year-old girl, Livs Cook, won with her design featuring the club's colors, a rainbow splash, and the text 'Make Sport Everyone's Game'.
  • Pre-Match Shirt: The winning design was produced by Nike as a jersey for players to wear during their pre-match warmup for the Rainbow Laces fixture.

On December 6, Brighton and Hove Albion played against Brentford in their designated Rainbow Laces fixture. To celebrate, the Foundation ran a competition asking local children to design a shirt for the occasion.

Hundreds of children entered the competition, with one girl’s design winning. Livs Cook, 14, from Bognor Regis, designed a shirt that was produced by Nike as a jersey for the players to wear during their pre-match warmup.

Brighton 23-24 Rainbow Laces Shirt

Check out some pictures from the pre-match warmup below.

The Brighton Rainbow Laces jersey is white with the club's trademark blue stripes on the front as well as a color splash rainbow design at the top and another rainbow further down. The text 'Make Sport Everyone's Game' is written across the lower half of the shirt.

“I really wanted to see if I could incorporate the traditional Brighton blue and white striped shirt into my design,” Livs said. “I thought that the drips of rainbow colours would represent the merging of the rainbow laces with the Albion. I also added the writing as I wanted to emphasise the point that everyone is equal in sport.”

Melbourne City 26-27 Home, Away & Third Kits Released

Puma and A-League club Melbourne City FC have officially unveiled their complete kit collection for the 26-27 campaign. Launched under the campaign tagline 'Made of City', the three-kit drop blends the club's signature identity with Melbourne street culture and club heritage.

The Melbourne City 26-27 home shirt stays true to tradition, centered around the iconic City Blue base. Drawing inspiration directly from the club badge, red and yellow trim accents decorate the collar and sleeve cuffs. Meanwhile, the away kit leans into nocturnal Melbourne fashion, pairing a deep plum jersey with an abstract zig-zag graphic and vibrant shimmer pink branding across all sponsor prints and the club crest.

Rounding out the lineup is the 26-27 third kit, which pays homage to the club's origins as Melbourne Heart. The shirt combines a crisp off-white base with red accents and incorporates a subtle heartbeat graphic emerging across the chest from behind the crest. A heart motif inside the collar completes the tribute. The new collection is available through Melbourne City's online store and Puma Australia.

Adidas Colo-Colo EQT Collection Leaked

Adidas is expanding its 1990s-inspired EQT lifestyle range to South America, with official images of the upcoming Colo-Colo EQT collection leaking online. Following recent retro drops for European giants such as Bayern Munich and Juventus, the Chilean club is set to receive its own heritage capsule steeped in unmistakable nineties football culture. Big thanks to @KamilBerberler.

The centerpiece of the range is a retro shirt dominated by Colo-Colo's traditional white, accented by subtle tonal shadow stripes running vertically down the body. It features oversized three stripes sweeping over the shoulders in bold black and red, paired with a chunky ribbed V-neck collar. Staying true to the era, the classic Adidas wordmark and Trefoil are placed centrally on the chest just above the iconic club crest.

Complementing the jersey, the wider lifestyle capsule includes a color-blocked track jacket, matching track pants, a graphic t-shirt, and a relaxed crewneck sweatshirt. The entire collection maintains the club's sharp black, white, and red palette, combining vintage paneling with modern streetwear silhouettes. The Adidas Colo-Colo EQT collection is slated for release in the coming weeks.

Kit Blunder: Matheus Cunha Wears Inverted Sleeve Badges in Manchester Derby

Manchester United striker Matheus Cunha was spotted sporting an unusual kit detail during Sunday's Manchester derby against Manchester City. Eagle-eyed kit enthusiasts quickly pointed out that the Brazilian forward took to the pitch with his sleeve badges completely reversed on his 26-27 home shirt.

Under standard Premier League kit regulations, the official competition badge and "No Room For Racism" patch must be applied to the player's right sleeve, while the left sleeve is reserved for the club's commercial sleeve partner. On Cunha's long-sleeve jersey, however, the configuration was flipped: the sponsor logo was applied to his right arm, leaving the Premier League badge positioned on his left sleeve.

Side-by-side images comparing Cunha's jersey to teammate Marcus Rashford clearly showed the contrast between the standard layout and Cunha's swapped sleeves. Whether caused by a mix-up in the kit room or an accidental printing error during match preparations, the subtle mistake provided a unique talking point for shirt collectors.
