May 14, 2026, by Chris
- Adidas Besiktas 26-27 Collection: A retro-inspired Adidas Originals collection for Beşiktaş was planned for the 2026-2027 season, including a t-shirt, track jacket, and ceremony jacket.
- Cancellation of Release: The Adidas collection will not be released due to Beşiktaş switching to Nike as their technical sponsor.
- Template Usage: The designs from the unreleased Beşiktaş collection will still be used by Adidas for other top-tier clubs in the 26-27 season.
Thanks to Turkish kit expert esvaphane, we get a look at the planned Adidas Originals collection for Beşiktaş for the 2026-2027 season.
Adidas Beşiktaş 26-27 Originals Collection
The unreleased Adidas Beşiktaş 26-27 Originals collection includes a retro-inspired t-shirt, a classic track jacket featuring the iconic Trefoil logo, and a striking ceremony jacket highlighted by a black and white checkerboard pattern across the shoulders. However, despite these fully realized designs being prepared for the upcoming campaign, this specific Adidas apparel will never see an official public launch.
The complete cancellation of this retro collection is the direct result of a last-minute change in the Turkish club's technical sponsor, with Nike stepping in to replace Adidas. Because the manufacturer switch occurred late in the standard apparel development cycle, Adidas had already produced physical samples of the intended gear. Consequently, only a very limited handful of these physical prototypes exist anywhere in the world, instantly turning them into rare pieces of unreleased football history.

While the Beşiktaş-branded versions of these items will never hit store shelves, the underlying structural designs will still be highly visible throughout the upcoming season. The garments seen in these leaked prototypes utilize the exact same standardized templates that Adidas has prepared for all of their top-tier clubs for the 26-27 campaign. Fans can expect to see these identical classic tracksuits and t-shirt formats adapted to the colors and crests of other major Adidas-sponsored teams.

Adidas have celebrated Lionel Messi's stunning free-kick goal in Argentina's 3-1 victory over Jordan at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Following the match, the brand posted an image of Messi wearing Argentina's 2026 away shirt with the number 19, paying tribute to the 19 World Cup goals he has scored across six tournament appearances. At the same time, the image serves as a nostalgic nod to the young Messi, who made his World Cup debut wearing the No. 19 shirt exactly 20 years ago.
The post features the caption "19 on his back, 19 in the back of the net" alongside "full circle. el ultimo tango", referencing his return to the squad number he first wore for the national team.
