Austria Wien 26-27 Third Kit Released - Inspired by Gustav Klimt
Macron and Austrian Bundesliga club FK Austria Wien have officially launched their new third kit for the 2026-27 season. Dubbed the "Kunsttrikot" (art jersey), the special release draws direct inspiration from Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt and his world-renowned masterpiece, "Der Kuss" (The Kiss), completing the club's set for the campaign.
The Austria Wien 26-27 third shirt comes in a rich cardinal red base decorated with gold details throughout. Across the body and sleeves, an intricate embossed texture incorporates the contrasting rectangular and circular patterns famously featured in Klimt's work. The design is rounded off with a traditional buttoned polo collar edged in gold trim, matching sleeve cuffs, and monochrome gold silicone applications for the club crest and Macron Hero logo. Special touches include "Spielkultur" on the outer neck and an inner neck tape honoring legendary captains Sara, Prohaska, Hussack, Nausch, and Fiala.
Matching cardinal red shorts and socks complete the kit, which is crafted from 100% recycled Eco Softlock polyester. Austria Wien are initially making the 26-27 third shirt available in a run of 1,000 limited-edition collector gallery boxes before a general release.

The new front-of-shirt look makes its on-pitch debut when London City take on Manchester United on September 4, 2026.

Alongside the front-of-shirt sponsorship, the club and Nike have agreed to a four-year extension of their technical kit supply partnership, locking in the Swoosh from the 27-28 season onwards. This expands on their existing apparel arrangement first established ahead of the 25-26 campaign.

The design also pays tribute to club founder José Ballester Gozalvo and his wife Teresa Molins Gausach.
Navy blue shorts with matching off-white and cardinal red details alongside hooped socks complete the full look. Levante UD will debut the new 26-27 fourth kit on September 6, 2026, against Málaga CF at the Ciutat de València to coincide with the club's 117th anniversary.
