Update - Sunday, May 10, 2026: Our sources indicate that Bayern Munich might have opted against bringing back the stripes design as a match kit in 2027, but we cannot confirm anything yet. Football kit designer Final Third Creative has created a concept that shows off how beautiful such a kit could be.
The Bayern Munich kit design incorporates the classic Adidas Trefoil logo and serves as an imaginative design exercise, experimenting with a unique purplish hue for the traditional red and blue striping.

The special shirt will not be released for general retail sale. Only 130 individually numbered copies have been produced, each accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

English non-league side Salisbury FC have officially unveiled their new 26-27 third kit, brought back following the squad's recent tour of Kuwait. The release complements the club's home and away strips that were launched earlier in the summer.
The Salisbury FC 26-27 third shirt features a vibrant yellow base contrasted with royal blue accents. A retro-inspired blue collar with a v-neck insert frames the neckline, while dynamic blue striped graphics run down the sleeves and lower flanks. Continuing the club's deep ties to Kuwait under owner Ali Alhamad, the chest prominently displays the Arabic script logo of a Kuwaiti digital bank alongside the club crest.

Independiente del Valle 2026 Commemorative Kit Released
Ecuadorian powerhouse Independiente del Valle has teamed up with Marathon Sports to launch a special commemorative kit for the final stretch of the 2026 campaign. Designed as an end-of-the-year release, the new shirt will be worn by Los Rayados in their remaining LigaPro and Copa Ecuador fixtures as they push for silverware.
The Marathon Independiente del Valle 2026 commemorative jersey introduces a fresh color twist on the club's signature look. Dominated by a sleek black base, the shirt is highlighted by a wide vertical pink stripe running down the center of the chest with a subtle brushstroke texture. The IDV crest takes center stage directly inside the stripe beneath the Marathon logo, accompanied by matching pink trim on the collar and sleeve cuffs alongside crisp white sponsor graphics.
This special release stands apart from IDV's regular 2026 home shirt, which used blue detailing rather than the bold pink seen here. The jersey was unveiled following an exclusive blindfolded preview event for club members and is now available through official Marathon Sports stores and online retailers.
