2024 Japanese J League Kit Overview - All 20 Teams' Kits
- League Changes: The 2024 J League will have 20 teams, following the departure of two teams from the previous season.
- Kit Manufacturers: Major brands like Adidas, Nike, and Puma outfit a significant portion of the league, while some kits come from less globally known brands.
- Kit Design: The majority of 2024 J League kits are bespoke, with the exception of two teams using customized Adidas templates, but most kits are heavily sponsored with six logos each.
The 2024 J League will see 20 teams after two teams left the league. Now, one month ahead of the start on 24 February 2024, almost all 2024 Japanse J League kits have been released - we take a look at all, in cooperation with Football Kit Archive.

These are all home kits of the 2024 J League (via @waserin_PES - created with FIFA Kit Creator).
The 2024 J League kits all have 100% bespoke looks, with the exception of the Adidas-sponsored Albirex Niigata and Machida Zelvia, whose kits are customized Adidas Locker Room templates.
What is surely a downside compared to the kits of Europe and the USA is that the J League teams have as many as six sponsors - three on the front, two on the back, and one on the sleeves.

Leaked: Adidas Originals River Plate Retro Shirt Hints at 26-27 Away Kit
We have the first image of a brand-new Adidas Originals River Plate retro shirt. It is part of the team's 26-27 away collection.
The River Plate retro shirt features a color-blocked design reminiscent of classic 1980s sportswear. The upper half of the torso and the raglan sleeves are solid red, while the lower half is crisp white. Separating the two sections is a prominent, thick black horizontal chest band. A classic white Adidas Trefoil logo and the traditional River Plate shield sit high on the chest, keeping the design completely free of modern sponsors for a pure, vintage aesthetic.
Vitória SC Announces Hummel Kit Deal
Vitória Sport Clube has officially announced a new five-year technical sponsorship deal with Hummel, beginning with the 2026-27 season. The Danish sportswear brand will supply the Portuguese club's match kits, training gear, and lifestyle apparel until the end of the 2030-31 campaign. This agreement brings an end to Vitória SC's decade-long partnership with Macron, who had been the club's kit maker since the 2016-17 season.
The club described the new agreement as a "return to the past to project into the future," referencing Hummel's previous stint as Vitória SC's kit supplier during 1992-92.

It incorporates two different tones of violet and is highlighted by a custom graphic showcasing the Hohensalzburg fortress and the towers of the old town, representing the team's local identity and heritage.
The Capelli SV Austria Salzburg 2026-27 home football shirt is available to purchase immediately through the club's official fanshop, retailing at a price of 69 Euro.
Glentoran 26-27 Home Kit Released
Glentoran and Macron have launched the club's new 2026-27 home kit for the upcoming NIFL Premiership campaign. The design pays homage to the classic 1992-93 shirt worn during their memorable European Cup tie against Marseille, featuring a green body with red sleeves and shoulder panels separated by black trim.
Giving the shirt a distinct early 1990s retro feel, a red fold-over collar is included with black striping and a black V-shaped insert at the front. A tonal graphic pattern runs across both the green and red sections, adding texture to the Macron Eco Fabric. The Macron Hero logo appears in white on the chest and sleeves, sitting opposite the stitched Glentoran crest and its accompanying gold star.
Additional details include the club motto Le Jeu Avant Tout embroidered in white on the back of the collar, and Glentoran FC Est 1882 printed inside the lower hem. Featuring Bet McLean as the main sponsor, the new Glentoran 2026-27 home shirt is completed with matching white shorts and green socks.
