- Rivalry Tension: 1860 Munich ultras displayed a banner with profanities directed at Bayern, expressing their anger at seeing Bayern players at their stadium.

Bayern Munich's recently unveiled 125th-anniversary kit has generated significant buzz among supporters - but not all of it positive. While Bayern fans have enthusiastically embraced the special edition jersey, the promotional photoshoot has sparked outrage from city rivals 1860 Munich.
The Controversy: Bayern's Photoshoot Location Angers City Rivalry
At home in the soulless Pampa, but into Giesing for the photo shoot. Red wh* out of our curve!
The controversy centers around Bayern's decision to conduct part of its promotional photoshoot at Grünwalder Stadion. During Friday's 3. Liga match between 1860 Munich and Arminia Bielefeld, 1860 ultras displayed a banner with profanities directed at Bayern, expressing their anger at seeing Manuel Neuer, Thomas Müller, and Lena Oberdorf modeling in their stands.
Bayern's choice of location was intentional, as the club aimed to celebrate its historical connection to the stadium where the club once played its home matches. According to the club's announcement, the anniversary kit design pays homage to "the three great venues of the club" - Grünwalder Stadion, Olympiastadion, and Allianz Arena.
However, Bayern's decision to make the photoshoot in the west stand, the stand of the 1860 Munich fans, could have been reconsidered. Bayern's fans are in the north stand when the second team plays at the stadium. Adidas "should" have made the photoshoot there, in our opinion.

No More Score: In-House Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 2026 Kits Released
The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Football Federation (SVGFF) has officially unveiled the new 2026 kit collection for the national team, nicknamed Vincy Heat. Marking a departure from previous technical sponsor Score, who had supplied the Caribbean side since 2021, the federation has opted to design and produce the new jerseys entirely in-house under the campaign moniker "Ours."
The launch showcases three distinct colorways directly inspired by the country's national flag: vibrant yellow, royal blue, and emerald green. All three kits share a unified template featuring a sharp V-neck collar, subtle contrast piping along the shoulders, and matching ribbed cuffs. Across the front and sleeves, each jersey incorporates a dynamic diagonal brushstroke graphic filled with repeating micro-motifs representing the three diamonds from the flag.
Contrasting details complete the look across the range, with royal blue trim and numbering adorning the primary yellow shirt, while bright yellow accents finish off the blue and green editions. Underpinned by slogans such as "Our Nation. Our Culture. Our Team" and "Wherever we go, we carry home," the new collection puts a strong emphasis on national identity as the team moves forward with its own branded apparel.

Japanese club V-Varen Nagasaki and technical partner Fanatics have officially unveiled their special Peace Prayer Uniform for the 26-27 season. The commemorative strip continues the club's annual initiative of releasing dedicated peace jerseys, sharing messages of peace from Nagasaki to the wider football world.
The 26-27 special edition is themed "Pray in Layers" and serves as a retrospective collage of symbols from the club's previous peace shirts. The vibrant design incorporates subtle motifs of the Nagasaki Peace Statue, the surrounding sea and sky, Unzen azaleas, olive leaves, origami paper cranes, doves, and feathers. The outfield jersey showcases these overlapping elements in a soft pastel watercolor palette over an off-white base, while the goalkeeper variant features the identical artwork treated in a tonal slate blue-grey aesthetic.
V-Varen Nagasaki will wear the new strip on October 21, 2026, in their Peace Match fixture against Sanfrecce Hiroshima. Offered in authentic player-issue specifications, the limited-edition jerseys are being made available through a brief pre-order window running until September 24 via the club's official store.
