Swap 25-26 Kits for Fitting Teams
Inspired by a concept from the brilliant @hendocfc, we have created mock-ups of six 2025-26 kits that we think would be a perfect match for other top European teams. The results are surprisingly fitting.
Leicester City Third Kit -> Juventus Away Kit
The pink and black Adidas Leicester City third kit is a clean and modern design. Swapped onto Juventus, it becomes a perfect away kit, paying homage to the Rosanero color that is a huge part of the club's history.
Club Brugge Away Kit -> Marseille Away Kit
Castore's effort for Club Brugge's away kit is a simple white shirt with beautiful sky-blue accents on the collar and cuffs. This color combination is the absolute definition of Olympique de Marseille, making for a seamless and natural-looking swap.
Leicester City Home Kit -> Chelsea Home Kit
Another Leicester kit that would suit a rival perfectly. The royal blue, gold logos, and subtle pinstripes of the Foxes' home shirt create a look that is instantly reminiscent of some of Chelsea's most popular and classy kits from the past.
FC Midtjylland Home Kit -> AC Milan Home Kit
The classic red and black stripes of the Rossoneri are iconic. While the stripes on the FC Midtjylland home kit are a bit different, the color scheme is a perfect match for AC Milan, showing how a different take on the stripes could look.
Partizan Belgrade Away Kit -> FC Barcelona Home Kit
The unique graphic on Partizan Belgrade's away kit, combined with the classic blue and red colors, creates a fantastic modern look for FC Barcelona's famous Blaugrana.
Newcastle GK Third Kit -> Borussia Dortmund Home Kit
Perhaps the most perfect swap of all. The vibrant yellow and black Adidas Trefoil design for Newcastle's third goalkeeper kit is practically a ready-made Borussia Dortmund home shirt. It's a match made in heaven.
