What if Arsenal Would Release a Kit Based on an Unreleased 24-25 Retro Jacket?

American side Annapolis Blues FC have launched a member vote to select their official home kit for the 2027 campaign. The club, which competes in both USL League Two and the USL W League, has continued its tradition of community-driven design decisions by unveiling eight distinct Puma concepts for their supporters to choose from.

The eight proposals showcase a wide range of looks while keeping the Maryland club's signature royal blue palette, circular blue crab crest, and adaptic chest sponsorship. The options range from modern graphic looks—including a fading chest burst, jagged side accents, and quartered two-tone blocks—to classic aesthetics featuring a navy diagonal sash with gold detailing, a bold white chevron, horizontal bands, and refined pinstripes complete with a polo collar.

Voting is exclusively open to 2027 Season Membership Holders, who received their voting ballots directly by email. In addition to deciding the official matchwear for both the men's and women's squads, members will also receive the winning home jersey alongside a commemorative scarf as part of their membership benefits.

Hartlepool United and technical partner Meyba have officially unveiled the club's new third kit for the 2026-27 season. Directly inspired by the club's archives, the shirt serves as a modern reimagining of Pools' memorable 1995-96 away strip, combining unmistakable mid-nineties aesthetics with contemporary sportswear performance.

The Meyba Hartlepool United 26-27 third jersey features a striking split design. Its upper half is clean white, layered with bold angular diagonal stripes in red and pale blue that flow down into a solid red lower section detailed with subtle pale blue vertical pinstripes. The top is finished with a retro black polo-style collar that incorporates red trim and a functional zip neck. Additional bespoke touches include an embroidered ship's wheel crest, "Est 1908" placed beneath the outer back collar, and the rallying cry "NEVER SAY DIE" printed inside the collar.

Completing the nostalgic ensemble, local partner Camerons Brewery returns as the primary front-of-shirt sponsor, directly echoing the brewery's Strongarm branding seen on the original 1995-96 design. Matching red shorts and red socks round off the full kit.

Ninja A-League Women side Canberra United has officially unveiled its new home and away kits for the 26-27 season, crafted by Australian sportswear brand Konqa. The partnership between the club and the Melbourne-based manufacturer enters its second consecutive campaign after Konqa first took over United's kit production last year.

The Canberra United 26-27 home shirt arrives in the club's traditional bright green hue. It showcases a modern sublimated design featuring tonal diagonal brush strokes across the torso, paired with neat dark green and white detailing along the crew collar and cuffs. Gym chain Club Lime continues as the primary sponsor on the chest, positioned below a centrally placed Konqa logo and a raised silicone club crest topped with two championship stars.

Contrasting the vibrant home shirt, the 26-27 away jersey switches to a deep forest green base. It carries the same sharp graphic patterning sublimated throughout the fabric, finished with crisp white and bright lime trims around the neckline and sleeves. Supported by University of Canberra across the front, the new collection provides the capital club with a distinctive and cohesive visual identity for the upcoming campaign.

Brazilian side Agremiação Sportiva Arapiraquense (ASA) has officially announced a new technical partnership with sportswear brand Junpe Uniformes. The deal will see the São Paulo-based company take over as the club's official kit supplier starting with the 2027 season, replacing previous manufacturer Tolledo Sports.

The partnership marks another significant expansion for Junpe across Brazilian football. Founded in 2018 in Bernardino de Campos, the manufacturer has quickly built a strong presence in the domestic market, providing kits for roughly thirty clubs, including Alagoas rivals CSA as well as teams such as Brusque, São Bento, and Santo André.

ASA and Junpe are expected to present the club's new match kit and training collection ahead of the 2027 campaign, in which the Alvinegro will compete in the Campeonato Alagoano and national tournaments.

Nike and wellness technology brand Hyperice have officially launched their newest collaborative innovation, the Nike Air Zoom Hyperslide. Fronted by Liverpool captain and Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk, the high-tech slide is engineered to bring professional-grade post-match recovery into an effortless everyday silhouette. The release represents the second major chapter in the Nike x Hyperice partnership following their high-top Hyperboot debut.

Designed for travel and post-training downtime, the slides are TSA carry-on friendly and offer up to an hour of battery life via USB-C recharging. The Nike x Hyperice Air Zoom Hyperslide is available in both Black and Orewood Brown colorways for $249 via Nike, Hyperice, and select global stockists.
