Olise Likes "Proper Collar" & "Simple Red" Kit
- Olise's Kit Passion: Michael Olise is an avid shirt collector who saves his favorite jerseys to remember specific eras, players, and events.
- Ideal Bayern Kit: Olise envisions a minimalist Bayern Munich kit that is simply red with a few stripes, white accents, and a traditional collar.
- Shirt Collection Goals: Olise wants to expand his collection by acquiring the shirts of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Neymar.
In the official club magazine, Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise has not only posed in classic kits but also revealed his deep passion for football shirts and shared his exact vision for a dream Bayern Munich kit.
Michael Olise About Football Kits
Speaking to the official club member magazine '51', the French international confirmed that he is an avid shirt collector away from the pitch. Olise explained that he saves his favorite jerseys from every single season, noting that football shirts stand for specific eras, players, and events that he likes to remember. This true appreciation for kit culture makes his thoughts on the perfect Bayern Munich kit particularly interesting for fans.
When asked how he would personally design a future Bayern Munich kit, Olise stated that he prefers a very clean and classic aesthetic over modern graphics. He described his ideal Bayern Munich kit as being entirely minimalist, opting for a design that is "simply red, maybe with a few stripes and a few white accents." Furthermore, the attacker specifically highlighted his strong preference for a proper, traditional collar to complete the look.
Olise's love for collared kits stands in stark contrast to Toni Kroos, who "hates collared" kits.
A traditional red design with minimal white detailing and a classic fold-over collar would perfectly align with the historic visual identity of the Bavarian giants. It is exactly the type of retro-inspired look that many traditionalists have been demanding for a new Bayern Munich kit for several years.
Alongside his thoughts on kit design, Olise also discussed his ongoing mission to expand his personal collection. While he regularly uses the opportunity to swap shirts with friends and former teammates after matches, his collection is still missing a few highly coveted pieces. Looking ahead to the upcoming 2026 World Cup, he named Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Neymar as the three legends whose shirts he still desperately wants to acquire.

Turkey 2026 World Cup Pre-Match Shirt Revealed - Streamlined Nike Template for Smaller Nations
Nike's preparations for the 2026 World Cup are being finalized with the reveal of the new Turkey pre-match shirt.
Rather than receiving a bespoke design, the new Nike Turkey 2026 World Cup pre-match jersey utilizes a highly visible, streamlined template that the American sportswear brand will be rolling out across its wider portfolio of sponsored national federations.
The defining feature of the Turkey 2026 pre-match shirt is its bold, all-over geometric graphic. The template consists of tightly packed, wavy zig-zag lines that warp and curve to create a dynamic optical illusion across the entire torso and sleeves. For the Turkish national team, this busy pattern is executed in vibrant, contrasting shades of red and dark orange.
Nike is applying this exact same streamlined template to several other national teams, simply adjusting the color palettes to suit each country. European sides like Norway and Finland, alongside South American heavyweights Uruguay, will all sport identical pre-match designs featuring their respective national colors applied to the same wavy graphic.
