Kit Creator has added 18 new retro templates inspired by iconic 1990s and early-2000s designs from Adidas and Nike.
Retro Templates Added to Kit Creator
The Kit Creator update includes faithful recreations of classic design structures, ranging from bold diagonal panels and oversized three-stripe executions to early-2000s Nike layouts. These templates are one-to-one recreations of memorable club kits from the era, offering creators the chance to rebuild or reinterpret some of the most distinctive looks in modern football history.
To showcase the new additions, we created two concept kits using the retro templates. The first is a white, black and gold concept for Real Madrid CF, based on a classic 1990s Adidas template. The design combines a traditional white base with strong black contrast panels and gold detailing.
The second concept reimagines FC Barcelona using an early-2000s Nike template.
Footy Headlines has been granted early access to Kit Vision
We also produced realistic player mockups using Kit Vision (currently unreleased - coming soon), featuring Kylian Mbappé and Lamine Yamal wearing the concept shirts. The mockups give a clear idea of how these retro-inspired templates translate onto modern player fits and silhouettes.
The addition of these 18 templates significantly expands the creative possibilities within Kit Creator, especially for users looking to revive late-90s and early-2000s aesthetics.

Mexico Ruins Retro EQT Jacket with Sponsor Placement
The Adidas Mexico 2026 World Cup EQT track jacket has officially made its real-world debut, but the on-player reality has left many fans disappointed, as highlighted by Tigres and Mexico kit experts @TigersJersey.
While the core design faithfully recreates the iconic 1990s Equipment aesthetic with its bold black, green, white, and red color-blocking, the Mexican Football Federation has plastered the front of the garment with corporate sponsors. The logos for AT&T, Amazon, Coca-Cola, and Caliente.mx have been heavily applied across the midsection, disrupting the 3 bars.
This is surely because of sponsor guidelines and contracts, but they should have find a better solution here.

The Norwegian national football team has released a Viking-inspired group photograph via its official channels to mark preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Captured by renowned photographer David Yarrow in Oslo, the image shows the squad in authentic attire assembled beside a fjord, with longboats in the background, reflecting the country's historical narrative and the supporters' Viking row tradition.
Norway returns to the World Cup for the first time since 1998, led by captain Martin Ødegaard and star striker Erling Haaland. The photoshoot took place last weekend, with Ødegaard digitally added after he was unavailable due to the Champions League final. A separate image including coaching and technical staff was also produced.
The NFF embraced the theme to highlight team unity and cultural heritage as the squad prepares for the tournament in Canada, Mexico and the United States.
