Footy Headlines can exclusively leak the official launch schedule for Adidas 2026-27 club kits. The upcoming release calendar will be heavily influenced by the 2026 World Cup in North America, resulting in a unique "split" schedule.
Adidas 26-27 Kit Release Dates
Here is the full roadmap for when you can expect the new 26-27 Adidas jerseys.
The most significant detail regarding the Adidas 2026 release cycle is a one-month pause. Adidas will halt all club kit releases from mid-June to mid-July. During this period, the brand will dedicate its entire marketing spotlight to the 2026 World Cup national team kits and collections.
Phase 1: Home Kits (Early - Mid May 2026)
Adidas will kick off the season in traditional fashion. The 26-27 Home Kits are scheduled to be released in early to mid-May 2026.
This standard timing allows clubs to debut their new home strips in the final matches of the 2025-26 domestic season.

Phase 2: Away Kits (Late July - Early August 2026)
Following the conclusion of the World Cup, the club cycle resumes. The 26-27 away kits, which will famously feature the return of the Trefoil logo and authentic badges, will be launched between late July and early August 2026.

Finally, the Adidas 26-27 third kits will drop later than they did in the 25-26 season. Fans can expect these to hit shelves in mid to late August 2026, coinciding with the start of the new Champions League campaigns.
