- Farewell Kit: 1. FC Köln released a special "LP10" kit for Lukas Podolski's farewell match, which was worn by him and his teammates.
- Kit Design: The kit replicates the design of the 2003-04 home shirt that Podolski wore in his first home game, but is made by Hummel, the current kit manufacturer.
- Unique Details: The kit has unique features including a lenticular sleeve detail, embossed text on the back collar and the collar that lists his time at the club, games played and goals scored.
Update: The special 1. FC Köln kit for Lukas Podolski, called LP10, was used by the former German international and his teammates in his farewell match. Podolski also wore customized boots inspired by the city of Köln and his former club.
Köln launched a special Podolski shirt that pays homage to the shirt the back-then 18-year-old wore in his first home game for the club in 2003. It is made by current manufacturer Hummel and not by Saller, the club's 2003-04 kit maker.

The 1. FC Köln 2024 LP10 shirt replicates the look of the 2003-04 home shirt, which was made by back-then supplier Saller. It is white with red logos and applications.
Various details make the Podolski farewell kit unique. A special lenticular on the right sleeve shows the LP10 logo/city coat of arms. The back collar features the embossed "KÖLSCHE JUNG" (Cologne Young)"– LP10".
The collar reads:
- 'Lukas Podolski'
- '2003-2006, 2009-2012' (the two periods he played for Köln)

Adidas Reuses Spain’s 2026 Training Kits
During recent UEFA Nations League training sessions, Spain was spotted using old training jerseys with one star removed and two additional stars printed above the logo. The imprint of the old star remains visible on the shirts.
This case is reminiscent of another interesting situation involving the Argentina futsal team at the 2021 Futsal World Cup. Despite being the defending champions, Argentina was not provided bespoke kits by Adidas and had to use standard jerseys, from which two stars were removed and replaced with one, as they had only won the Futsal World Cup once.
Big thanks to @whatthekit_x for the collages.
