Mar 26, 2026, by Chris
- Kit Supplier Change: Lecce will end its in-house kit manufacturing run under the M908 brand.
- Adidas Reunion: Lecce will return to Adidas as their kit supplier starting from the 2026-2027 season.
- 35-Year Gap: It has been approximately 35 years since Lecce last wore Adidas kits, marking a significant return for the brand.
We can reveal that Italian Serie A side U.S. Lecce is set to undergo a massive kit supplier change, ending one of the most notable in-house manufacturing runs in European football.
Lecce 26-27 Kits Made by Adidas
Since the 2018-2019 season, Lecce has produced its own completely bespoke kits under their very own in-house brand, M908. However, that era is coming to a close. We can confirm that Lecce will return to global sportswear giant Adidas starting from the upcoming 2026-2027 season.
This new deal marks a reunion. As seen in the club's kit history timeline, Adidas previously sponsored the Giallorossi for almost a decade between 1983 and 1992. By the time the new kits launch, it will have been roughly 35 years since Lecce last wore the famous Three Stripes.
